Tips for an extensive High tea
High tea; drinking tea for hours and enjoying all kinds of sweet and savory snacks. We love it in The Hague. The tradition once started in hotel Des Indes (see photo above) and to this day it is still 'the place to be for a High tea".
But the choice has now expanded enormously. There are more and more nice places where you can enoy an extensive high tea. Whether or not supplemented with a festive glass of champagne. From trendy coffee shops to classic restaurants or even by the sea; here you will find our favorites!
