About Afternoon Tea at Rosewood London
The Spotlight on Afternoon Tea at Rosewood London

Elegant Afternoon Tea Steps from the Stage

Set within the stunning surrounds of the Rosewood London hotel, Afternoon Tea at Rosewood London offers a refined yet welcoming experience in the heart of Holborn. With its blend of classic British charm and modern luxury, this award-winning tearoom is just minutes from central London’s major music and theatre venues. Guests can expect beautifully presented finger sandwiches, warm scones, and themed pastries that change throughout the year, all served in the hotel's grand Mirror Room.

Why Concert-goers love it

If you're heading to an evening performance, this spot is ideal for a relaxing, early pre-show bite. Afternoon Tea service typically wraps by early evening, which makes it a smart choice for concert-goers looking to indulge before curtain call. The setting is elegant but not stuffy, and you'll appreciate the calm atmosphere after a busy day of sightseeing or before a lively show.

Who this Restaurant is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a stylish pre-concert catch-up
  • Solo travelers wanting a peaceful and memorable London food experience
  • Couples planning a romantic afternoon before a night out
  • Fans who want to treat themselves before their favorite artist takes the stage
  • Budget-conscious music fans looking for a splurge-worthy but fixed-price option

What People Say

Guests rave about the creative, seasonally themed menus—from fashion-inspired patisserie to literary classics. Service is described as polished and attentive without being overbearing. Many reviewers highlight the beautiful setting and the sense of occasion the tea service brings. It’s frequently lauded as one of the best afternoon tea experiences in London.

Areas for Improvement

While the experience is top-notch, it can be pricey for those on a tighter budget. Booking ahead is a must, especially on weekends, and the refined atmosphere may not suit those looking for a more casual or quick bite. Also, it’s worth noting that service ends before dinner hours—so it’s not your spot for post-show dining.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers seeking a luxurious, serene start to an unforgettable evening, Afternoon Tea at Rosewood London makes a perfectly indulgent pre-show stop.
