Not long now until it’s time to raise a little finger and partake of one of the UK’s more charming traditions.. Here’s a few we brewed up earlier for you.

Afternoon Sea at The Mayfair Chippy, Mayfair and Knightsbridge 

Indulge in The Mayfair Chippy’s Afternoon ‘Sea’ – a maritime take on a classic Afternoon tea. Available for pre-order, this includes a multitude of dishes guaranteed to deliver an Afternoon Tea Week experience like no other.

Dive into Cornish crab on toast with treacle cured salmon, celeriac and mustard slaw and pickled cockles, as well as Atlantic crab claws, King prawns, Carlingford oysters and cooked mussels. All served with freshly baked sourdough and a selection of sauces. And for a truly special occasion, enjoy a bottle of English sparkling alongside and raise a toast to a tradition that never goes out of style.

Afternoon Tea at The Greenhouses

For an Afternoon Tea experience with a difference, indulge in The Greenhouses’ Middle Eastern-inspired Afternoon Tea – a vibrant take on a timeless British tradition.

Served in the enchanting surroundings of The Greenhouses’ beautifully designed private dining rooms at One Marylebone and One Smithfield, each intimate space blends lush botanical styling with elegant interiors to create a truly memorable setting for celebrations and special occasions.

Delight in delicate finger sandwiches filled with pomegranate-cured salmon and roast marinated beets, before indulging in Valrhona chocolate delice and freshly baked spiced fruit scones served with fig and molasses jam. Whether you’re toasting a milestone or escaping the hustle and bustle of the city, this luxurious Afternoon Tea pairs exceptional flavours with an equally gorgeous venue. 

The Greenhouses Marylebone have also just launched ‘Afternoons in Bloom’ – a collection of carefully curated, ticketed experiences designed to delight the senses, spark connection, and turn an ordinary weekend into something worth remembering, each one deliciously incorporating afternoon tea. Upcoming events include a Fragrance Blending Afternoon Tea with Ribbon & Bow on Sunday 2nd August.
