I'll second Fortnum and Mason -- also an excellent place to buy loose tea,
but you should understand that "High Tea" is (or was) evening tea for common
people. I think what you are asking about is "Afternoon Tea". See
http://coffeetea.about.com/cs/culture/a/aftervshigh.htm.

Afternoon tea at the Savoy starts at about ?24 ($40+) per person (see
http://www.the-savoy-group.com/Savoy/Restaurants-and-Bars/Afternoon_Tea/info
rmation.asp#)

(Guess who has an English wife).

What does "Pricey" mean in this context? I have no idea and would like to.

Thanks
