Afternoon Tea at the Mitre pairs riverside elegance with indulgence, served in the light-filled 1665 Brasserie overlooking the Thames. Expect refined service and a line-up of warm savouries, sultana and lemon scones, and handcrafted sweets — all enjoyed in a setting that feels both historic and effortlessly luxurious.

Set on the water’s edge and moments from Hampton Court Palace, the Mitre Hotel offers a characterful blend of heritage and contemporary comfort. The atmosphere is relaxed but polished, creating a setting that feels special without ever slipping into formality. 

Afternoon Tea unfolds in the 1665 Brasserie, a bright riverside dining room with generous natural light and calm, stylish surroundings. The space is designed for unhurried visits, offering an inviting backdrop for conversation, celebration, or simply enjoying a quieter rhythm to the day. 

The menu serves an array of exquisite flavours, with warming savouries such as old spot sausage roll with burnt apple brown sauce, followed by sultana and lemon scones with clotted cream. A selection of handcrafted desserts, ranging from wild berry choux bakes to caramelised apple tart, brings a considered finish. Guests may enhance the experience with premium English sparkling wines, Champagne or a choice of signature cocktails.

Those wishing to make a day of it can book our £50 Regency Afternoon Tea, which includes a ticket collected at reception prior to their Afternoon Tea experience for entry to Hampton Court Palace.
