There is something really quite quintessentially British about enjoying an Afternoon Tea on vintage bone china on a traditional Gentleman’s Launch. For our evening cruises we swap the Afternoon Tea to one of our signature Mermaids Graze Tables for you to lazily nibble on as we watch the sun set over the River. On all our trips we offer a range of drinks including prosecco, tea, coffee and soft drinks.
