Mad Hatters Afternoon Tea @ The Sanderson Hotel

The weekend after my birthday, my mum and I went for an extra birthday treat to The Sanderson Hotel to indulge in their 'Mad hatters tea party' themed afternoon tea! We've only been to one afternoon tea before, last year, which was just a standard hilton one so I was eager to try a themed one! I've wanted to go to this one for about a year so I was very excited to finally go.
(Warning! Quite picture heavy & apologises most are portrait, I didn't realise when I took them!)
I'm going to let the pictures do the talking here! It was a really nice environment and I liked how everything tied in together, looking slightly mismatched, but in a good way! The plates and tea cups had all different pictures on them (mine had a birdcage) and the jewellery box holding the sugar cubes was so cute and very unique! There was plenty of food, we took some home, with a good mixture of savoury and sweet. I did like the majority of the sweet things but the sandwiches weren't to my taste! There was also a 'Jelly Wonderland' which you went and got an assortment of different flavoured jelly's. Unfortunately I can't comment on the different teas available as neither my mum or I drink it, but there was quite a selection!

I would definitely recommend it if you're looking for a themed afternoon tea in London (it is very close to Oxford Street) and you enjoy lots of different foods. It was a good experience but if you're like me and are a bit of a picky eater it would probably be a bit of a waste, especially considering the amount of food you get! However, it was lovely to step into Wonderland for an afternoon :)

I would also really like to try the Pret-a-portea at the Berkeley hotel as it is all fashion inspired! Possibly a birthday treat for next year...
Have you ever had an afternoon tea?
