The tradition of Afternoon Tea is attributed to Anna, the 7th Duchess of Bedford, who is said to have complained of “having that sinking feeling” during the late afternoon. The solution was a pot, a tea, and a light snack, taken privately at first, then inviting friends to join her, until all fashionable society was sipping tea and nibbling sandwiches in the middle of the afternoon.
This tradition has flourished and carried on to present day, where now there is a wealth of choice. AfternoonTea.co.uk is the UK’s favourite Afternoon Tea destination with over 800 venues, where you can find the perfect experience whether it’s 5-star luxury, a quaint tearoom or themed menu, there’s something for everyone.
