Ruinart Afternoon Tea Amsterdam is not just a tea, it’s champagne at its most elegant. An unforgettable afternoon where haute pâtisserie meets the prestige of Maison Ruinart, all in the refined setting of Waldorf Astoria Amsterdam.

There are many afternoon tea’s in Amsterdam, but when it comes to luxury ones, the Ruinart Afternoon Tea at Waldorf Astoria is truly one of a kind.

WALDORF ASTORIA AMSTERDAM

The Waldorf Astoria Amsterdam is known for its timeless classic elegance, and Peacock Alley in the lobby captures it perfectly. With its high ceilings, refined décor, and views over the hotel’s private garden, it offers an intimate yet grand setting.

Housed within six historic 17th- and 18th-century canal palaces along the UNESCO-listed Herengracht, the Waldorf Astoria combines Dutch heritage with international luxury. From the moment you step inside, every detail breathes sophistication. Whether it’s the sweeping staircase designed by Louis XIV’s architect or the serene garden that feels worlds away from the city bustle.

It’s the kind of place where time seems to stand still, an oasis of calm right in the center of Amsterdam, paired with the grand luxe service that the Waldorf name is famous for worldwide.

A MENU INSPIRED BY RUINART CHAMPAGNE

What makes this afternoon tea so special is the creative collaboration with Maison Ruinart. Each bite is designed as a tribute to Ruinart’s signature cuvées, both in flavor and in presentation.

Expect a refined balance of sweet and savory delights, each a miniature work of art. One of the highlights for me was the oyster with kumquat, an unexpected combination that turned out to be the perfect marriage of freshness, citrus, and a touch of luxury.

From delicate pastries to inventive savory bites, every course connects back to Ruinart’s story of craftsmanship and elegance.

TEA OR CHAMPAGNE? WHY NOT BOTH.

Of course, the tea itself is exceptional, with TWG Tea providing a curated selection of blends. But if you truly want the experience to shine, pairing the bites with a glass of Ruinart Brut, Blanc de Blancs, or Rosé is highly recommended. The champagne elevates each flavor and turns the afternoon into something unforgettable.

  • €90 per person (tea only)
