Afternoon Tea at One Aldwych
A ruby red ‘Cocktail Charlie’, bubbling away under a cloud of smoking dry ice in a teapot, made up of a mixture of whisky, cherry marnier, chocolate bitters and champagne.
Afternoon Tea at Lanes of London
Lanes of London, previously criticised for its ‘concept’ heavy menu, ticks all the right boxes for afternoon tea with fresh, hot scones, cakes and sandwiches.
Afternoon Tea at Brown’s Hotel
The soaring atriums are furnished in a clean biscuit-brown wood and with cosseting fireplaces and armchairs, and a pianist adds to the easy atmosphere.
Afternoon Tea at Kettners
Try the afternoon tea with free-flowing Prosecco and unlimited sandwiches, cakes and scones for £37.50. This can be had from 1-4pm on Mondays through to Fridays.
The Rosebery at Mandarin Oriental
The tiered tea stands are hung like birdcages on bronze branches, strengthening the feeling of being in a fairytale garden, and their edible contents are exceptional.
Afternoon Tea at Corinthia Hotel, Embankment
Afternoon tea can be had for £58 pp with additional glass of Laurent-Perrier. This is one I will be thinking of ardently, and returning to imminently.
