A Brief History of Afternoon Tea

Afternoon tea began in England in the early 19th century, credited to Anna, the Duchess of Bedford. Dinner was often served late in the evening, leaving a long gap between meals. To curb her hunger, the Duchess requested a light meal of tea, bread, butter, and cakes in the afternoon. This practice quickly became a fashionable social event, with friends invited to join and the spread growing to include scones, finger sandwiches, and pastries.

By the Victorian era, afternoon tea had evolved into an elegant ritual, enjoyed in drawing rooms and accompanied by fine china, linens, and ornate silverware. Today, we honor this tradition in our Victorian restaurant, where you can step back in time and savor afternoon tea in a setting inspired by its historical roots and the timeless charm of Victorian hospitality.
