Afternoon delight

Columbia Road’s most famous baker Lily Vanilli’s incredible new residency at the just-renovated Theatre Royal Drury Lane had us at ‘Regency-inspired afternoon tea’. Guests will be served in the Grand Saloon, a soft pink and green marble-lined room, and can tuck into delicate pink lemonade tarts with elderflower jelly set with hand-cast gilded chocolate cherubs. A trolley will roam the room serving scoops of heady absinthe mint choc chip ice cream – all beneath glittering chandeliers. Afternoon tea, from £49pp. thelane.co.uk
