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.

Cute way to see London

Afternoon Tea + London bus is a brilliant combination. Nice staff and good music in the background. We really enjoyed it. And it looks good in Instagram!

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

The food was first class as was the service

Surprised my wife on her 50th birthday with a group of 14 friends/family on the tour bus. It was absolutely fabulous and everyone had a great time, the food was first class as was the service. I asked them to make a birthday cake and wow it was amazing! The tour itself was also fab and credit to the driver as he must have nerves of steel. I can’t remember the waitresses names but both were so professional and nothing was too much trouble. Top marks and well done Brigit’s Bakery.

Luxury afternoon

A wonderful experience food drinks and excellent service. We went at 3pm, were not rushed in any way and the cocktails were top notch.

What a gorgeous place!!

I’m sat here now writing this review. This bakery is the most stunning bakery I’ve ever been to! Cakes are delicious, service friendly too! The decorations are so delicate and precise - you feel like you’ve entered a wonderland.

Kianat

Highly recommend!!

Highly recommend, lovely atmosphere, kind and accommodating staff and the food was fantastic! Offered a gluten free option for my friend which sometimes is an issue and lacks in quality but not that case for Brigit’s Bakery! Also allowed me to swap a hot drink for cold at no additional cost. London isn’t just round the corner for us however we will be returning! Wish I had room to try some of the other cakes they had to offer, they looked terrific!
