Celebrate two English icons – Portobello Road and High Tea – at Portobello.
The pompous tradition of high tea began way back in the mid 1800s, when the Duchess of Bedford began pestering Jeeves for a tray of tea, bread and butter every afternoon. The Duchess’ indulgences soon became a regular occurrence, and afternoon tea was annointed ‘the shizzle' for upper-class women. Accompanying this tea sipping pastime were corset-busting pastries filled with clotted cream or preserves, delicate sandwiches, and the trusty old scone.
Now you can relive one of England's most civilised traditions in the heart of Hollywood Road (Soho) at Portobello (aptly named after London’s Portobello Road, home to the notable Portobello Road Market). Gather a group of friends, sink into comfy leather armchairs surrounded by British market trinkets, and indulge in traditional High Tea fare the old fashioned way. Served on stacked silver platters, the tea set includes scones with clotted cream, assorted mini sandwiches, sliced cakes and a choice of Taylor’s of Harrogate tea or coffee.
Portobello's daily High Tea is sourced from a selection of over 30 sandwiches, desserts and teas. For full details, get clicking>>
