Yauatcha, Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC), Western Suburbs – Most High Tea experiences have an English influence with scones and cookies but no one loves tea more than the Chinese and the tea trails experience at Yauatcha is an excellent choice for an evening tea ritual. It is a little different here, no scones or biscuits but instead a choice of three dim sum baskets along with a pot of tea and a dessert to round up the experience. Guests can choose from elaborate teas like the Geisha which consists of bamboo shoot, ginger, rose sesame and the famed schizandra berries or perhaps the Strawberry and Champagne which is a green tea blend of lavender, rosebuds and strawberries. This is a set experience for one person and is available through the week from 04:00 pm – 07:00 pm at the restaurant.

Gallops, Mahalaxmi, South Mumbai – The view of the Race Course during the rains is spectacular and here you can snuggle into one of their cosy booths and enjoy their special high tea menu. It starts with the server bringing a box of nine teas for you to select followed by a small tea smelling ritual. All the teas are from TGL Co. Once you have picked your tea the table is full of small bites both sweet and savoury dishes. In case you are not a tea drinker you can opt for coffee or even a glass of champagne.

Garde Manger – This adorable little eatery that focuses on a healthier menu is possibly the most unlikely candidate for a high tea. Despite the lack of a traditional high tea menu, this cosy cafe with its deep wooden interiors is a lovely place to enjoy a different type of high tea. You can pick from two set menus, one including tea/coffee along with Bruschetta, a Salad Sandwich and a Belgian Waffle or another with Ice Tea, Corn Tarts, Som Tam Salad, a burger and waffles. Both menus are unlike any traditional high tea but popular with their guests and a welcome change from the usual suspects. The high tea is available from Monday to Thursday between 04:00 pm to 07:00 pm and is an unlimited offer.
