Vintage and Gentlemen's Afternoon Tea at Reform Social & Grill

The traditional afternoon tea was created in the early nineteenth century by Anna, Duchess of Bedford, and usually caters towards a more female audience. However, Reform Social & Grill has taken inspiration from the classic Gentleman’s clubs that have influenced the restaurant’s design and à la carte menu to create a tea with a masculine twist.

In keeping with the menu’s dedication to all things British, a selection of all time favourites including finger sandwiches, Victoria sponge cakes will be served alongside hearty Blythburgh pork pie, hanger steak & Herefordshire snails sandwich and meaty Welsh Wagyu beef burger, together with a classic Lagavulin whiskey cocktail all for £26.50.

With the restaurant’s relaxed yet sophisticated setting, the Gentleman’s afternoon tea isthe perfect location for the man about town to entertain guests or simply while away the hours with a newspaper, game of poker or backgammon.

For the Vintage afternoon tea, Head Chef Serge Neil has sourced the finest ingredients from around the British Isles, including John Ross Scottish smoked salmon, goats curd from Thornby Moor Estate in Cumbria and ham from the local Marylebone butcher, to create a vintage afternoon tea that celebrates the best of British. The menu includes classic finger sandwiches with a modern twist, the Smoked salmon sandwiches are served on beetroot bread and the cumber and goats curd served on basil bread. Retro Battenburg cakes, individual Black Forest Gateaux with kirsch cherries and, of course, the classic scones with clotted cream and jam.

Located in London’s fashionable Marylebone, Reform Social & Grill offers an ideal afternoon tea destination for stylish neighbourhood residents, shoppers enjoying the chic Marylebone High Street stores as well as hotel guests.
