When The Langham opened in London in 1865, it became the first hotel in the world to serve afternoon tea. Nearly 160 years later, the original Grand Hotel has launched a new afternoon tea that celebrates this unique culinary history: the tradition of taking tea in the Victorian era and The Langham as the birthplace of afternoon tea as we know it today. 

The menu takes you back in time and highlights the hotel's legacy with a modern twist, offering Victorian-inspired cakes, pastries, and sandwiches created by Executive Pastry Chef Andrew Gravett and culinary icon Michel Roux.
