"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea"
-Henry James -
Afternoon tea was introduced in England by Anna, the seventh Duchess of Bedford, in the year 1840.
The Duchess would become hungry around four o’clock in the afternoon. The evening meal in her household was served fashionably late at eight o’clock, thus leaving a long period of time between lunch and dinner. The Duchess asked that a tray of tea, bread & butter and cake be brought to her room during the late afternoon. This became a habit of hers and she began inviting friends to join her.
This pause for tea became a fashionable social event. During the 1880’s upper-class and society women would change into long gowns, gloves and hats for their afternoon tea which was usually served in the drawing room between four and five o’clock.
Join us at the historic Queen at Chester Hotel for this most quintessential of English customs with our Afternoon Tea served daily in our V&A Lounge between 12:00 and 16:00.
