Best Afternoon Tea London Bus tour - Peppa Pig

Peppa Pig Bus Tour - a wonderful treat day out

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.

Things to do with kids in london over summer holidays

Brigit’s Bakery is back with a brand new Paw Patrol London bus tour, and the mission is to find Mayor Goodway and Chickaletta, who are missing in the capital. Children (and even adults) will love this sightseeing tour packed with puppy-themed sweet treats aboard a classic 1960s double-decker Routemaster bus. Sandwiches and pizzas are all on-brand, and are followed by the bakery’s (delicious!) pup-tastic afternoon tea – with an alcoholic option for ailing adults. Buckingham Palace and Big Ben are featured on this educational city route, along with an entertainer and a Paw Patrol mission screen that boasts puzzles and challenges. All adults need to do is sit back and sip champagne.

A deliciously British experience!

The whole experience was incredible. Went there as a surprise to my friends and we absolutely loved it! We enjoyed every bite of this delicious afternoon tea. Needless to say we ate everything…! The tour was also a delight. Weather was nice and allowed us to see all the beautiful landmarks perfectly.

Fantastic birthday gift

I booked this for 5 Adults for my sisters 40th Birthday and have to say it was amazing!! The food was delicious, the selection of drinks too, and the attention to detail was so cute! You got to keep the hot tea flasks that drinks were served in - and they gave out little pink takeaway boxes for any spare cakes! I will be highly recommending this to my friends!

5 stars

Superb experience

Booked this as a surprise for my daughter before seeing a London show. What an overall amazing experience. From getting on the bus to leaving the bus it was worth every penny, driving around London seeing the key sights and the food was gorgeous. We had the vegetarian and they were varied and fresh. Giving a little box to take home uneaten sandwiches/cakes was genius as it was more than it looked. The staff were so friendly and helpful and I highly recommend this and we will do it again.

5 stars

Everything delicious and fantastic service

The coffee was fantastic one of the best coffees I have had in a while. And that’s just the beginning. Then had the Paris tea which was delicious and a chocolate taste which was amazing. The service was 10/10 very friendly helpful and attentive. This place is a delight. Will want to try their afternoon tea offer next time it looked great.
