After Dinner
Just Teddy
This boulangerie and patisserie recently opened up shop at Hyde Park Corner after much success at 1 Fox. They offer the most delightful pastries, macaroons, croissants, mille feuille, scones, cakes and eclairs. You can taste all of this and a mouthwatering savoury platter at the high tea, complete with a golden teapot.
Paul’s Homemade Ice Cream
One of our favourite ice cream stores is Paul’s Homemade Ice Cream. Here, ice cream is made with fresh milk, full cream, eggs and sugar, with no additives or chemicals. Flavours are diverse from the standard Milk Chocolate and Madagascan Vanilla to the extraordinary S’mores and Red Velvet.
Häagen-Dazs
We are all familiar with this ice cream brand that creates luxurious ice cream in decadent flavours. This creamery also offers a range of ice cream based desserts. Some of our favourites are the banana splits, waffles, floats, affogato, crepes, brownies, semi-freddo and the fondue.
