Packages on the new menu start at $30 and go up to a pretty penny for a big vacation splurge. Here’s the full rundown:The Garden View Lounge Afternoon Tea menuThe Bedfordshire Tea includes finger sandwiches accompanied with berries, cheese, and lavosh; a buttery scone and jam tart; and a dessert course with the guest’s choice of pastries, strawberries and creme, or English trifle. And, of course, a pot of tea. The cost for this package is $30 per guest.Bedfordshire Tea packageFor a comparison to the previous menu, it closely resembles the former Buckingham Tea package which was $25, but with the addition of berries, cheese, and lavosh.The Derbyshire Tea features all theinclusions of the Bedfordshire Tea with the addition of a glass of Veuve Clicquot Champagne at $45 per guest.Derbyshire Tea packageThe Cheshire Tea is priced at $48 per guest.
