This is indeed a good idea. I reckon an early tea place for families would be a winner. It's what Aneto should be doing instead of trying to attract an adult evening crowd for cocktails.

It also works better for kids than afternoon or birthdays teas because although there are cakes, by the time they get there they've filled up on more nutritious food, including a fair amount of protein and fibre, both of which slow down sugar absorption.

Clearly unorthodox, if not actually a breach of UK citizenship, but I expect it goes on. When we have tea at Fortnum & Mason my own sister usually orders a cappuccino (doubly wrong if Italians are present as they don't have it after midday).


Kaffee und Kuchen is German for Elevenses.

    • Thanks penguin  always wondered about that place and that’s way more info than I ever thought I would get  (used to live above a gun nut on friern road - he would tell me nothing)
    • There was a Saturday afternoon crowd of enthusiasts, and at other times the owner might have been off acquiring stock. He also repaired air guns, which he also sold. He stocked edged weapons, uniforms, including antique uniforms, air guns and ammo and starting pistols and shot. Some medals and other militaria. Quite a lot of ex service chit chat on a Saturday. I had an amateur interest, didn't deal a lot, in English pattern swords and other mainly 19th century militaria. And made some good purchases there. I'm afraid WWII and later events was the major focus of most of the regulars. 
    • Did anyone actually venture in to that place? I recall it always being closed/very uninviting!
