WHERE
Mews of Mayfair, 10 Lancashire Court, New Bond Street, London, W1S 1EY

A three-tier selection of treats, created by executive chef Michael Lecouteur, is served at the eccentric and rather charming bar and restaurant, Mews of Mayfair. The converted mews houses date back to the 18th century and once had links with the tailors of Savile Row.

Request a table in the cobbled courtyard, or in the adjoining Cartizze cocktail bar or Mews Art Gallery.

WHAT'S ON THE MENU
Choose from a selection of fine-finger sandwiches, such as smoked salmon poppy-seed bagels or a chicken Caesar wrap; top fluffy scones with homemade strawberry jam and clotted cream - and be sure to save space for the delicious selection of sweets, including miniature Eton mess desserts in shot glasses, mouthwatering macaroons and taster slices of Battenberg cake.

Palate-cleansing teas range from whole-leaf fresh Colombian mint to exotic Lost Malawi English breakfast tea from India.

Indulge in the Veuve Clicquot Afternoon Tea and sip from a delicate champagne coupe, topped up from time to time.
