    Wonderful afternoon baking delicious treats

    A group of 8 of us went to Davenford for the Afternoon Tea Making Experience for a hen do. We had a wonderful time! It was a cosy atmosphere with the baking stations set up and the table for the afternoon tea beautifully laid out. We thoroughly enjoyed learning baking tips and tricks from the amazing Bev and loved the hands on experience of making a variety of things: jam, lemon posset, scones, chocolate cake and Victoria sponge. Of course, the best part was sitting down to enjoy the delicacies we had made. Everything was delicious and we had plenty of leftovers to box up and take home with us. We really appreciated the little touches: a special apron for the bride-to-be, accessories to dress up for the afternoon tea and personalized attention for the whole afternoon. It was a memorable afternoon and I would highly recommend the Afternoon Tea Making Experience for anyone who enjoys baking, eating, and is looking to make special memories with family and friends.

    Highly recommended baking experience!

    My mom and I had a fabulous time with the Afternoon Tea Baking Experience! The team was welcoming and the baking experience was very well thought out and executed. Regardless of your personal baking experience, anyone can have a a great time. I can't recommend this class highly enough - such a fun way to add a hands on (and tasty) element to a trip!

    Afternoon Tea Experience Cooking Class: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Oxford.

    How much does Afternoon Tea Experience Cooking Class cost?

    +

    Prices start at $180 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Oxford usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Afternoon Tea Experience Cooking Class take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Oxford is not rushed.

    Is Afternoon Tea Experience Cooking Class worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 45 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Oxford, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Afternoon Tea Experience Cooking Class?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Afternoon Tea Experience Cooking Class suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Afternoon Tea Experience Cooking Class?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Oxford can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Oxford and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Afternoon Tea Experience Cooking Class start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Oxford within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Oxford?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Oxford experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cotswolds in a Day Tour from Moreton-in-Marsh / Stratford-on-Avon, Oxford University Walking Tour With University Alumni Guide, Oxford Official University & City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Oxford?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Oxford?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Afternoon Tea Experience Cooking Class?

    +

    Included: Lunch; Snacks; Equipment to complete the class; Guide; and Tea and coffee. Not included: Private transportation. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Afternoon Tea Experience Cooking Class?

    +

    You are welcome to head into our Davenford Tea Room on High Street, then you will be greeted by the manager on sight and they will prepare you for the lovely class ahead! Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Afternoon Tea Experience Cooking Class offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Afternoon Tea Experience Cooking Class?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Afternoon Tea Experience Cooking Class wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Afternoon Tea Experience Cooking Class if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Oxford. Standard cancellation terms apply.
