Sanderson London: Mad Hatter's Tea

We invite you to “tumble down the rabbit hole” and enjoy the wonderful world of Afternoon Tea. This new incarnation of our Afternoon Tea highlights our collaboration with design collective Luna & Curious, who crafted bespoke crockery for the service.

Menus are hidden inside vintage books, and napkins wrapped with riddles, while teapots adorned with kings and queens and sandwich plates featuring zebras, birdcages, carousels and ticking clocks play host to wondrous fare. Dainty sandwiches on homemade bread including the smoked Cumbrian ham with wholegrain mustard on sun dried tomato bread; and cucumber and chive cream cheese on spinach bread. There are classic home baked savoury and sweet scones with herb butter and fruit preserves.

This culinary whimsy continues with sweets such as ‘strawberries and cream’ homemade marshmallow mushrooms; a carrot meringue served on a bed of pea shoots; a ‘Tick Tock’ traditional Victoria sponge clock and a melting mango cheesecake coated in rainbow patterned white chocolate. Guests will be invited to ‘Jelly Wonderland’, where the most delicious fruit jellies made in Victorian jelly moulds are presented on a lavish Phillipe Stack cake trolley.

The Mad Hatter's Afternoon Tea at Sanderson will continue to evolve, with elements changing seasonally and flavours varying from season to season. Tea is served daily and is priced at £35 per person.
