TEA GUILD MEMBER
The Wolseley
Built in 1921, this stately Grade II listed building was comissioned by Wolseley Cars as their London showroom - hence the name.
Buzzy and ever popular with tea drinking media people and "fashionistas", tea is served in a variety of elegant rooms: the main dining room, the salon, reception or the bar. Admire the striking decor while you indulge in a cream tea with fruit scones and a choice of teas, or a full afternoon tea with assorted finger sandwiches and a selection of pastries.
Don't forget to glance through the dessert and patisserie menus too - there are inviting delights on offer. A refreshing alternative to champagne is fresh lemonade, available by the glass or pitcher.
- Awarded The Tea Guild's Award of Excellence 2007, 2009 & 2010
