High Tea in the Kensington Palace Orangery

The hour-long tea will take place in the Orangery, an airy garden pavilion built for Queen Anne in 1704 as a place to grow her citrus trees and host lavish parties. (In the rare cases when the Orangery is closed, tea will be taken in a prestigious venue nearby.)

The food will include a selection of sandwiches, scones, cakes and English teas.
