Sketch Christmas Afternoon Tea Menu
I took my 2 daughters here for our annual pre christmas afternoon tea in london we look for a new venue every year.
Sketch christmas afternoon tea menu. It was only 2nd week into december. I was initially a bit miffed to be contacted some weeks later to be told that all bookings for december had been changed to the festive tea a hike in price and no. Delicate pastries and cakes that burst with christmas flavours the finest teas selected by expert tea sommeliers all served in the fairytale setting of the thames foyer makes it an experience to treasure. I visited sketch to have the night before christmas afternoon tea and i ve never felt more like alice in wonderland in my life.
Selections of tea was ok however i asked for the christmas tea that was on the menu and they said they had run out. Our christmas day afternoon tea brings all the magic of the savoy and the tradition of afternoon tea to make a christmas celebration that will be remembered for generations to come. Sketch in mayfair london is a destination for food drinks music art comprising an artist conceived gastro brasserie restaurant david shrigley s gallery serving afternoon tea and dinner and pierre gagnaire s two michelin starred lecture room and library open for lunch and dinner. From the pink velvet chairs which look a little like a circle of lady fingers to david shrigley s 239 original framed prints on the walls the gallery is a room for artistic expression.
Sketch london is undeniably magical. For and extra 20 on top to the usual i was expecting something more festive. From the enchanted forest entryway to the futuristic toilets this place is a small window into another reality. The christmas afternoon tea was not festive at all it seemed to be the standard one they offer they only thing festive about it was the carol singers.
Celebrated british artist david shrigley has transformed the gallery at sketch as part of a long term programme of artist conceived. I had seen a review of sketch some 18 months previously and always wanted to go so i booked it as a surprise. Afternoon tea awards 2016 highly commended.
