Mother’s Day Afternoon Tea in London
Spend Mother's Day at Brigit's Bakery in Covent Garden
When it comes to Mothering Sunday, wouldn't a lovely trip to Central London on the big day be a nice treat? You could hit the shops, buy something nice, and then head over to Covent Garden to enjoy afternoon tea at our beautifully decorated bakery.
It might still be a bit cold for ice creams, but if you're thinking cupcakes and cakes then you're spoilt for choice. But of course, we recommend you go for our delicious afternoon tea, served with a choice of tea, coffee, or hot chocolate and scrumptious freshly-baked scones. To celebrate your mum in style, why not add a glass of fizz from our list of Prosecco or Champagne options?
Here's what one of our customers had to say about the experience:
"My wife was given a voucher for their Prosecco Afternoon tea for 2 people for Mother's Day. Booking was easy, as was finding it. Upon arrival, all the staff were very attentive; the decor, china, and setting were cool and somewhat stunning, as is the "high tea". Homemade cakes, rolls and scones filled beautifully and very tasty. [...] Excellent touch. There was no rush to get us out either - very relaxing ambience. Highly recommended, and we will be going back , I'm sure."
Well, they couldn't have said it better. Don't you think?

Celebrate Mother's Day with a lovely bunch of flowers
And if you want to treat your mum to a beautiful bunch of flowers, what will you give her? The official flower for Mother’s Day is red carnations. And that’s handy because those are some of the longer-lasting cut flowers you can buy - meaning your mum can proudly display them for longer. Other popular flowers given to mums on Mother’s Day are lilies, orchards, tulips, roses, and irises.
If in doubt, here are a few tips for you:
- If your mum is quite traditional, give her roses. You can go for a lighter red or a deep pink instead of red.
- Is she trendy and modern? Does she love fashion and bold colours? Then give her a pink orchid for elegance and femininity.
- Do you like peonies? These flowers smell great and make a fantastic arrangement – they can grow quite large, so when you put them in a bouquet, you can get a beautiful centerpiece out of them.
- And if you’re going to go for tulips, did you know that different colours have different meanings? Purple is for royalty and pink is for affection. White is associated with cheerfulness, but also the chosen colour to deliver a flowery apology.
Whatever flowers you choose, remember they don't have to be pink! In fact, if your mum likes brighter and bolder colour combinations, you have lots of choices.
So how will you choose to spend Mother's day in London this year?
