The Sanderson Hotel in London hosts a daily Alice In Wonderland-themed tea party at their courtyard garden in Fitzrovia. Garden Collage recently paid a visit to the space to find out what makes the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party so special.
The Mad Hatter’s Tea Party begins with a selection of highly-curated tea, which patrons are invited to smell before ordering.
