About
Treat yourself to a one-of-a-kind experience in TĪNG restaurant and lounge at Shangri-La The Shard, London. Indulge in a sumptuous Afternoon Tea on 35th floor of The Shard, while enjoying unrivalled views of London's skyline.
As spring approaches, Shangri-La The Shard, London prepares to mark the new season with the launch of a nature-inspired ‘Bees in Bloom’ Afternoon Tea in collaboration with the luxury jewellery brand Alex Monroe, with its design workshop and flagship boutique located in nearby Snowsfields.
The new bee-themed Afternoon Tea is set to create a ‘buzz’ with enchanting hive-inspired hotel decorations and an exclusive gift voucher for guests to redeem on jewellery pieces at online or in the two Alex Monroe boutiques. With a signature bee pastry made using honey from local Bermondsey Bees, the proceeds from each tea sold will raise funds for Bees for Development, a charity working to reduce poverty and increase biodiversity through beekeeping in some of the poorest nations.
Guests to the hotel in the spring months will be welcomed by ethereal forest-inspired decor, wildflowers, hexagonal honeycomb installations and larger-than-life golden bees inspired by Alex Monroe’s signature Beehive collection. At TĪNG Restaurant and Lounge on Level 35, guests will enjoy the new ‘Bees in Bloom’ Afternoon Tea beneath a cascading wildflower ceiling.
Served on a stand adorned with dried florals, the Afternoon Tea will include nature-inspired pastries such as The Bee, The Ladybug and The Marguerite Daisy followed by delicious savouries and finger sandwiches. The tea will be finished with the hotel’s signature miniature chocolate Shard pastry, decorated with a honeycomb pattern, filled with berry mousse and served over clouds of dry ice.
Alongside the tea, guests can enjoy a Honeybee Spritz Cocktail for £25, with a rum and lemonade base complemented with fresh and flavourful notes of lime, mango, strawberries and chilli-infused honey.
The ‘Bees in Bloom’ Afternoon Tea is priced at £75 per person, or £85 per person with a glass of Champagne. Vegan and vegetarian options are available upon request.
One of London's most sought-after pastimes, Afternoon Tea at Shangri-La The Shard, London is just 2 minutes' walk from London Bridge Station.
