    Saw this on Food Insider and decided to try their Afternoon Tea. Our table got the classic and the gentleman's tea. Both varieties were quite tasty and our server kept bringing us extra sandwiches! For the tea, I ordered the White Pear & Ginger. It was subtle, but good. Tip: add 1-2 small spoonfuls of sugar for a more delicious tea Overall it was a great experience and I will definitely come back here the next time I'm in London!

    If you want a filling afternoon tea with spectacular views for a good price, look no further than Swan London! We came just in time for their holiday themed tea packages. I had the Classic tea and my partner had the Gentleman’s tea. Both had a fabulous mix of sweet and savory. My favorites were the eggnog and nutmeg cheesecake on a speculoos biscuit, and the scones with all the fixings. The tea was also lovely - I had the Earl Grey and my partner had the Pear and Ginger. Can’t recommend Swan London enough if you’re looking for fun, British tradition to partake in. You definitely won’t leave hungry or thirsty!

    We have been meaning to try this for ages and today we were finally able to treat ourselves to an early festive treat by having the Hansel & Gretel afternoon tea. It was simply perfect! The savouries, sweet treats and wonderful scones with clotted cream and jam went done amazingly well with the lovely white mulled wine tea and the obligatory glass of fizz! Scarlett, our server was fabulous, very friendly and knowledgable of everything on the plate. We couldn’t eat it all, so got a few sweet bits to take home for the kids. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place! The atmosphere was friendly, the food was delectable and the service was 5 Star! Thank you for a wonderful afternoon!
