A tea time is a luxurious afternoon ritual that typically includes a selection of fine teas, delicate finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones, and exquisite pastries. The menu often changes with the seasons, offering fresh and seasonal ingredients to complement the experience. In the summer, it's important to check ahead, as some hotels may not offer their tea time service during this period. Special themed menus are often created for holidays like Christmas and Easter, featuring festive treats and seasonal flavors, making tea time a unique and ever-changing experience throughout the year.
I have gathered a list of 10 tea times that I have personally tested or plan to try. I'm also sharing my recommendations with you. The third one is my favorite, and the one I recommend to my friends :)
Paris 1er
No list of luxury tea times in Paris would be complete without mentioning the iconic Ritz Paris. Served in the Salon Proust, tea time here is an ode to French elegance, with madeleines and pastries inspired by the Belle Époque. The setting is intimate and luxurious, with plush velvet chairs and a roaring fireplace creating an inviting atmosphere.
