For any tourist visiting London, the dainty ritual of afternoon teas is high on the to-do list with Big Ben, the London Eye and the changing of the guard. Understandably when we arrived in London last year, I fantasized on finding the perfect afternoon tea. I’d take my girls, we’d sit by the fireplace and we’d nibble on cucumber sandwiches and scones while drinking tea and hot chocolate. However, some were too much for modern foodies, others too quiet and civilized, others too frumpy. I finally found three options that, to me, offer the best of both worlds – great quality afternoon teas and a child-friendly atmosphere.
