Beloved and I went last year and ended up having afternoon tea & a sticky bun in The Ivy, Tower Bridge. Bit pricey, but you're literally sat next to Tower Bridge and you can watch the world go by on the Thames.

 

Also, there's some great pubs near The Golden Hind/The Globe Theatre where you can sit in the sun and soak it all up.

Savoy?  According to the current tv programme being shown on ITV, prices for afternoon tea starts at £75 per person.  It did look good.

If you want the view I would recommend Aqua at the Shard tower.

 

If you want pomp and ceremony I would second The Savoy or maybe Fortnum & Masons 4th floor.

 

AVOID the Ritz or harrods.  Too much like a conveyor belt.

Claridges, if you want to push the boat out,  Harvey Nicks rooftop terrace - great views

Check out the Debenhams gift experience sale before booking anywhere.  You might just save yourself a small fortune

A mate of mine, Ziggy, lives in London so I put the question to him. He said: 

 

"OTT and beautiful... The Ritz.
 
Twee, delicious and the possibility of a Tea Dance .. The Waldorf!"
 
 
Hope that helps 😀

Another chum, Kim in Leatherhead, offered:

“Apparently, you can now do a "Breakfast at Tiffanys" hosted by Tiffanys in Fortnum and Mason. I saw a friend do it recently. 
So all you budding wannabe Audrey Hepburns can get the full experience!”
