    Only one problem very difficult for someone with walking difficulties to climb all those stairs. Think this makes it impossible for some people with mobility problems to enjoy this experience. Should be some way you could accommodate people who cannot use the stairs some alternative.

    Enjoyable experience - staff were very attentive- great you could have a second round of sandwiches (always my favourite bit). Definitely worth booking if visiting York Christmas Market.

    I have been to bettys for afternoon tea in the Belmont suite for the last few years and always been very nice but this year me and my family was disappointed in the service and food especially the service. We will not be coming in the future as the price price was not worth it .

    Betty’s was as always a beautiful place for a treat of afternoon tea, the atmosphere is amazing, food was delicious, great value for money. We visited at 2pm we were not rushed to leave the table so had plenty of time to enjoy ourselves, and to top it all it left us feeling full for the rest of the day. Overall a thoroughly wonderful experience
