Wimbledon-inspired Afternoon Tea at The Dorchester
As tennis takes centre stage in the coming weeks, The Dorchester will serve a Wimbledon-inspired Afternoon Tea on The Promenade with a selection of tennis-inspired pastries including the citrus court, raspberry drop and coconut smash.
Alternatively guests can make the most of the English sunshine with a luxury Picnic Hamper filled with indulgent goodies and presented in a beautiful wicker hamper that is theirs to keep.
As well as the tennis-inspired pastries, the Wimbledon Afternoon Tea includes a glass of champagne, traditional strawberries & cream, delicious finger sandwiches and homemade scones. Taking place throughout Wimbledon from 21 June to 4 July 2010 the tea is priced at £48 per person. (Prices are inclusive of VAT and exclusive of a service charge of 12.5%).
