Cream Tea

Think Britain, think cream tea. The afternoon tea’s older (but smaller) sibling, cream teas have been around for centuries and enjoyed for just as long, and if you want to join in the tradition then we’ve got plenty of places for you to take part. Whether you want a perfect British pairing of cream tea with a visit to one of many National Trust locations, or a trip to the iconic Harrods department store, you’ll find somewhere great to partake from the list below.

As most of these cream teas are for two, you can share in the experience with a friend or loved one and make the most of your tea, scones, clotted cream and jam. If you’re looking for a tea-time trip that includes finger sandwiches and cakes too, then it’ll be afternoon tea that you’re after.
