My husband and I have an afternoon tea every Saturday at home. My Mother did the same. When it is spring or summer, we take it in the garden. It’s an English tradition that I like to keep going. We do not always have scones, tomorrow we’ll be having hot cross buns as it is Easter weekend.

I work in hospitality and spend most of my time in central London. Afternoon tea is a serious profit earner!! The GM of an extremely well-known hotel once told me that his costs, on average per person, are about £3.00 for afternoon tea. At the time, he was selling it from £63.00 upwards. He also said, that as a general rule, he’s booked out about three months in advance.

TripsandFeasts .............absolute rubbish..........there is no way in hell it would cost just £3 to make all the products served in a well known hotel even just for the cost of raw materials wholesale without staff wages/time making the edible products...........try making A/tea at home yourself and youll quickly find your comment was BS.

How do you know that Geoff? My source of information (told to me in 2019) is the GM (general manager) of the entire hotel. He’s not the gm of one department. Maybe the £3.00 is now £5.00, but either way, it’s still a serious profit earner.

As children we would be taken to the Ritz or Fortnum & Mason for afternoon tea which are the long standing traditional tea places, especially for English families 'up' from the country or on half term from boarding school. What passes for afternoon tea in the big hotels today is lovely but a far cry from the traditional afternoon tea which would be followed by dinner later in the day. I defy anyone to eat that sort of teas followed by a three course dinner! The current afternoon tea menus are primarily aimed at tourists and a great money spinner between lunch and dinner.

My mom & I did Afternoon Tea at the Ritz because we figured it was the step under having at it at the palace 😂 I could not believe the level of fancy -- I'm someone who really enjoys a luxury experience and that was to a level I was almost uncomfortable with. There was always like 4 servers around and as soon as one thing was gone from the platter, they refilled it. It was very intense but of course an unforgettable experience. I also did one at Hotel Cafe Royal in the Oscar Wilde Room and it was absolutely perfect

I had my best London Afternoon Tea with the family of my B&B facility 20 years ago. The mother talked about her nervous breakdown the night before when the daughter came back drunk from a X-Mas party. We also had some kind of punch with "a little drip of Whisky" while the "drip" wasn't that little in fact 😉. I loved the scones and egg and mayo sandwiches a lot.

My first husband & I lived in London on & off for several years. WE lived in his Father's house in London.Anyway - his Dad did like tea in the afternoon so I became very good at baking scones. But in our life it was butter and cinnamon sugar as that was how his father had after school tea growing up. A few times I did have afternoon tea out with friends at Harrods and it was so much food we never ate any dinner! The scones were wonderful and large, the cakes were delicious. It was all just wonderful. Most of those we met having tea at Harrods were tourists - no Londoners.

Portions were small but lots of variety and the surroundings pretty. I like the fresh open air feeling in the Orangery and all the natural light.. We combined the tea with a walk around the grounds and tour of the Palace. It was a lovely treat.

One's gotta love it that Selfridge's was founded by an American. I may be a Texan, but attended University at Oxford - and am a total anglophile. Through the Churchill Spencer line, William and Harry are my 9th cousins twice-removed. That being said, I have found some really nice pub teas for around £14.00. Unless it were an adventure: seeking atmosphere and close attention at table, I would never pay more than £25 for tea.

This brought back found memories. My father was from England, sometimes we had afternoon tea, but we always ate our evening meal at 8:00 PM. It was a lot more casual at home than it was when visiting his side of family abroad. After watching this, I am tempted to start the afternoon tea ritual again. $217.00, pocket change! Sheesh! However, if cost were not an issue, I would love to be at the Four Seasons. The Idea of eating while smelling perfume . . . I can see and hear my father saying, "Blasphemy!" while fluttering his lashes, furrowing his brow and shaking his head with incredulous distaste. He was a wonderful man. Thank you for the memory. "No, it's baby spinach!" Adorable kids!

You know what I'd love to see a video of? Charming, chic and affordable accommodation in Nantucket! It's on my bucket list, along with Martha's Vineyard and P-Town but HOLY SMOKES-- the prices! Everything is expensive, there just doesn't seem to be anything reasonable in price. I'm very well travelled and always hunt down beautiful, gorgeous hotels and airbnb's for prices that are 'do-able', but Nantucket's average ballpark is just not justifiable for me. All the places priced as I would hope are either far out of the main centre or incredibly ugly and shabby. I search for videos on this and they're hard to find. I wish someone could explain why that particular area is priced so impossibly high, certainly when you see what little you get for your money. Hope you'll get to return to England and discover new places to enjoy soon. :)

This was a champagne afternoon tea, and I remember it cost me 45 pounds per person at the time. I admit that it was a nice experience, and maybe forva super special occasion, it's a nice thing to do,but on the whole, I personally find it a bit overrated.

That was fun. Most of my adult birthday parties were High Tea parties.

For me, a cream tea would be a nice treat, but, as London prices are a rip-off (I know, that's only my opinion), I wouldn't even dream of spending nearly £40 on a cream tea (let alone £400+ for an afternoon tea!) for two adults and two children. I would be too busy leaving the building, whilst echoing my Yorkshire's friend's frequent comment of, "How much?! You're joking me, love!" 😉

This is such a helpful subject. I'm hoping to make something like this memorial during a mother-son trip this year. I think she would enjoy Dolly's more, but Four Seasons is outstanding.

You are a good son! I would love the Four Seasons as well but with our budget it would probably be Selfridges. 🤑

Great video, great family, I think I’d prefer the cheaper cream tea, less fussy……get over to Dublin, we have afternoon tea on a vintage bus that travels around the city, it’s a hoot……best wishes from Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪

I really enjoyed afternoon tea in the Thames Foyer at the Savoy(pre-COVID). The setting is magical and the service top-notch. I also treated myself with a glass of champagne since I was celebrating my 50th bday on the trip. Very pricey(£95), but worth it!😍

Not worth it for tea and biscuits with butter & jam, a few cookies, and a couple of tiny sandwiches.

I'm glad you enjoyed your afternoon tea! I really don't like this new thing of Prosecco with afternoon tea, I can't imagine the taste of it enhancing the sandwiches and cakes. The rule about how to hold your cup is very over the top and unnecessary, you were perfectly fine as you were. I can highly recommend afternoon tea at the Savoy, and The Ritz is nice too. There is always a big debate here (in the UK) about whether you should put your cream on first, or your jam, but it's totally down to personal preference really. Normally it should be sandwiches first, then scones, then cakes.

£15 vs  £55 afternoon tea, which is better?
