High Tea Melbourne | Afternoon Tea at The Windsor

Afternoon Tea at The Windsor

THE BRITISH TRADITION OF AFTERNOON TEA IN MELBOURNE

High Tea experiences are abound in Melbourne, but The Windsor is the only place to hold the distinction of 140 years of Afternoon Tea service. Join us in continuing this ritual – with a twist of the Windsor’s creativity – with our Afternoon Tea in the One Eleven dining room.

The Experience

Step past the brass doors of our hotel and settle in for Afternoon Tea, with Sparkling Wine or Champagne poured on arrival, and a selection of 11 specialty teas, including one made just for us: The Windsor blend.

We are proud to offer dietary accommodations, including coeliac and gluten-free Afternoon Teas and a suite of other dietary requirements. Please leave a note in your reservation booking for our pastry chefs to craft a dedicated stand for you or your guests. 

We also welcome special occasions - from birthdays to bridal showers, baby showers and wedding anniversaries.

Reservations for Afternoon Tea open 90 days in advance. The Windsor reserves the right to change the menu items and prices without prior notice. Advance notice is required for guests with dietary requirements.
