HOME OF THE ORIGINAL AFTERNOON TEA
The Langham holds a unique place in the history of Afternoon Tea. Opened in 1865, it was the first place to move this great Victorian invention from the drawing rooms of the aristocracy and into a refined yet accessible experience, enjoyed in the grand setting of a luxurious hotel.
Since then, The Langham’s Afternoon Tea has evolved into an internationally celebrated event, admired for its elegant presentation, culinary creativity, and timeless charm. While honouring the traditional elements – fluffy scones, delicate finger sandwiches, and exquisitely crafted patisserie – The Langham also embraces innovation. Guests can expect classics with a modern twist, inspired by global flavours and interpreted by world-renowned chefs.
From London to international Langham destinations, this signature style offers more than a meal – it is a cultural moment steeped in sophistication and artistry. Each Afternoon Tea menu is thoughtfully curated, often reflecting local influences while upholding the refined standards established over a century ago.
The Langham Afternoon Tea Book invites you to explore this enduring tradition and savour a taste of history, elegance, and culinary excellence, wherever you may be in the world.
