The Lanesborough, one of London’s most distinguished Regency hotels, partners with Cowdray Park Polo to present the Cowdray Cream Tea, a seasonal celebration of British summertime and the elegance of the polo calendar.
Running from June 2 to July 31, 2026, the experience marks the height of the English social season and culminates with the prestigious Cowdray Gold Cup on 19 July—one of the most anticipated fixtures in the international polo calendar.
Served daily in The Lanesborough’s Withdrawing Room, the Cowdray Cream Tea presents a refined interpretation of the classic English ritual. Guests can enjoy freshly baked scones served with traditional clotted cream and seasonal preserves, accompanied by a bespoke signature cocktail: Cowdray’s Cup.
Elegant and celebratory in style, the Cowdray’s Cup is served in a classic coupé glass, its silhouette inspired by the shape of a traditional trophy cup. The cocktail blends Calvados, apple juice, rum, fresh lemon juice, sugar syrup and matcha, before being topped with Gusbourne English sparkling wine for a crisp and effervescent finish.
The Cowdray Cream Tea will be available daily from June 2 to July 31, 2026 priced at £42 per person.
