High Tea in St. Bees

... Insert Image ...

We are hungry after our long rail journey and stop for a leasurely high tea at ‘Platform 9’, which is adjacent to the railway station at St. Bees, so we don’t have far to walk.

‘Platform 9’ is a local eatery specialising in fresh local ingredients including eggs from local chickens, and vegetables and herbs grown in local gardens.

Wanting to enjoy the local flavours of the journey, I am weighing up between ordering the ‘Trenchman’s Platter’ and ‘Prawn Marie Rose’. What can I order for you, Kathy? (Sample menus can be found at http://platform9.co.uk/menus/p9_bar.pdf and http://platform9.co.uk/menus/p9_menusnack.htm ).

Revived, we book in to our B and B accommodation, then walk down to the beach and dip our tired feet in the bracing waters of the Irish Sea.
