Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Marina del Rey

The Living Room at The Peninsula – 5 Stars Afternoon tea at The Peninsula is pure luxury. From the elegant ambiance to the live harp music, every detail makes you feel like royalty. We opted for the traditional tea set, and I chose the caramel pear tea, which was subtly sweet and fragrant—perfect for a cozy afternoon. The desserts? Absolute perfection. Every single one was beautifully crafted and delicious. The sandwiches were just okay, but let’s be honest—the real stars were the scones. Fresh from the oven, warm, flaky, and paired perfectly with the lemon curd and raspberry jam. If you’re looking for an elevated tea experience in LA, this is it. Highly recommend!

Our very favorite fish and chips in all of LA. Succulent big pieces with crispy beer batter. Love the desserts as well. Only time we stray away from our usual King order of fish and chips is when we have out of town guests and we’ll order up some bangers and mash to have a variety.

Avocado toast for breakfast was the best choice. We added some smoked salmon.

Our server was so sweet and attentive, thank you!!

I have been waiting years to experience the Getty Villa Tea and it exceeded my expectations! Everything was lovely.
