    Talking High Teas

    Does anyone know of anywhere in Thurso that still does High Teas? My kids are just at the age (4 and 2) where i would quite like to attempt to take them to a family meal somewhere!!!!!! and the fact i could tempt them to behave if they wanted cakes!!!!

    Castle arms in Mey used to do them, resonable price too, give them a ring and order in advance, we used to.

    The Comm in Halkirk sometimes does them on a Sunday and I'm sure I have seen a notice outside the St Clair in Castletown so you could maybe give them a phone to see. Have fun

    Please excuse my ignorance, but what exactly is a "high tea" ?

    Default High Teas

    A meal where you can have a main course but on the side lots of scones,pancakes and cakes
    as opposed to dinner since bar suppers have become fashionable high teas have become less and less

    tried to explain a bit lolabelle
    Its nice to be nice

    Sounds like something I should try.

    The Central used to do them on Sundays but only in the Dining Room which is through the door to the left as you get to the top of the stairs.

    Default high tea

    The Northern Sands Hotel, Dunnet do a high tea for £7.50. Cakes are lovely and there are great choices on the menu.
