Cutty Sark Afternoon Tea

Afternoon Tea Beneath the Historic Cutty Sark

Step aboard the historic Cutty Sark for a uniquely British afternoon tea experience beneath one of London’s most remarkable maritime landmarks. Built in 1869, the world’s sole surviving tea clipper once carried some of the finest and freshest teas back to London, and today its legacy provides an unforgettable setting for a leisurely afternoon.

Guests can settle directly beneath the ship’s striking copper-clad hull while enjoying a carefully prepared selection of traditional afternoon tea favourites. Savour freshly brewed teas alongside delicate sandwiches, tempting sweet treats and classic refreshments, all while surrounded by the extraordinary engineering and maritime character of this celebrated vessel.

The experience offers a refreshing alternative to conventional hotel lounges and sightseeing buses, combining elegant dining with London’s fascinating nautical heritage. As you dine beneath the hull, you can admire the impressive structure of the Cutty Sark and imagine its days racing across the seas as one of the fastest ships of its era.

Every table booking also includes entry to Cutty Sark, allowing guests to explore the historic ship at their own pace before or after afternoon tea. Discover its fascinating exhibitions, step through its historic interiors and appreciate the stories behind its legendary voyages, making this more than simply an afternoon treat.
