MOTHER’S DAY AFTERNOON TEA AT WESTMINSTER ABBEY: A HISTORIC TREAT IN THE HEART OF LONDON

Looking for a memorable way to celebrate Mother’s Day in London? This year, treat Mum to a special Afternoon Tea experience at the Cellarium Café & Terrace, located within the historic grounds of Westminster Abbey.

Set inside the Abbey’s beautifully restored medieval Cellarium, the café offers a unique setting that blends centuries of history with a classic British dining experience. With views of the iconic Abbey itself, it’s a fitting location for a relaxed and elegant Mother’s Day celebration in London.

A Special Mother’s Day Afternoon Tea

Priced at £36.50 per person, the Mother’s Day Afternoon Tea includes a complimentary glass of English sparkling wine for Mum — the elegant Chapel Down Classic Brut, known for its notes of ripe apple, peach and a subtle brioche finish.

Guests can enjoy a carefully curated menu of savoury bites, indulgent sweets and freshly baked scones, all served alongside unlimited tea and coffee.

The Mother’s Day Menu

Savoury Selection

The afternoon tea begins with a selection of light, flavourful savoury dishes:

  • Cucumber, feta cream and tomato tapenade

  • Truffle free-range egg mayonnaise brioche roll

  • Hot-smoked trout vol-au-vent with horseradish and watercress

  • Pea and red onion tart with lemon ricotta

Sweet Treats

For those with a sweet tooth, the menu features a selection of elegant desserts:

  • Passion fruit and chocolate tart

  • Assorted macarons

  • Lemon drizzle cake with lemon curd

  • White chocolate and pistachio tart with raspberry

No traditional afternoon tea would be complete without freshly baked homemade scones, served with Cornish clotted cream and strawberry jam from Tiptree.

A Unique London Mother’s Day Experience

Located just steps from some of London’s most famous landmarks, including the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, the Cellarium Café & Terrace offers a peaceful retreat in one of the city’s most historic settings.

The venue is operated by the hospitality group Benugo, known for running cafés in many of the UK’s most iconic cultural locations.
