In a ball gown because that's how we roll in N. Devon |
Several times. Because I'm posh, innit.
I once had to buy a skirt and shoes because we randomly decided to go for afternoon tea at the Savoy and they wouldn't let me in wearing jeans  |

You mean you didn't have a skirt and heels in your bag 'just in case'
Such a commoner.

We took my parents to a very posh hotel round here for afternoon tea at Christmas one year. It was a surprise and when we drove up and were greeted by a liveried doorman my mum cried.It was really lovely  |

Had some lovely afternoon teas but one of the best I have had is actually in Coventry at Coombe abbey. They do a savoury afternoon tea and it’s so good! |

I have done, a few times and I love it.
Have to say though, the best afternoon tea for me was in Cornwall, by the sea, warm scones, it wasn’t posh at all, but it was so lovely. |

My friend had their wedding reception at The Ritz. It was afternoon tea for just the bride, groom & their children. The photos were gorgeous. It’s on my to do list

I had an afternoon champagne tea at a local posh golf club. The champagne was very welcome as I don't drink tea or coffee. The finger sandwiches and little cakes were yummy and even the weather was gorgeous |

Like OP tried Claridges, very nice, we were staying there for a few nights before heading off on the Orient Express to Venice so it set scene nicely as did the Bentley from the hotel to the Railway Station. |

Some of the best afternoon tea is to be found in the former Colonies. They’ve carried on the tradition and many of their top hotels use it as a selling point and they are very popular indeed. |

So true. Worth a trip just for that. It's easy enough to do a weekend to some places.

"I love afternoon tea.
The best place I've been so far, was at Crook Hall just outside Durham city centre. We felt a bit underdressed "
Sadly closed now and up for sale 
I enjoy a good afternoon tea! Fortnum & Mason is on my list of places to visit - anyone been?  |
