Sample menus

When creating our Afternoon Tea menu, we took our inspiration from the Royal family and Commonwealth. We also incorporated seasonal ingredients such as pears and peaches, inspired by the Royal Orchard and our sustainability goals. Running from 1st May - 1st August, our Royal Afternoon Tea menu will also feature a delightful coronation twist in honour of the official coronation of HM King Charles III.

Enjoy our freshly baked scones, pastries and finger sandwiches alongside Ceylon Golden Tips, in partnership with specialist tea merchants PMD Tea.

With white-glove service, this delicate tea is weighed with precision at The Rubens using golden scales; each tip is placed into the silver teapot individually with golden tweezers. The tea, which is showcased in a mahogany box lined with velvet, is infused with still mineral water to produce an extraordinary liquor and a smooth, light and mellow texture, with hints of fruity notes.

Offer: Purchase our Golden Tips voucher for £500 for two people, which includes a bottle of Lanson Champagne (750ml) that will be sabred at your table.

With the option to have our sumptuous Afternoon Tea either delivered or collected, you can now enjoy our delectable selection of coronation-themed pastries, cakes, and mini finger sandwiches from the comfort of your own home (or any other location suited to your desire). Simply visit the link below, select your Afternoon Tea, and immerse yourself in the most decadent of treats.
