$$$$ • Afternoon tea • Washington
Experience Washington’s most storied Afternoon Tea in an intimate new setting at Willard Tea Room, just off the legendary Peacock Alley. Created to make this beloved tradition more accessible beyond select Peacock Alley dates, the Tea Room offers a refined yet inviting space for leisurely afternoons, celebrations, and meaningful gatherings. Guests enjoy an extensive selection of premium teas, artfully prepared pastries, and seasonal savories—now presented on custom fine bone china produced in partnership with the White House Historical Association. Inspired by the iconic Green Room on the State Floor and crafted in England by Halcyon Days, the elegant green-accented cups and saucers mirror the Tea Room’s signature design elements and honor Willard’s longstanding role as a gathering place for diplomats, dignitaries, and distinguished guests.Every detail—from the verdant focal wall to the bespoke china—creates a tea experience that is distinctly Washington and unmistakably Willard.
