Several tarts, not all, get to the table (5)
I believe the answer is:
altar
'to the table' is the definition.
(altar is a kind of table)
'several tarts not all' is the wordplay.
'not all' indicates a hidden word (only some of the letters).
'ALTAR' is hidden within 'several tarts'.
'get' is the link.
(Other definitions for altar that I've seen before include "Sacred table" , "Sacrificial table" , "Sacrificial slab" , "Place for sacrifices" , "Part of church" .)
