It's one of the themed afternoon teas taking London by storm.

And the great news is that the ever-so-popular, sold-out Tale as Old as Time Afternoon Tea over at Town House at The Kensington is extending its run right through until summer next year.

The various sweets and savouries featured in this whimsical Insta-friendly afternoon tea are inspired by the characters and scenes of the classic film, Beauty and the Beast, complete with charming Mrs Potts and Chip Potts dishware.

This delightful afternoon tea, with a fairy tale twist, is perfect for a family outing or fun afternoon with friends and loved ones.

The menu includes scrumptuous bite-size Venison pies, beef ragu and cheese soufflé along with sandwiches including potted Argyle smoked salmon and crème fraiche and roast chicken with cranberry.

And sweets feature a vanilla and gold jelly, a 'try the grey stuff' white chocolate mousse, Belle's Speculoos dress marzipan and Marie’s sweet brioche baguette along with lots more.
