Lord’s Cricket Ground has released new dates for its popular afternoon tea packages to celebrate next month’s Afternoon Tea Week.
Afternoon Tea Week takes place on 14 August and in response to high demand for 2017, the new dates will allow more people to enjoy this offering.
There is no better place for a traditional British afternoon tea with all the trimmings than in the iconic Long Room at Lord’s. Here, you can enjoy a sumptuous spread prepared by the in-house catering team whilst enjoying the iconic view across the famous outfield.
Afternoon tea at Lord’s ranks among the best in London where guests can enjoy a traditional cream tea, including freshly baked scones with homemade jam and Cornish clotted cream, along with finger sandwiches containing an array of mouth-watering fillings. Additionally, you can tuck in to some delicious dainties freshly prepared each day by the resident pâtissier at Lord’s.
Selected dates for afternoon tea at Lord’s for the coming months are now available from 13 August through to 10 December, making a perfect solution for a classic day out right up until the festive period.
The Lord’s Pastry Chef Laura Crouch has revealed that the secret to the perfect afternoon tea is simple; fresh scones and just the right amount of filling in the cakes so they can all be finished.
Nick Kenton, MCC Head of Sales, Meetings & Events and Hospitality, commented, “Afternoon tea at Lord’s is always a unique and memorable occasion. It’s one of those typically British experiences that is not to be missed. With the views of the outfield from the Long Room, it’s a very popular choice for afternoon tea which is why we have added new dates for 2017.”
