There has been an upsurge in the popularity of afternoon tea across the country in recent years, especially in the capital. London being noted for its abundance of luxury hotels, including the Ritz and Claridges, is full of unforgettable afternoon tea options – including many quirky alternatives to the traditional English variety.

Some, such as Aqua at the Shard and the newly opened Ting at the Shard, serve up equally unforgettable views of the city. While cat lovers can partake of tea and sandwiches with some furry friends at the recently launched Lady Dinah’s Cat Emporium by Brick Lane. Perhaps one of the most unusual menus is served up at arty eatery Sketch, where the mismatched cutlery and artist-designed gallery/dining rooms make for a unique afternoon out.
