Small delights for afternoon tea

A Tale Of Two Elizabeths

From the ‘Royal Warrant’ Salmon & Caviar Bliss and Monarch’s Coronation Chicken Royale, inspired by Elizabeth II’s famous 1953 coronation dish, to the Elizabeth I Syllabub, a pastry royally adorned with a sable as a nod to the Virgin Queen’s love of these sweet confections, this symbolic spread celebrates the reigns of these two majestic monarchs.

Hand-selected by Tea Master, Lalith Lenadora, our new tea menu features over 20 infusions from across the globe, including three exclusively curated blends, such as the Elizabeth II, crafted with rooibos from South Africa, vanilla from Sri Lanka and delicate rose petals as an ode to the Commonwealth.

A Regal Experience

Dine like a true monarch with desserts such as our British apple and cinnamon syllabub, a favourite of the 16th-century Elizabeth, before relishing a rich chocolate biscuit cake inspired by our late queen’s affinity for the treat.

No afternoon tea is complete without an assortment of savoury sandwiches to balance the sweet pastries, especially our regal Scottish bliss and Champagne and caviar éclair.

Each morsel is served on the finest Renaissance Gold teaware set by Wedgwood, a Royal Warrant holder, for an authentic regal experience.
Exquisite Blends

Exquisite Blends

Tea was more than a social occasion for the two queens, it was a cherished ritual. Elizabeth I, known for her patronage of The East India Company founded in 1600 during her reign, turned tea into an exclusive experience shared with her closest confidants. Sharing a passion for this formal pleasure, Elizabeth I enjoyed a freshly brewed morning pot of a personalised blend.

Hand-selected by Tea Master, Lalith Lenadora, our new tea menu features over 20 infusions from across the globe, including three exclusively curated blends, such as the Elizabeth II, crafted with rooibos from South Africa, vanilla from Sri Lanka and delicate rose petals as an ode to the Commonwealth.
