Updated Afternoon Tea Promotions in Singapore (January 2023 Edition)

Few other things are as evocative of the leisurely life as spending the afternoon socializing with friends and family over scones, cakes and finger sandwiches laid out nicely on a three-tier stand. Afternoon teas have only increased in popularity following the new normal as more folks take it slow and focus more on personal wellness.

In this article, I try to show all the updated afternoon tea offerings at the moment. Afternoon tea sets tend to get refreshed every few months so without further ado, these are the promotions you can check out this month.

Afternoon Tea Promotions in Singapore (January 2023)

Hotel Jen Tanglin Singapore

*Top Pick for a Filling Afternoon Tea Buffet* The high tea at J65 in Hotel Jen Tanglin Singapore can probably substitute as a late lunch (it starts from 12:30PM every Saturday and Sunday) given that it is served in a buffet format and includes heavier mains such as Chicken Rendang, Oxtail Stew, Herb Roasted Chicken with Buttered Vegetables and more. These dishes are interspersed with more common afternoon tea delights like Nyonya Kueh Pie Tee, Quiche, a variety of sandiwches and cakes. The only downside to this format is that you don’t get to feel like a tai tai sitting with a 3-tier stand. Note that some of the dishes may be altered in view of the festive season.

InterContinental Singapore

The Lobby Lounge at InterContinental Singapore has 3 types of afternoon tea sets available. The first is their seasonal classic afternoon tea offering.

This set will be available until 30th April.

The higher tier Heritage Royal Luxury Afternoon Tea on the other hand, comes with a glass of champagne as a standard inclusion. Light bites include Ayam Buah Keluak Crostini, Caviar and Smoked Salmon Pumpernickel and Chilli Lobster Sandwich tucked in a mini roll with crushed peanuts.

Window on the Park at Holiday Inn Singapore Orchard City Centre has one of the more underrated afternoon teas in Singapore.

There are quite a few interesting items in their set including Golden Bak Kwa and Cheese Croissant, Prawn Treasure with Caviar, Carrot Cake as well as Cranberry Scones. This is a halal-certified afternoon tea.
