Are you nostalgic? Do you have a thing for petite vintage cups? If yes, The Tea House Bangkok is a place for you. But wait, that’s not the only thing you will get here. You will get amiable service, great bites, and some of the finest tea as well. We simply loved this place! Back in time, there were two outlets in Bangkok, but later they closed the one on Thonglor Street. However, we warmly recommend you to visit the one at ChangChui and enjoy this back in time afternoon tea.

Okura Prestige Bangkok High Tea

Well, Konnichiwa to all Japanese groupies. It wouldn’t be the first time Japanese style afternoon tea set swept us off our feet. The last one was our Nobu afternoon tea back in Kuala Lumpur. It was superb, that’s all we can say. This time we present to you sakura themed high tea at Okura Prestige Hotel. Here we must add that the themed tea set changes with seasons, while Okura is a delightful standard. Really, Okura afternoon tea is all about details and perfection. You can’t miss the effort put in the presentation and the mouth-watering snacks are just top-notch. It’s no secret that the Japanese are perfectionists and we absolutely respect that. If you add to this impeccable service, you will get a perfect afternoon tea.

Erawan High Tea

Speaking of themed afternoon teas let’s get to the one locally, Thai-inspired tea set. Erawan Hotel is one of the oldest hotels here in Bangkok and their Thai lunch at the Erawan Tea Room did a huge impression on us. Reasonably we had to try also their Erawan High Tea and guess what – This is the best Thai-inspired high tea in the town.

St. Regis Bangkok Afternoon Tea

Erawan tea room is not the only place where one can enjoy a Thai version of an afternoon tea set. A great one can be found at St. Regis Bangkok as well. St. Regis Bangkok Afternoon Tea will come on a dark wooden platter, a nice contrast to the colorful and tasty treats. Some of the sweets were once made only for royal members, but now anyone can try these and enjoy hmmm golf course view. However, if you aren’t fond of Thai flavor you can also opt for a classic afternoon tea set or even some special ones from time to time.
