Best Places to Drink Tea in London

The British are known for their love of tea, so it is no surprise that London has so many amazing places to drink it. It is difficult to pick the definitive list of the best places but the following offer a wide choice that will suit all tastes.

The Tea House Theatre in Vauxhall used to be a pub but now offers a choice of over 30 different brews. These include black and green leaf, the intriguing sounding chocolate tea and a selection of herbal options. You can even order a "builders tea" if you fancy something less sophisticated. The prices are per pot with the house blend priced at £5. The venue is interesting as it is a tiny theatre by night. The cute knitted cosies add a homely touch too. 

The only problem that you might have when visiting Amazi Teas in Marylebone is deciding which variety to drink as they stock over 100 different varieties of loose leaf blends. Fortunately, the well trained staff are experts and can help to guide you. The more adventurous can even try tea cocktails or frappes. 

Although known primarily as one of the best places for selling teas, drinking it at Fortnum and Mason's in London is an experience not to be missed. You can choose blends that were specifically created for royalty including the Royal Blend that was created for King Edward VII. 

If you complain that your tea is never made exactly how you like it, then you must pay a visit to Good and Proper in Clerkenwell. This was started as a crowd funding venture when the founder grew tired of never having a choice of teas compared to the different types of coffee that were available in London. They stock over 25 different varieties and each cup is custom brewed to the customers specific requirements. 

Deciding on the best places to drink tea is definitely a matter of personal taste but the venues listed here will give you a taste of the different teas that London has to offer.
