What a lovely way to spend the day!

Henry James once said, "There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea.” and we tend to agree.

Join us at The Royal Tea Room for afternoon tea and choose from our 4 or 5-course prix fixe menu offerings, specially curated with nods to English tea traditions.

Our tea room is styled and designed with tradition, comfort and relaxation in mind. Our dinnerware has been hand selected and chosen as a way to spark conversation, to delight, and to give life to beautiful wares that deserve to be admired and enjoyed. This means that very few of our tea cups, saucers, or other tea and drink accessories match.

We have worked hard to make your time at the tea room a truly lovely and memorable experience. We hope you love it here as much as we do!
