Afternoon Tea

About our afternoon tea

A teapot and a champagne flute, a fresh scone awaiting its jam and clotted cream, an array of pretty pastries and tier of cakes, or maybe a thinly sliced cucumber finger sandwich…

Rails Restaurant & Little Bar welcomes Duchess of Bedford’s guilty pleasure: Afternoon Tea.

Spend the afternoon indulging in this national tradition that dates back to the 1840s in the heart of King’s Cross & St Pancras.
