THE LANGHAM AFTERNOON TEA

The Langham, London, is widely recognized as the birthplace of English afternoon tea, a tradition that has continued unbroken since 1865.

For over 160 years, discerning gourmands have experienced afternoon tea at The Langham, served on a three-tier silver stand—featuring classic scones, delicate sandwiches, and exquisite patisserie, all accompanied by fine Darjeeling or Earl Grey tea. This very ritual and experience became the benchmark by which the "classic English afternoon tea" would be defined for generations to come.
