CORNISH CREAM TEA
Fancy a traditional Cornish Cream
Tea but can’t face the drive?
Then stroll along to the Wallace
Collection on Manchester Square
and treat yourself to a selection of
‘finger’ sandwiches, a homemade
scone with clotted cream and jam,
plus a refreshing cuppa. There is a
Champagne option, too, of course,
but no sea view.
gENTlEMAN’S AfTERNOON TEA
The partaking of afternoon tea is
often viewed as a predominantly
female pursuit but The Reform
Social & Grill at the Mandeville
Hotel has created an imaginative
gentleman’s version (above).
Taking its inspiration from the
gentleman’s clubs, The Reform
Social & Grill serves an Afternoon
Tea with a distinct, masculine twist.
A selection of all-time favourites,
including ‘finger’ sandwiches and
Victoria sponge cakes, are offered
alongside Welsh beef burgers, a
hanger steak and Herefordshire
snails sandwich, a honey and
mustard sausage roll – and a
Lagavulin whisky cocktail.
With the restaurant’s relaxed
and sophisticated setting, this is the
perfect place for the man about
town to entertain guests or while
away the hours with a newspaper,
a game of backgammon or poker.
CHOCOlATE AfTERNOON TEA
A speciality of The Landmark
London, The Chocolate Afternoon
Tea offers a wide selection of sticky
treats including chocolate and
orange madeleines, white chocolate
and mint macaroons, chocolate
and raspberry crèmes brûlées, and
chocolate-dipped strawberries.
The hotel serves a more
Traditional Afternoon Tea, too,
with a luxury assortment of
sandwiches, freshly baked scones
and French pastries, plus a choice
of leaf and herbal teas.
The Landmark is also known
for its Taittinger Champagne
Afternoon Tea (pictured opposite).
