Gunners Barracks is a historic sandstone building with superb ocean views. I have dined in the Tea Room three times and their cakes, pastries and sandwiches have always been delicious.

With its large floor to ceiling windows, the Park Hyatt has the best address overlooking Sydney Harbour across to the iconic Opera House. Their Afternoon Tea is a three tier indulgence of delicious treats with warm scones crowned with sugar crystals. When our family celebrated my daughter's birthday at the Park Hyatt, she received a delicate silky smooth chocolate mousse birthday cake with a candle, compliments of the hotel. It was a seriously good-tasting surprise. Served 2.30pm – 5.00pm. Price is $55 per person or $70 with a flute of Moet & Chandon Rose champagne.

10. Ambassador Restaurant

Within the gorgeous landscaped gardens of Ryde TAFE is the Ambassador Restaurant , a wonderful training ground for future chefs and those who wish to enter the hospitality industry. I have dined at the Ambassador several times for lunch and dinner and have never been disappointed. As this restaurant is a base for catering students to learn practical skills, the cost is minimal. The high tea is prepared by the Le Cordon Bleu patisserie students twice a term without drinks.
