Afternoon Tea

Where to get the classic British tradition of sandwiches, scones and sweet treats, with tea and sometimes bubbles. Many book up months ahead, and the most popular cannot seat a walk-in at all.

Afternoon Tea at The Connaught

Tea in a dining room hung with Louise Bourgeois, with a chocolate fondue at the end of it.

HotelOver £80

This one happens in Jean-Georges at The Connaught, which is a restaurant rather than a lounge, and the room is the argument: art by Louise Bourgeois, stained glass by Jean-Michel Othoniel, illustrations by Jean Jullien, and windows onto the traffic of Mount Street.

The sandwiches take British fillings and push some of them towards South-East Asia; the scones come with Cornish clotted cream, homemade strawberry jam and lemon curd; and it finishes with a chocolate fondue, which no other tea on this list does. A harpist plays from Friday to Sunday.
