Afternoon Tea

Afternoon tea has been a tradition in England ever since it was introduced by the seventh Duchess of Bedford in 1840, who began having tea and a snack between lunch and dinner to stave off her hunger. She soon started invited friends along to enjoy her newfound habit, and the Afternoon Tea was born.

No trip to London is complete without enjoying a selection of delicate pastries, scones, and precision-cut finger sandwiches with a side of your favourite tea. Luckily, Greenwich is full of beautiful cafés and even an exquisite orangery for you to while away a few hours celebrating an anniversary or special occasion with your friends and family. You can also have tea in one of the most unique locations in the country – underneath the glittering hull of the Cutty Sark!
