RIBA Cafe
The RIBA Café on the 1st floor landing next to the RIBA Restaurant is a relaxed setting in which to enjoy breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea and snacks.
The Royal Institute of British Architecture has teamed up with the original tea provider Twinings to launch a new range of afternoon menus for their restaurant at 66 Portland Place. Tea experts Twinings offer hundreds of varieties and blends to suit every mood; and alongside in-house catering company Charlton House, a tailor made selection has been hand picked especially for the RIBA.
Tea menus include the Celebratory Afternoon Tea (£27 per person). Perfect for
special occasions, this menu is centred around a celebratory cake which is prepared to orderby our chef and can be individually decorated to commemorate a birthday or special event.* This is accompanied by a glass of champagne, a selection of freshly prepared finger sandwiches, traditional scones and Devonshire clotted cream, an assortment of home made cakes and a choice of tea from the Twining Tea Rituals Range. Alternatively guests can indulge in the Traditional Afternoon Tea (£16 per person); while The Champagne Afternoon Tea (£22.00 per person) adds an extra fizz to an afternoon treat.
Afternoon tea is available Monday – Friday between 3pm and 5.30pm. Reservations are essential - please call: 020 7631 0467 or e-mail: catering@inst.riba.org|
