Enjoy afternoon tea in one of the world's most iconic buildings, The Palace of Westminster. More commonly known as the Houses of Parliament, the palace's history dates back to the 11th century when Westminster Hall was used for meetings between the King and his council. Now, the palace has been transformed into the home of a 21st century democratic Parliament. As part of the behind the scenes tours, visitors can choose to enjoy the optional add-on of afternoon tea. Taken in the elegant Terrace Pavilion in the House of Commons, diners have wonderful views over the River Thames. Despite the unique venue, the menu stays true to tradition with options including marinated Scottish salmon with cream cheese, lemon curd and chive on a mini bagel, and egg mayonnaise and watercress sandwiches; plus, sultana scones with jam and clotted cream and Valronha chocolate delice.
