Cutty Sark: Entry Ticket + Afternoon Tea

Cutty Sark – the world’s sole-surviving tea clipper – was built in 1869 to bring the finest and freshest teas back to London. Now you too can savour Cutty Sark's rich history while enjoying a truly unique London afternoon tea experience.

Leave behind the traditional hotels and bus tours: at Cutty Sark, you can dine beneath the ship itself!

Indulge in a special afternoon tea sitting directly beneath Cutty Sark's iconic copper-clad hull. Choose from a selection of teas, sandwiches and sweet treats as you marvel at the historic engineering of the fastest ship of its day.

All table bookings include entry to the ship, so you can explore Cutty Sark at your leisure before or after your tea.

The Cutty Sark is the sole surviving ship from the British tea clipper era. With charming views of Greenwich and the Thames at your side, you'll hear about its record-breaking voyages around the world and see a range of authentic memorabilia.

Meet interesting characters in full clipper-era regalia on board. They'll whisk you away to a different time and place with tales of adventure on the seas. You can even get a photo at the original helm – it's not often you get to be the captain of a 150-year-old vessel!

The Cutty Sark's tea-transporting days may be over, but a cuppa with cake is still very much a thriving tradition in the UK. What finer place to enjoy a traditional afternoon tea for two than on the ship that helped start the trend?

Relax in the Cutty Sark café at your allotted time slot (you can look about the ship before or after), and enjoy a selection of finger sandwiches, delicious scones, mini cakes, and, of course, a pot of English breakfast tea.
