    I've been to the Meyrick and loved it, Ardilaun is beautiful for the grounds. There's a place called corrib tea rooms (I think, I'll check) down the back of the court house that I loved, must call in again. Then glenlo has recently upped it's game and is worth a look also..

    For a different vibe the secret garden back the west is a place I like for speciality teas..

    Absolutely in love with this place recently.

    Cupan Tae down at the Spanish Arch also seems to be a lovely atmosphere for a quaint afternoon tea.

    I second that motion. Kelly's used to be the best, I wonder if Seven do brunch?

    Harbour Hotel have a living social deal that you may find interesting, OP.

    I had a lovely afternoon tea at the Radisson a while back, which was part of a spa package. Worth a look to see if they still do a similar deal.

    Harbour Hotel Afternoon Tea is very poor, recently availed of that voucher, not worth €5 each.

    Ham and cheese sandwiches on white batch bread should not be called afternoon tea

    Gourmet tart on a Sunday IMHO. Brioche French toast with vanilla cream cheese and lemon poppyseed drizzle.... Drool

    Glenlo or Cupán Tae get my vote. Meyrick, Radisson, The G and Corrib Tea rooms lovely too. Glenlo was the best by a mile.
