The Tiffany Blue Box Cafe at Harrods

Lovely little cafe tucked away on the LG floor. Although not very big but it makes your experience even more special. Relax atmosphere, staff very friendly, polite and can't do enough for you. Afternoon tea was delicious, refills on any sandwiches or scones, as much tea or coffee as you want. What you don't eat they will box up for you to take home. Drinks extra, alcohol or soft all come with a service charge. There is a 12.5% service charge added to your bill, buy this is optional to pay. Time limit on table of 2hrs which is more than enough time. Well worth a visit

One of my favourite British afternoon tea experience is here at the Tiffany Blue Box Café (not just because I have the same name as the store). The café is small and nestled at the lower level of Harrods. With the limited number of seats, a reservation is highly recommended. Even though the café is small, the tables were big with decent space in between, so you never feel cramped. We were served in a timely manner, and all the staff (from the greeter to all the servers) were extremely friendly and helpful. We décor and atmosphere inside was very Tiffany-esque, and the experience and vibe were elegant and classy. It’s worth dressing up for the occasion. There’s a large selection of teas to choose from, and you may also opt for a coffee/latte instead of tea. This is one of the rare cafes that serve an amuse-bouche before the sandwiches and tea set arrive. The portion sizes of the sandwiches were huge and filling (super delicious and fresh!), and scones were warm and fragrant. The desserts were very cute, and if you have a sweet tooth, you will certainly enjoy them! Note that the food is all you can eat, so once you finish one round, you can order another round! We took our scones home for leftovers, and 2 days later they were still fragrant and perfectly crumbly. There’s no washroom inside the café itself, so you have to exit and wait in the queue with the rest of the Harrods customers.

Cozy, yet beautiful venue for an afternoon tea ceremony right at the heart of Harrods. The prices are staggering - around 70-90/pp, yet what you get covers a significant portion of the cost. Unlimited sandwiches and teas, beautiful pastry and great service. We came during the last intake for the ceremony, around 17:00, and the staff was kindly asking us to leave without allowing to properly finish, around 18:40, which was slightly disappointing. It’s a great experience if you have the budget for it, there are plenty of other venues with prices 50%+ lower and quality of food even higher across London, in a less touristic spot. But the Tiffany vibe makes up for it.
