WHY For either a proper British afternoon tea service or a more substantial high tea, both of which feature the Royal Blend from Fortnum & Mason and lovely finger sandwiches and scones with Devon cream.

WHAT The stuffed-animal-phobic may get itchy (Paddington Bears are everywhere), but everyone else will enjoy the charm of this English tea room. Kindly women pour tea, and in back is a shop stocked with such British must-haves as Cadbury chocolate and loose-leaf teas.

WHO Ladies who take tea, grandmas treating grandchildren, and birthday celebrants.
