Great thread, we can pretend it's still the season.

I'm going out on a limb here to say the thing most of us miss the most about teas these days is the slices of bread and jam you normally have at the end. With a cup of strong tea it's just perfect.

I don't know why this vanished from the norm and I think it's tragic  :)

Not sure how I missed this thread! Think I am pretty spoilt for teas where I play

1. Bacon and Egg pie, still warm. Either with ketchup or fresh tomatoes

2. Individual Eton Mess. Captain produced these this season for a couple of games, absolute winner. Rewarded him in the shower after the game

3. Cornish cream tea. Is there anything better? Shout out to the ladies at Redruth CC, when we played there in June the scones were unbelievable. Think I had 3 or 4. Followed with being bowled by a loopy off spinner for 0. Dont regret it

I think the weather needs to be factored in here.

if it is stinking hot then melon, oranges etc are a winner.

If it is freezing then roll out the pizza, sausages and chips/roast potatoes please!

Think our teas at Eaton Socon are up there with the best in the country! But it's a bit wasted on me as i really don't like to eat during a game  :(

Though, my 3 favourites would be: Tomato Pasta, Crisps & Fruit!

Agreed, weather is a huge factor. Will always remember getting lasagna and chips on the hottest day of the year! Nightmare

Call me controversial but... I don't care for cricket teas, unless it's a classic village Sunday friendly.

Seniorplayer - yes indeed, I'm with you with the onions. My better half does our 1st XI teas and I think I might be the only person that has the onions... Our most popular item is hot jerk chicken (ironic as I don't eat chicken...). Best teas in the league (in my humble opinion...).

My top three are:- strawberry & cream scones; homemade potato salad; cheese 'n' onion sausage rolls. 

I'm peckish now.

I'm with you! I'd rather just have a drink and a bit of pasta at Tea and have some proper food afterwards!

Anything else goes but without it, it’s just not Cricket teas!
