When I had afternoon tea in London, I was actually blown away by how good the sandwiches were. It was my first time trying coronation chicken, for one thing. I am an afternoon tea fan for life!
@@lolsaXx definitely pricey, but I just saved for the entire trip. I just put aside a little bit of money for as long as it takes to save for things I wouldn’t normally be able to afford.
Thats afternoon tea which is served on a low table, from 3-5 pm mostly for the privileged class. High Tea is the middle/working class tea served later after their work hours consisting of meat pies and heavier dishes and lighter tea on a higher table.
I've been English for all of my 41 years and I've never ever had afternoon tea nor has anyone I know. I think it went out with Edwardian/ George V times and is only still done by upper middle and upper classes. Maybe for some people as a birthday/treat but extremely encouraged and overpriced for tourists who think it's an English tradition that everyone does!
@@scholasticbookfair. In America? I have relatives there. My nana went there to visit and was chatting to a stranger who asked if she knew the Queen. My nana has a broad Lancashire accent too. Put it this way- no one in the UK would mistake her as upper class!
@@catsy-Demeter, I love a northern English accent! I used to work as quality assurance in a call center, and one of our reps was from England, but after listening to her calls, I just knew she had to be from northern England, so I messaged her to ask. She was from York. I told her I guessed correctly because I used to watch "Open All Hours" many years ago, so I recognized the accent.
I believe most Americans know that afternoon tea is more of a special occasion treat than an everyday occurrence, although that's more likely due to the fact that since it's a special occasion treat for us, we just assume it's the same for the English. But I just learned that when having scones in Cornwall, the jam goes on first, **then** the cream. Lol
@@kareninalabama it's just not a thing where I live and I only drink tea when I run out of coffee lol. IMO it's something posh people did in the olden days. I think it's more a southern thing for tourists now.
Truth be told im more of a countryside afternoon tea kinda guy, less pomp more rustic more relaxed atmosphere and you get local varieties sometimes like local jams or honeys sometimes a chutney!
As a dancer who used to perform for Make A Wish at the Dorchestor, please research before you go here. The owner of the dorchestor is heavily homophobic, racist and transphobic. The dance company I used to be a part of would perform there every year. It has only come to light about the owner recently, this has caused Make A Wish to stop performing at the Dorchestor. So just a heads up, research before you go here since the current ownership are kinda scumbags :)

Yes! 🙌
But for £95?? I'm just too poor...

Oh wow! The famous English afternoon tea. Everything looks so fancy and delicious. Would love to get a chance to experience the full package👍👍👍👍👍
👏🏻👏🏻not just high tea, it’s a kind of traditional culture! wonderful 🥰

Actually it's very well known to not be common among lower classed citizens.

Royalty Tea for the Three Musketeers 🤴🤴🤴🤴☕️☕️☕️
I would! It looks amazing but it’s also about the experience.
Thank you for sharing. The Dorchester Hotel there is so nice. Yes, the Afternoon Tea Service is really nice and worth it.
WOW! How cool!! I’m glad you guys have different eating adventures!! Looks delicious!! Enjoy!!!😜👍🏻
I think the experience is well worth the money everything looks delicious! 😊
The Ritz, Claridges, The Dorchester, The Savoy. I personally think the first two are the best, but it’s hard to go wrong😉
If any one wants to taste earl grey ice cream, Van Leeuwen sells it and it’s very good
Wow, now that is a special tea. It looks so nice. Its good to see you spoiling yourselves.
Looking forward to watching your new videos ! I love them so much , I have watched all 79 videos for only 5 days❤❤❤❤
I want to go with you next time you go! Looks delicious!
You guys have the best hair!
Looks wonderful !
So many positive comments! Did anyone hear the cost? Those better be damn good sandwiched @ £95 a person!
I was searching for anyone commenting on that 😂 those sandwiches are too small to me for that price
I would love that .🤗💛🙏
Yes, I would. I’ve never enjoyed real tea time and I’m sure I would love it! ❤
No luckily we live in Sri Lanka and have awesome tea times in 5 star hotels!

Lovely to see a bunch of dudes at afternoon tea. My bf always feels out of place but he hella loves afternoon tea
Ive always wanted to do this
Good thing you’re slim! That was a lot of things to eat
I would try it.
That’s expensive, but sounds like the experience and food is worth it! It looks wonderful!
Yum
It’s expensive, but it sounds and looks good. I’d probably do it just to enjoy the experience.
Exactly! Worth it to try once for the experience
Certified Bridgeton moment
Looks good.
Yummm
I would say that more of a back and forth than an “up and down”
英國下午茶，好享受哦😁
Honestly if in London I only have afternoon tea at claridges
wow~
Wonderful
Мммммм, приятного аппетита....👍...
Yes please 🙏
I would love to go!!! ❤ but next day no carb diet plz 😂
Where is the catering from ?
Wow did they order one cake stand each! Joy!
Yes, because I'd only do it once.
Yup
Yes
Crazy Rich Asians
English food isn’t famous for being great but afternoon tea might be an exception (with fish and chips)😅
It would be nice for the experience. Everything looked wonderful except for the scones. I hope they tasted better than they looked.
No elbows on the table.
Bring food and drink up to your mouth, don't bend down so your face is inches from your cup or plate.
👍👍👍👍👍
Wow

Who's home were the sandwiches made at?
for 95 pounds, as something to try once for fun, it doesn’t seem too expensive tbh. it’s about the experience
£95?
They need to include a woman under the table to justify those prices!
This is living
わ～～🎶美味しそう👍イギリスでは本当にAfternoon Teaするのね☕お菓子にサンドイッチに、夕飯いらんわーってなりそうだね😂
There's nothing like the English afternoon tea and ESPECIALLY at the Dorchester? 95 quid a person is worth it for sure for the experience.
For more than $100, I'd b-line it to Scott's, Goldees, Blacks, or Franklin. Since we're talking about culture.🤣
🥰😋
Sure I would try it. You're only going on this ride they call life once...
I prefer desi tea party. Much better keto options!
I don't like cow milk I like macadamia nut cream, but yes I would like to try it.
That's expensive but definitely tasty.
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍🥰🥰
Nah, I'd go to The Ritz in London for tea instead.
Dass was die beste
Süßigkeit am
Tisch war 😅🤌
Dass wart ihr gewesen 🎉
¿Por qué nos antojan así? 🤤😪
Ridiculous pricing.
Look okay
The answer is NO.
Scones¿??????????
Oh faaak yeah 🎉🎉🎉
£95 for carbs😱
Those scones were tiny. I’d be hungry afterwards. Overpriced like most of central London.
For $120 I'd try it.
也不要错过唐人街上的小笼皇啊🤤🤤🤤
No thanks for 95p, I can eat other delicious food for less several times more
Fair enough!
Sure if you pay for it. 😊😂🤣
Wonder how good they do for vegetarians?
95 quid dauym
Gentlemen 的下午茶，太丰盛了！可惜的是，太丰盛了，不能每样都尝尝，还是得有取舍。仔细一看，发现小点心只有四种啊，还好，我还以为都是不重样的呢。种类太多了品尝不过来，也是一种遗憾，四种选择刚刚好。
That tea with milk doesn't look appealing...probably without milk would have been better
RIP OFF Tory Britain 😂😂😂😂😂
I would try it yes, but not for 95 pounds. I work for my money.
Waste of money lol😂😂
Now 110 £ ..😢
What’s 95 pound a person ?
