An eye-wateringly expensive cup of tea has been discovered in a London restaurant, setting diners back a whopping £7 a cup.

The beverage is one of a selection of “teas and infusions” available at The Colony Grill Room in The Beaumont Hotel, Mayfair.

They are all priced at £7 a pop and include British classics like Earl Grey.

While it is made clear on the menu that coffee options, such as an Americano, are available in a pot, you’d certainly hope that the tea would come in one by default for that price, but it’s not specified.

For context, a packet of 40 Earl Grey teabags will set you back just £2.80 in ASDA, which means that a cup of tea at The Colony Grill Room is 700 times more expensive than an ASDA cuppa, coming in at just 7p.

This cup of tea isn’t the only expensive beverage on The Colony Grill Room’s menu and even an espresso will set you back £5 — or £7 for a large.

You can also get your hands on a cup of Earl Grey for a marginally cheaper £6.25 a cup in Harrods.

Another visitor wrote: “20 minutes for the coffee to arrive, we had to chases everything on the order, charged for drinks we didn’t have and then an £80 bill for the three of us!”

Reviewing the tea specifically, one visitor was “disappointed” by the selection on offer, but still gave the restaurant five stars overall.

They wrote: “Popped here for a late night tea. The service was impeccable, the staff always do their utmost to make you feel welcome and accommodate your every whim.

“Little disappointed by the limited selection of teas on the menu however everything else surpassed my expectations. I have been here for a round of drinks on a previous occasion and it had been a delight in every sense.”

Jam Press has reached out to The Colony Grill Room for comment.
