Afternoon tea is a British ritual that stands the test of time. We've seen plenty of quirky iterations before, so it's no surprise that restaurants are giving it their own coastal spin. Yes, we're talking about seafood afternoon tea in London. 

At these savoury afternoon tea alternatives, or should we say, afternoon sea, you can expect the same elegance but re-imagined with flavours like smoked salmon, shellfish, and crab. Think three-tiered platters filled with fresh lobster and oysters, and indulgent bites like octopus rolls - all served with the same charm you expect from the original, just with a briny, maritime edge.
