A wonderful afternoon tea at The Howard hotel near Temple on the banks of the river Thames.
Alongside the usual offerings of sandwiches, scones and pastries the Howard offers an amazing patisserie selection of London landmarks in chocolate and pastry form- visually stunning and quite delicious- there was copious amounts of food- enough for me and my hungry boyfriend who managed to eat the solid chocolate Big Ben quite happily!
The mauve lounge where the tea is served was blissfully quiet on the Sunday that we went and there were comfortable and plush purple chairs and banquette seating..requests for more sandwiches and fresh tea were no problem and the service was excellent- they even provided a cute little handbag sized box to take home some of the biscuits that we just couldn't manage!
