Afternoon Tea has been a cherished Bloomsbury tradition since the 19th century, first introduced by Anna, Duchess of Bedford, as a graceful pause between lunch and dinner. At Kimpton Fitzroy London, this legacy is honoured with a modern twist, inviting guests to slow down and enjoy a timeless ritual reimagined through Bloomsbury’s creative spirit.
