Traditional Afternoon Tea Menu Glasgow

The story goes that Afternoon Tea became popular around 1841, when Anna Maria Russell, 7th Duchess of Bedford requested that tea and cakes be served in the late afternoon to tide her over until her evening meal.  As time passed the Duchess would invite friends to tea, creating the sociable event that we now know and love.
