Afternoon Tea along the River Thames

A British Tradition - Afternoon Tea

What could be more enjoyable than treating yourself to a classic afternoon tea with all the trimmings… served on a tiered cake stand with a sumptuous choice of finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones with clotted cream and jam, homemade cakes and a variety of teas, or coffee if you prefer? Add an extra treat, a glass of Prosecco or champagne. And for a relaxing afternoon take Afternoon Tea at one of the riverside hotels. Enjoy this great British tradition in a restaurant overlooking the river, or on a sunny day sit on the terrace or in the garden watching the boats go by.

Five of the best:

The Runnymede on Thames, Egham offers a few hours of sheer indulgence overlooking the river with afternoon tea served in the comfort of The Lounge.
MacDonald Compleat Angler, Marlow where you can relax in sun drenched gardens overlooking the river with an exquisite afternoon tea.
The Oakley Court, Windsor is a chance to indulge you with the finer things in life. Take tea like the Queen amidst a beautiful country house with magnificent gardens on the banks of the River Thames.
Danesfield House, Marlow can be enjoyed with the River Thames and the Chilterns as a backdrop. Afternoon Tea is served in The Restaurant daily and includes The Complete Danesfield Afternoon Tea, served with a Glass of Laurent Perrier Champagne, Bucks Fizz or Champagne Cocktail.
Cliveden, Taplow is thrilled to reintroduce to Cliveden the fabulous Astor Tea Service, commissioned especially for Lady Astor; enjoy afternoon tea served on the new service in the Great Hall.

Afternoon Tea with a difference!

Why not take an Afternoon Tea and sightseeing cruise along the river from various points: London, Windsor or Henley on Thames? If you really want to spoil yourself, book a Vintage day out with Afternoon Tea in the glamour of a genuine luxury vintage chauffeur driven car.
