Palm Court

Palm Court, The Langham, London's historic and sparkling centrepiece, is famed as the birthplace of the afternoon tea tradition, a ritual that continues each afternoon. The Langham, London has been delighting guests with gracious hospitality since it opened in 1865. Exuding a timeless elegance, this London hotel offers impeccably luxurious surroundings on Regent Street, one of the city's premier locations close to many local attractions and popular shopping destinations.

Guests will start with a brief history of afternoon tea and the hotel's role in it, accompanied by a glass of Taittinger Champagne. This will be followed by finger sandwiches and savouries, including Roast chicken, Cucumber, Gentleman’s Relish, and Devilled quail’s egg. Next, enjoy delicate cakes and pastries like Rose-infused baba and Orange blossom cream with almond madeleine. The experience continues with signature warm scones, Cornish clotted cream, and seasonal preserves, concluding with a seasonal trifle.

Served on bespoke William Edwards chinaware, the tea service features 19th-century-inspired floral motifs. In partnership with JING Tea, a curated selection of teas, including The Langham’s Breakfast blend and Jasmine Silver Needle, complements the menu. A new cocktail list, featuring flavours like Earl Grey and Matcha, adds to the experience. A live pianist enhances the ambiance in Palm Court.

Palm Court also welcomes young diners for afternoon tea. The children's menu includes cucumber and cream cheese sandwiches, roast ham, bite-size scones, and playful cakes inspired by Victorian toys like Spinning Tops and Dice, all served on miniature cake stands and tea ware.
