London Eye Afternoon Tea Experience

London Eye Afternoon Tea Experience Tickets

Savour traditional British afternoon tea whilst enjoying 360-degree views of London from one of the city's most famous landmarks. The London Eye Afternoon Tea Experience combines the time-honoured tradition of afternoon tea with spectacular panoramic views during a 30-minute rotation on the giant observation wheel. You'll enjoy a carefully curated selection of finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones with clotted cream and jam, and an array of miniature cakes and pastries, all served on fine china with a choice of premium teas or coffee.

The experience takes place in a private capsule with floor-to-ceiling windows, offering unobstructed views across London's skyline. Each afternoon tea service is prepared with meticulous attention to detail, featuring classic combinations such as cucumber with cream cheese, smoked salmon with dill, and egg mayonnaise with watercress. The tea selection includes traditional English Breakfast and Earl Grey, alongside more exotic blends. Set menus accommodate all dietary requirements when booked in advance through tickadoo.

Plan Your Visit to London Eye Afternoon Tea Experience

Arrive at least 30 minutes before your scheduled experience for priority check-in at the London Eye Ticket Office. The afternoon tea service typically runs between 12:00 PM and 5:00 PM, with the most popular slots around 2:30 PM. Allow approximately 2-3 hours total for the complete experience including check-in and the 30-minute wheel rotation.

Smart casual to formal attire is recommended, with most guests avoiding sportswear or overly casual clothing. No large bags, suitcases, or outside food and drink are permitted. If you're interested in exploring more of London's riverside attractions, consider combining your visit with a Thames cruise experience for additional river views of the city's landmarks.

The London Eye is accessible via Westminster Underground Station (Jubilee, Circle, and District lines) or Waterloo Station. Only two wheelchair users are permitted per capsule, so accessibility requirements should be noted when booking. For those seeking additional London dining experiences with views, the Shard dining experience offers another elevated perspective of the capital's skyline.
