Afternoon Tea

About

A quintessentially British tradition dating to the 1840s — finger sandwiches, warm scones with clotted cream and jam, and dainty pastries served on tiered stands with a pot of tea. Grand hotels like The Ritz and Claridge's in London are famous for it, though tearooms across the country do it beautifully too.
