Best Afternoon Tea in London

At Brigit's Bakery, we've been serving our L'Afternoon Tea - an exquisite afternoon tea experience with a French twist - for over 12 years.

We feel honoured that our Afternoon Tea Bus Tours and our delightful bakery in Covent Garden have been recognised as one of the best afternoon teas in London. We sit in great 'high tea' company, alongside prestigious brands and tea rooms such as The Lanesborough, The Wolseley, 45 Park Lane, Claridge’s, One Aldwych and The Berkeley.

Best Afternoon Tea London Bus tour - Peppa Pig

Our Peppa Pig Bus Tour - a wonderful treat day out

TAKE A BREAK

This is a wonderful treat day out for Peppa Pig fans. It is pricey, but not when compared to other kids' themed afternoon tea options we've looked at in London, and it's a lovely way to explore London with a young child. The food was delicious, while also being child-friendly, and the staff were warm, friendly and efficient. The whole experience was well organised, and as an adult, I was surprised to find that I enjoyed it as much as Reuben did. We'd rate it a 4.3 out of 5.

Highly recommend for families with kids!

From the moment we stepped onto the bus, the staff made us feel so welcome and cared for. From greeting us warmly, serving the afternoon tea, and sharing stories along the way, to making sure our daughter was fully engaged and happy throughout the sightseeing tour, their energy and kindness truly stood out. This was not just a tour, but a wonderful family memory we’ll cherish. Highly recommended for families visiting London with little ones and huge thanks again to the team for making it so magical!

Fantastic Experience

Booked for 2 couples (all around aged 50 😉) for tour and afternoon tea. Greeted by very pleasant and fun staff. Sandwiches and cakes were already at our table and very well presented. Tasted great and was more than enough (couldn't finish it all). We had 2 bottles prosecco pre-ordered and both were chilled and served as required. Good mix of upbeat music for all ages played throughout the 90 minute tour. Little snippets of information on the sites thrown in too

Amazing experience on the Peppa Pig Afternoon Tea

I took my daughter on the Peppa Pig experience. It was absolutely amazing - the food was excellent; the vegan option was superb. The tour was an hour and a half, with excellent activities, quizzes, and sing alongs for the kids - perfectly pitched, not too crowded even though it was full, and the atmosphere was so fun. Holly was an excellent host. Such fantastic value for money - with all that was included, it was worth every penny. My little girl has additional needs and Nas was just perfect with her.

Incredible Tour!

I couldn’t imagine a better way to kick off our UK tour. Our guides Daisy, Monica and Kel went above and beyond to make this experience perfect. We couldn’t recommend enough, you won’t be disappointed!

Celebrating an occasion

We took our friends on an afternoon tea on Brigit's Bus, the food and service was excellent, the staff we very friendly and we had a lovely time celebrating the friends Golden Wedding Anniversary. The weather was cloudy but it did not spoil the trip. It was a lovely afternoon. We look forward to doing it again.

Peppa Pig Bus Tour of London absolutely fantastic!

The entire theme was around Peppa Pig, even my 7 year old enjoyed it because it was informative about the sites of London and my 3 year old loved it because it's Peppa Pig!!!! My mum also enjoyed it as the food was really nice and she got to see the nice places in London! A must try for all!!!! The staff were amazing the food was super delicious and you get to take Peppa Pig coffee mugs home, as well as all the food! Well worth the money.
