Whimsical & playful

From the theatrical smoking pink lemonade, to the surprising and delicious sweetshop-themed cakes – just imagine biting into a Coca-Cola slice – our whimsical afternoon tea brings a playful, bygone area to vivid life. Scrumptious chocolate scones and mouthwatering finger sandwiches such as finely-sliced smoked salmon on beetroot bread, are accompanied by a gloriously long tea list, or perhaps an indulgent glass of Champagne.

We are delighted to share that our delicious Afternoon Tea is available for collection or delivery to London postcodes in Zone 1 - 4.
