Book for master pâtissier Eric Lanlards signature afternoon tea which is a far cry from traditional tea and scones. Expect the likes of edible Earl Grey perfumes, savoury gruyère cheese éclairs with brie, rocket and red onion marmalade, and exotic pop cones topped with orange blossom Persian candy floss. Eric’s unique twist on this classic British institution elevates the humble afternoon tea into something utterly decadent and indulgent. Served at 15.30, book a table for between one to six people from £15 per person.
