The Londoner Hotel has launched a new afternoon tea at The Stage, the Champagne bar situated in the lobby of the hotel.
Available 12-4pm every Saturday and Sunday – and the perfect post-shopping, pre-theatreland pitstop – Afternoon Tea at The Stage comprises all the best of British High Tea favourites, including a selection of sandwiches, freshly baked artisanal cakes, and fluffy scones.
Square-cut sandwiches include smoked salmon and Devon crab with yuzu kosho crème fraîche on granary bread and lemon-roasted Norfolk chicken with truffle mayonnaise on basil-and-spinach-infused bread. Both plain and sultana scones, baked in The Stage’s kitchen that morning, are served with indulgent Cornish clotted cream, homemade strawberry preserve and light bergamot curd. Beautifully crafted patisseries created by Executive Pastry Chef Dale De Simone complete the menu, including the ornate English Rose, a patisserie of blackcurrant and pear with shortbread and almond detailing, paying a whimsical tribute to the national flower of England.
Served alongside The Stage’s Champagne Afternoon Tea will be a considered selection of Champagnes, as well as fresh loose leaf teas from The East India Company, who have expertly curated a special tea list collaboratively with The Londoner. A choice of Champagne can be made from a selection including R de Ruinart Brut NV, pommery Apanage Rose Brut N and finally, Dom Perignon Brut Vintage.
The Stage’s Afternoon Tea offers four different packages:
Traditional Afternoon Tea: £65pp
Champagne Tea, served with a glass of R de Ruinart Brut NV, starts at £80pp
Rosé Champagne Afternoon Tea, served with a glass of Pommery Apanage Rosé Brut N: £90pp
