3 afternoon tea spots in London with breathtaking views, including Up At The O2

Did you know you can have afternoon tea as part of the capital’s iconic skyline? LondonWorld has rounded up three experiences that serve breathtaking views along with a cuppa.

While the city is home to an array of fancy places for visitors to head to for a spot of afternoon tea, those eager to explore London further can also opt to dine with a view. From up in the sky to tours around town, there are a few ways for visitors to take in the sights while enjoying tea and cake.

The summer season will welcome a few new exciting experiences. The O2 arena, in particular, is set to offer guests a couple of unique experiences above ground.
