A Little History.
The tradition of high tea evolved from a cheeky afternoon meal of tea and bread, snuck into the chambers of the Duchess of Bedford in 17th Century England to stave off hunger as she waited for her man to return home for the late evening meal.
As influential young men discussed politics over increasingly long lunches, stylish women of the day grasped afternoon tea as a social outlet to discuss ‘tea business’ – topics not deemed fit for conversation in mixed company.
High tea has transcended history to become one of today’s most popular and enduring ways to break from routine and share cherished moments with family and friends.
How to Book
Seatings are available for groups of 2 to 35 people – ideal for your next celebration, or making a special occasion of your next social catch-up!
