Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Tea at One Aldwych Hotel
One of the things that I love about going to new cities is the food. I’m always the one trying to look up fun places to go and enjoy. When I was researching for my trip to London, I came across this Charlie and the Chocolate Factory themed tea, hosted at the One Aldwych Hotel. The hotel is surrounded by theaters, and one of those shows was Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. It would be a fun day to do the tea and then see the show, but my sister and I just went to the tea, and boy was it yummy!
We were seated at a table for two and there were courses, from the savory lunch items, to the fun dessert choices. I’m not a tea drinker, but my sister really loved the one that she got. Regardless, we both highly enjoyed the food and had a really nice time. I love that the theme was Charlie and the Chocolate Factory because it just added a little pizazz to the afternoon tea, especially when the desserts came out. There were mini chocolate milkshakes and even a chocolate golden egg!
Both my sister and I had a wonderful time, and I would definitely recommend this tea if you visit London anytime soon. Granted, any afternoon tea is probably something you should experience – after all, when in England, right?

Awww what a fun post!! I haven’t been to London in ages so have no idea what the hip, cool spots are but I love this Charlie and the Chocolate Factory inspired tea room!
This looks so good!
You really do your research when you travel and what a super fun experience!
So much fun! I love tea and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is one of my favorite childhood movies!

I love doing teas! I visited Waterstone’s book shop in London. I need to go to Foyle’s as well. I’d like to visit there again since the time we went it was so cold and windy it made touring miserable. Lots of neat things to see!
This looks amazing! My husband is a huge C&TCF fan so I might have to look into this experience myself. Glad to see that you had a great time. 🙂
Ooo what a fun idea!
So….. now I need to go to London.
Oh I love Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and this tea sounds like so much fun! I haven’t been to London since I was in high school but I hope to go back one day!
This looks so cool!
I really don’t think you’ve had the full English experience until you’ve attended a tea party. I’ve never really felt the urge to travel before but six weeks into our second hard lock down and I’m looking forward to going away somewhere next year. A tea party sounds lovely. I made scones with jam and cream on the weekend, might have myself a little kitchen tea this weekend.
Afternoon tea was on my bucket list for out London trip but it never happened. There was only so much we could squeeze in each day. 🙂 But this looks like a fun one!
Oh man, I’m jealous. I love teas anyway because it’s more like a bunch of snacks that a meal, and who doesn’t love snacking? And the theme is so cute!
Have you begun scrapbooking your trip?? I hope so! These pics would be adorable in an album. The food just looks so pretty. Like art. Nothing like our fast food over here.
I love a good tea time, these photos look so fun! We just did a tea time here in St. Louis a couple of weekends ago. I was excited the little shop had opened up again and was offering tea times again!
