Afternoon Tea at The Berkeley

Afternoon tea at The Berkeley is a stylish reimagining of a beloved tradition, blending bold flavours with playful creativity. Expect unexpected twists, beautifully crafted treats, and a dash of cocktail-hour glamour — perfect for celebrations or a chic pause after a day in the city.

Time for Goûtea

A showcase of pâtisserie elegance, Goûtea fuses the French tradition of sweet snacking with the best of British afternoon tea. This season’s menu is winter in a nutshell, as savoury navettes are the prelude to a sweet selection of the chef’s in-miniature masterpieces. The ‘Hazelnut Hyde Park’ pays a trompe-l'œil tribute to our Royal Park neighbour, while the luxurious ‘Pistachio’ layers crunchy praline, silky ganache, and vibrant pistachio gel.

Mar-tea-ni Is Served

Following a long history of serving afternoon tea with a twist, The Berkeley debuts a stylish new service. Take a seat in the Blue Bar for Mar-Tea-Ni, as this time-honoured tradition meets cocktail-hour chic. Here, your home-baked scones are topped with caviar, patisserie perfection comes in the form of pistachio ice cream lollypops, and three bespoke Martinis are mixology masterpieces in miniature. Our cocktail afternoon tea is served daily from 5-7.30pm, wrap up days spent shopping Belgravia’s boutiques, or plan the perfect prelude to festive celebrations.
