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.

    • They are. We are back to the same construction racket 8am-8pm every day for the whole of this week. The wall is one of the last things to come down, probably on Saturday. Then we can see how much of a mess they've made, especially the quantity of non-biodegradeable litter trampled into the earth. GALA 2025 - Production Schedule.pdf

    • It is intimidating looking through the book sections now.  I sometimes wonder if they're stocking bookshops' remainders. OTOH, when I put  some books out in a cardboard box for taking, it was  encouraging to see that a fair proportion of those taken were aged hardbacks.
