Spend your Christmas day at The Rubens at the Palace hotel and indulge in a festive-twist of their delicious Afternoon Tea created by Executive Head Pastry Chef Sarah Houghting.

Expect a scrumptious feast of seasonal flavours that pay tribute to the English tradition of Afternoon Tea, including a glass of mulled wine. Guests can savour seasonal finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones and exquisite cakes and pastries to reflect the festive theme.

The pastry kitchen at The Rubens is led by their talented pastry chef Sarah Houghting, who has crafted the Royal Afternoon Tea inspired by Royal events and dining trends throughout the centuries. Their sandwiches, scones and pastries are prepared fresh each day, including delicious delights.

Afternoon Tea is served in the Palace Lounge where the relaxed ambience is perfect to watch the activity at the Royal Mews opposite, or you can step outside to share in the unforgettable daily pageant of the Changing of the Guard.
