Marylebone - Afternoon Tea

 

2. Afternoon Tea
While The Kensington’s Tale as Old as Time afternoon tea is booked up until November, our two other hotels The Marylebone and The Bloomsbury both have wonderful afternoon tea offerings. At The Bloomsbury opt for the the Bloomsbury Set menu, inspired by original recipes from the Twenties and Thirties. Over at The Marylebone’s 108 Pantry settle into a huge armchair and gradually sink into it as you choose between Classic, Indulgent or Gluten-Free tea. And we have teamed up with the jeweller Lola Rose to offer a 10% discount on online purchases for guests dining on Saturday 25th or Sunday 26th March.

5. Cooking classes
Not that we would ever want to insult your mum's cooking, but if you fancy something foodie this Mother's Day then The Marylebone is just next door to l’atelier de chefs, one of London’s most revered cookery schools, which hosts sessions on everything from sushi to pastry making. On Saturday 25th it is holding a British Cooking Class.

Its boutiques are full of London’s most fashionable pieces and to make the day even more of a VIP experience use The Marylebone’s Shopping Guide, which is packed full of discounts and special treats for its guests.
