Hi all,


Have a conundrum that I think the family room might be able to help me with.


A good friend of mine is coming to stay from the US. She's a big foodie and especially likes 'off the grid' stuff like pop up food trucks over there. She has requested high tea this time - probably in central London (last time we did Brockley Market, Melange Chocolat and Ganapati). Does anyone have a recommendation of somewhere really nice, a bit unusual perhaps, in town, that won't mind a newly baby led weaning 6m old (who it turns out loves food so will definitely want to join in on some level with healthy options).


I'm a bit stumped! Was thinking of Fortnums but believe it has carpet?!


Ideas much appreciated!!

We took our little girl to Sketch for afternoon tea when she was less than a year old. The decor and atmosphere are lovely and a bit fairy tale like which kept her entertained. We had a lovely high tea with a glass of champagne.

I was nervous beforehand about the reception we and snotty child would get but the staff couldn't have been nicer and seemed happy to have a small person in the tea room. Pleasantly surprised- we had a lovely afternoon.

The Peckham Refreshment Rooms are doing a pop-up restaurant at the St Stephen's Club on Queen Anne Gate SW1 today at 3pm - 6pm and they are doing afternoon tea. The pop-up is on for another week or so and they do lunch and dinner. I think the afternoon tea is today only. I am taking my daughter to it.

    • If you read the article posted above, it is all very carefully worded. However I've found this: https://uknip.co.uk/news/uk/uk-news/peckham-rye-park-attack-man-seriously-injured-august-2025/  
    • Angela Rayner had this country at her feet but as soon as I saw that photo of her lounging about in the kayak off her new seaside home, vaping and drinking! 
    • This is horrible to hear about. We used to get daily Police patrols on foot & even regular patrols on horseback in the area. I know our local station had some bad eggs, but the officers I came across in the area back then were all a fantastic bunch. Sadly nowadays the Met's presence is non-existent, bar the weekly walk from the SNT. I hope something gets done, arrests made and the victim some genuine support and counselling.   
    • Two wrongs don't make a right. Labour ran on a manifesto of "we aren't like them" and "we are different" and"you can trust us/we will restore faith in politics". They are doing nothing to convince anyone that any of those promises are being met - they are letting everyone down. u-turning on everything and are fast-tracking the doomsday scenario of a Reform government. Even the runway on the "it's all the Tories fault" is running out. I dislike politicians because they cannot be trusted and Rayner just highlighted that with ribbons on. She should have been so careful after the focus on the electoral roll issues she had with the house in Ashton-under-Lyne and then under a year later this comes up. Clearly the advice she took included a recommendation to take proper advice that she failed to do - that's just daft and the most galling thing is that she didn't just resign when this came up - she tried to spin out of it but must have known she was toast. Trust is fast being eroded. I desperately want Labour and Starmer to fix this because the alternative it too scary to think about but the way things are going they are fast-tracking Farage into No.10. Labour are letting us all down.
