Where to have Disney Afternoon Tea in London 2025
We love afternoon tea and it’s one of the first things we look to do on a day out or weekend away. As a family of Disney fans, there is nothing we love more than Disney themed afternoon teas, and there are quite a few across London for Disney fans to enjoy.
I thought I’d put them all in one place to help inspire you when planning your next Disney themed day in London. I’ll add more afternoon tea events as they launch and make sure you click through to each venue to see the latest menus and special offers, check opening times and book your table!
What time is afternoon tea in London?
Afternoon tea varies from venue to venue but traditionally, afternoon tea is served from around lunchtime until three or four in the afternoon. However, many venues offer afternoon tea all the way through until dinner time so you can have it as an alternative to lunch or dinner.

Aqua Shard – Level 31, The Shard, 31 St Thomas St, London SE1 9RY
Peter Pan Afternoon Tea: The current Aqua Shard afternoon tea is inspired by the adventures of Peter Pan on the island of Neverland. Drawing on popular motifs from J.M Barrie’s much loved novel, the afternoon tea is a fitting tribute to the author and his fictional characters. Innovative treats are served on a custom-made tea stand inspired by Captain James Hook’s Pirate Ship, the Jolly Roger, which symbolised pirate ships in the 18th Century.
The afternoon tea includes a savoury selection of finger sandwiches with a creative twist, including a chicken sandwich topped with crispy bacon wrapped in paper denoting the four ‘Lost Boy Rules’, and an ‘Enormous Mushroom Chimney’ – mushroom-shaped bread inspired by the mushroom stools ‘of charming colour’ in Neverland. Quintessentially British warm scones are hidden within a special treasure chest, accompanied by sweet apricot marmalade as well as coconut clotted cream.
When: Monday – Sunday, 12pm – 2.30pm
Cost: From £70 per adult and £55 per child. £2 from each afternoon tea sold is donated to The Great Ormond Street charity.
