Western hotel with varied tea and cereal (5)
I believe the answer is:
wheat
'cereal' is the definition.
(I know that wheat is a type of cereal)
'western hotel with varied tea' is the wordplay.
'western' becomes 'w'.
'hotel' becomes 'h' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'varied' indicates anagramming the letters.
'tea' with letters rearranged gives 'eat'.
'w'+'h'+'eat'='WHEAT'
'and' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for wheat that I've seen before include "Grain crop" , "Cereal for bread/pasta" , "Tall grass producing light brown grain" , "Cereal grain" , "Annual grass with light brown grains" .)
