Afternoon Tea in Peacock Alley Washington's historic Willard InterContinental now offers Afternoon Tea in Peacock Alley.The new Afternoon Tea provides guests premium seating at elegantly appointed tables set in the hotel's Peacock Alley -- one of Washington's prime locations to "stroll, strut, see and be seen" for nearly a century.
The history of Afternoon Tea began in France in the 1700s with what was known as "five o'clock tea". Just over a century later the practice became popular in England in the mid 1800s, when the Duchess of Bedford had trays of tea with bread, butter and cake served in the mid-afternoon in order to stave-off her appetite until dinner, which was generally served as late as 9:00 pm. As she began to invite other society ladies to join her, the Afternoon Tea became the 'in-thing' for the upper-class women. Along with tea, there would be small pastries with clotted cream or preserves, delicate sandwiches, and scones served. Though many people use the term "High Tea" to describe this event, "High Tea" was actually served later and consisted of a full dinner meal. Tea was still served, but there would also be meats, fish or eggs, cheese, bread and butter, cake and, on occasion, alcohol. It was more of a man's meal than a lady's social diversion.
The Terrace Reminiscent of the classic Parisian cafe, Washington’s landmark Willard InterContinental has opened its newest dining venue, The Terrace at The Willard. Withits prime Pennsylvania Avenue location, the new outdoor 22-table venue offers beverages, cocktails and a light menu, from April through October, 11:00 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. weather permitting.

The experience is further spiced up with the brunch's signature Bloody Mary, customized with a wide selection of garnishes and seasonings at our rolling tableside Bloody Mary bar.
