Surely even Mr Holmes himself would agree that there's nothing 'elementary' about Taj 51's new Sherlock Holmes afternoon tea – particularly the macaroons infused with 25-year-old Scotch displayed on a magnifying glass. Fans of Britain's most famous fictional detective will also appreciate the cigar made with smoked caramel mousse and a stout beer cupcake topped with 'Watson's moustache'. Rarely for a London afternoon tea, the theme also extends to the sandwiches: think The Five Orange Pips with orange-flavoured horseradish, and the Hound of Baskerville with roast beef and English mustard.

From £35 per person
