\"IMG_1140\"<\/a>Who doesn’t love afternoon a good long afternoon tea break ? \u00a0It is the perfect pause from holiday shopping; a chance to relax, check over your list and re-energized. Now on at The Urban Tea Merchant<\/a> is their very special Holiday Afternoon Tea Service. \u00a0Cosy into their comfortable chairs at white tablecloth-set tables and choose your favourite tea or treat yourself to Champagne of Tea-infused Prosecco; if\u00a0in doubt they have a tea sommelier to assist you.<\/p>\n

The tea tray will arrive and you’ll want to linger over the vast array of carefully crafted tea-infused goodies, both sweet and savoury.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_1143\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We started with the Sweet France Tea Mimosa and delved into the savouries, favouring the tuna tartare with quail eggs and the chicken Lapsang Souchong chicken cone.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_1144\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"IMG_1142\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The baked scones are delightfully flakey and come with the necessary Devonshire Cream and tea-infused jelly and the salted caramel pudding was devine. \u00a0We came hungry and left with some sweets for later. \u00a0Excellent way to take a moment away for yourself. \u00a0Bonus if you bring a romantic partner as there’s something quite sexy about afternoon tea together.<\/p>\n

There’s a ton of excellent gift ideas for all budgets in the store itself, so be sure to take time to browse through the displays.<\/p>\n
