Afternoon Tea in Brighton

Brighton Afternoon Tea

Afternoon Tea in Brighton is a must for foodies! You’ll get to tuck into a range of sweet and savoury delicacies, from feather-light finger sandwiches and dainty desserts to scones with clotted cream and jam. Not forgetting those freshly-brewed beverages; your choice of tea or coffee or even a glass a prosecco to toast your special occasion with!

Afternoon Tea is the perfect activity if you’re after a more laid-back affair in this bustling city, where you can kick back and relax with your favourite people. Afternoon Tea began with the Duchess of Bedford’s desire to squeeze an extra meal in after getting peckish between lunch and dinner. A woman after our own heart! A bit of tea, cake and sarnies helped keep the hunger pangs at bay and soon became a popular and established social occasional between women. A quintessentially British traditional was born and it’s never stopped growing in popularity. So, make like the Duchess and get your Afternoon Tea on dahling!
