Afternoon tea in London with kids

7 replies

Any fab places to go for afternoon tea with kids in London? DS1 will be almost 4, and DS2 will be 1 (but very used to dining in restaurants and behaving well) .

Not looking for something too fancy, just something that’s good & child friendly.

I was wondering about somewhere like Sketch perhaps , but looking for other suggestions too.

Thanks!

We had afternoon tea at patisserie Valerie so there are branches everywhere! Food was good value and hot chocolate was amazing.

Was going to say Sketch.

I’ve seen kids in Fortnum and Mason.

We loved the Charlie and the Chocolate factory one at One Aldwych.

Park Room at the Grosvenor House offers a special tea menu for kids—the Grover’s Children’s Tea. In the past there's been typical mini sandwiches, fruit salad, and fairy cakes. The children get a Grover stuffed toy to take home. The Park Room also offers Anna’s Afternoon Tea for adults.
The Kensington Palace Orangery is a lovely, light, bright venue with a large outdoor terrace and plenty of space inside too. Highchairs are available and everyone feels very special here with the excellent service. There is space between the tables so it's easy to tend to your kids.
If you're worried about your 4yo getting bored, then the Bateaux London Afternoon Tea cruise along the River Thames might be a good idea. It lasts under two hours and there's a discounted rate for children.

There's a Science themed one with dinosaur cookies you excavate out of 'soil' at the Ampersand hotel. You can combine with a trip to Natural History museum or Science museum or V&A?

Did this ‘Willy Wonker’ Charlie & the chocolate factory afternoon tea with the kids at the chesterfield in Mayfair. The kids loved it!
