As a London dog about town, this is one dog-friendly thing to do that’s been on Belinha’s to-do list for a long time. Really, anything with food involved is high on madam’s list, but with life being so busy these days, we had just never got round to going. So when one of Belinha’s doggy pals Orly asked us if we’d like to join them to celebrate Orly’s mum’s birthday, we of course, said yes. Let’s face it, Belinha would probably have never forgiven me if I’d said no.

Firstly a bit about the dog-friendly Egerton House Hotel. The hotel is part of the Red Carnation Hotel Group, all of which are dog-friendly should you happen to be looking for a dog-friendly hotel in London.

However, the most dog-friendly has to be the boutique 5-star Egerton House Hotel. Located in the heart of Knightsbridge and its dog-friendly reputation is primarily thanks to their much-barked about Dog Afternoon Tea.

With just 28 rooms, the Egerton is not a large hotel so has a very intimate feel. Afternoon Tea is taken in the relatively small but warm and inviting lounge area.

The Afternoon Tea (For Humans & Hounds)

Of course, you can go along for Afternoon Tea with friends i.e. humans only and have a lovely time. But the best part in our opinion is being able to take your dog so they can enjoy their own Afternoon Tea too.

Dogs of all sizes are very welcome, and we had the size spectrum covered in our group. From the tiny (Lilliput the Maltese) to the small (Orly the Terrier Mix), medium (Belinha the Brazilian Street Dog) and finally, large (Claude the Golden Retriever).

Kicking things off in style, the dogs are given their own dedicated Afternoon Tea menu to choose from. On the Dog Afternoon Tea menu are delicious delights of chicken and beef meatloaf, homemade doggy biscuits and doggy ice-cream. The Dog Afternoon Tea is £25 and if your dog fancies a tipple of Pawsecco (Rosé or White), then that can be added for an extra £6.
