Grosvenor House, Rhodes W1 – Want to see how the traditional British lot would like to have their afternoon tea? Head to the Michelin star restaurant of Gary Rhodes where the Classic British theme dishes and freshly baked scones would be an excellent start to your time here.

This place is a little extra special to me as the High Tea, unlike other restaurants, is served only on the weekend.
