What's the best afternoon tea in London? This is a question I get a lot, so I decided to compare three of the top afternoon teas in London so you can figure out which tea experience is best for your next visit. In this video, come with me to the Rosewood hotel, Fortnum & Mason, and Ting at the Shangri-La hotel in The Shard to see how they compare on price, location, food and service.

Afternoon tea at the Wolseley, in London, was relatively affordable , great portions, beautiful classic tea set up in a gorgeous building with so much character. It wasn't too posh, nor too casual. It was a full house that day. As a tourist, it was everything I hoped for for about 40 dollars per person. When we finished all three tiers of food and pastries , they offered to refill us on food or tea free of charge! We declined of course, as we were full , but considering how generous the servings were already, this really surprised us. 10/10 recommend!

My wife & I went to the tea at Fornum and Mason and for a traditional tea it was great! I wish we would have seen this before visiting London as I think all 3 would have been on our list. The Rosewood Hotel looked art fabulous and tea at Ting in the Shard would have been worth the 5 minute champagne wait just to take in that view. Thanks Jess, great video!

Thanks for the Fortnum & Mason recommendation. My girlfriend and I had tea there a few weeks ago. It was my first time visiting London; and it was the perfect first stop on our trip. It is a bit expensive, 70 dollars each. But the food, products and atmosphere there are just so refined. Thanks again!

I went to high tea at Fortnum & Mason back in 2003 on my first visit to London. It was a highlight of the trip for me. I drank coffee not tea, as I am not a tea drinker. Then I added a glass of champagne. The other highlight was seeing for the first time "Phantom of the Opera“ at Her Majesty’s Theatre.

I know !! I just happened to Google that place for afternoon tea services 3 days ago !!! Lol As I wanna have my tea looking at the tower bridge when I 'll be in London with mom in the very near future !!! The view of it from the hotel restaurant is stunning 😍 But ,I am afraid we can't afford it !! As we're definitely going to have our tea at Fortnum and Mason !!! I love love that place !!! And they now ( started few years ago ) have vegetarian & vegan tea as well & I am a vegetarian & mom is a pescatarian !! We're also planning to do another at the Ritz !! I've read & heard vegan ones at the both ones are better than regular afternoon tea ,so I might go for vegan ones there !! I used to be a vegan for a real long time !! I can't wait !!! Lol. I am thinking about having a cream tea at the Ivy's instead !! It's only £8.50 ,of course it's way more pricey compared to regular cream tea services ...! But ,it's right by the tower bridge !!! 🫖🍵☕🧁🍰👍👍💜🥁🐉🎵🎤🎶💞

I just love afternoon tea in London. I went to Brown's Hotel in Mayfair. Definitely very pricey but it was lovely. It was so filling it was the only food we ate all day. My friend is gluten free and she was extremely impressed with their gluten free options, even saying the gf scones were as good as she remembered her grandmothers traditional scones to have been.

I have been to many afternoon teas in my life !! Mostly here in S.California ( U.S. ) ,though !! Many at hotels . Some at a British tea place ( cream tea ) & a British pub( cream tea as well ,though ! ) & a cream tea in Cotswold & Portmeirion, Wales !!! It was so~good ( Wales )I might had a cake there,though,but the best tasting compared to English's scones ,or cake I had over there back then !!! And one afternoon tea ( vague memory still ...I have recently regained my decades long blocked memories for my PTS which I wasn't aware ) at Fortnum and Mason in '83 !! It could had been just sandwiches & scones ,no cakes as I believe it was early in morning I went there ! ? I do remember clearly of eating those delicious sandwiches & scones there !!! And do remember wishing if I could had more of those sandwiches !! Lol. And I had some afternoon teas in Tokyo ! I do believe that in London when you talk about ,or suggesting afternoon teas to people there ,you really can't omit Fortnum and Mason ones !!! For the tastes & the atmosphere over there !! As for the Four Seasons ...I believe you !! Although I had a fabulous afternoon tea at the hotel in Beverly Hills before ( decades ago !! WOW ! Time flies really !!! ) & lots of dinners & lunches there ,very sadly the quality/ tastes went down so~badly ,plunged here ,too !!! I was so ~ shocked !!! I believe it's due to the new ownership & management !! My favourite thing at the Four Season was their apple pie !! It comes in a baking ramekin ! ( There's another one like that at the Embassy Suites ! Theirs is the very best !!! Lol. ) I went there about 5 years ago for my birthday celebration ( I wanted that apple pie !! 🥧 ) ,but it was so --- bad !!! 👎 Tasteless & mashy ,too moistened !! And and the tea ...AWFUL TEA ...THE TEA POT SMELLED LIKE CHLORINE!!! 😱😖We complained about it ! We got no apology from them !! Maybe one " sorry about that " ? And it came back smelling like sewage !!! 😱😖👎👎 We were stunned !!! I couldn't drink it !! We decided not to go back there ever !! We haven't ever since then !!! So ,I believe you saying it was dissapointing !! If you said that two decades ago ,then I would had doubted your taste bud ,but now it's very believable !! I felt the decline of the Four Season a bit earlier than that incident !! So ,I kinda predicted it ! It's such a shame !! As they were one of the best around !! Even when I was a vegan for 17 years & back then ,they always prepared & served the best tasting vegan dishes ( amongth hotels here ,the Beverly Wilshire ,Ritz Carlton ,Hyatt , etc. ) for me whenever I went there !! I am kind of scared to go back there after that tea pot incident !! 🫖🍵☕🍰🧁💜🥁🐉🎵🎤🎶💞

I just discovered this channel and I just love the content already. The champagne challenge though is imo inadequate to mesure service. In F&M they brought the champagne flute already poured to the table while the Changri-la did it in a two stages fashion. One person settin up an empty champagne glass on the table then an other person ( probably a sommelier) coming next to introduce then pour the champagne. So while the latter took longer it was a better more refined and luxureous service.

Glad I did and it was cool to see the cost but wonder what it was without the champagne? It was nice too as a vegetarian to see what can be had and I think the Shard would be best just for the views alone !!!! Great job Jess with the editing and overall video !!!! May 2022 is my trip to London after cancelling twice due to covid so i hope it happens this time.....

The dress you wore was very elegant & feminine & pretty 😍 It looked so good on you !! Perfect outfit for the afternoon tea !!! I can't believe you did 3 tea & champagnes on the same day !!! Lol.😅 Was that Veuve Clicquot ,too !!? My fave ,all time fave !!! Lol. Though I really don't drink alcohol ,but I love champagnes !! Veuve & Piper Hyde Seek's pink champagne are my all time faves as well as Perrier Jouet fluer de champagne bell...,those 3 are my faves !!! Lol. And did you say that you're a vegetarian,too !!?? Me,too !!! LOLLOLLOL 👍👍So,which one was the best !?? I had my afternoon tea at Fortnum and Mason ,way way back !! In '83 !! Lol. It was so good 👍 I am planning to go back there for another when we'll be there in the very near future !!! I am wishing if you can do a vlog for more casual ,affordable afternoon tea on a budget without sacrificing the tastes / qualities !! Lol. Or a cream tea vlog !! I wanna know which place's scones are the very best in London !! That'll be awesome ,too !!! This video was so awesome ,thank you !!! 😍👍👍💜💜💜💜🥁🐉🎵🎤🎶🍾🥂🍰🧁🫖☕🍵💕💞

Three afternoon teas on the same day? The sun must circle the earth differently in London since the last time I was there. ;) I'm confused about the difference between high tea and afternoon tea. I've never done one myself. The closest I came was at the Empress Hotel in Victoria BC, but didn't do it. The lobby was crammed with tourists to the max. It didn't seem very British.
