This unique afternoon tea pays homage to the secret history associated with the former Old War Office, (today known as The OWO), which played a significant role in the evolution of the Military Intelligence Service into its modern form of MI5 and MI6.

Savour delicate sandwiches and savoury bites, traditional scones with jam and cream, as well as a selection of pastries inspired by female spies who operated from the building, flavoured with vanilla, elderflower and maple. At the very top of the tower sits a showstopping sharing chocolate cake, modelled after the legendary GSTP pocket watch used by the British Army and MI9 in the Second World War to help troops carry out espionage. Choose from an array of loose-leaf tea from all over the world, and enhance your experience with a glass of champagne.
