Birthdays are nature’s way of reminding us to eat more cake, so afternoon tea was in order to celebrate two of my friends.
We picked the Park Tower's Knightsbridge Lounge, as we wanted to discover the seemingly beautiful Knightsbridge Lounge and its flowering magnolia trees-adorned walls. And truly beautiful it was.
But then, it was only fittig for the wonderful afternoon tea we were served. Centred around autumnal flavours, especially nutty one, everything was delicious, especially the amuse-bouche (Wild mushroom quiche) and the selection of sweets.
A lovely place to celebrate a special event or just take time off and relaaaaaax!
What a stunning Afternoon Tea and venue! The Knightsbridge Lounge, in the luxurious The Park Tower Knightsbridge, is a spectacular circular room, with hand-stitched wall paper of cascading florals and an amazing tear-drop chandelier that's over 18ft!
Their Afternoon Tea is just delicious, it's created in partnership with Rachel Vosper, a world-renowned chandler, and is named The Collection of Scents - and for good reason! Their pastries have been created to match individual candles, each one with a delicious smell, such as rose, or orange blossom, that matches the flavour of the delicate pastries. As you bite into the pastry, you're encouraged to enjoy the aroma of the matching candle, making it a multi-sensory experience.
Honestly, the pastries were heavenly - each one was so light and well thought out, and the taste was mouth-watering.
Their scones are hands-down the best scones I've ever tasted, they were so light and fluffy, and served warm it made adding the cream and jam a delicious experience.
Their sandwiches are also delightful - each one in a unique bread or bun, mixing up the traditional finger sandwiches with brioche buns and flavoured breads, all handmade in-house.
I really recommend visiting this Afternoon Tea, the setting is stunning, the service is fabulous and the tea is unforgettable.
Best afternoon tea ever! 💖Lovely setting, fantastic service and impressive catering. One of the party has a nut allergy-not a problem-maximum effort put in to providing superb alternatives where necessary! The atmosphere was luxurious and relaxed-Kat(e)tina our waitress was wonderful-couldn't fault the service and we felt no pressure to hurry (unlike in the Ritz). Absolutely perfect and will definitely be back!
