You can now have afternoon tea with the queen at Madame Tussauds

Madame Tussauds has just opened a new experience where you can have afternoon tea with the Queen.

Well, a model of the Queen, at least.

The Royal Tea will see you be able to book a table to enjoy some sandwiches and scones while sitting next to Her Majesty.

The event description reads: Take a break from your star-studded day out and enjoy a spot of tea in the company of Her Majesty the Queen at our royal garden party.

Tuck into a selection of delicious fresh cakes and savouries accompanied by a classic cup of tea or glass of Prosecco in a quintessentially British and regal setting.

Dont worry – you dont have to eat and drink inside while other customers walk around trying to take photos.

Youll be seated outside to enjoy a Royal Garden Party, where therell be immersive sounds and effects to make you feel as though youre sat in the gardens of Buckingham Palace.

Staff will then offer you a range of sandwiches – ham and wholegrain mustard, smoked salmon and dill, and egg mayonnaise.

Oh, and of course therell be freshly brewed tea and coffee.

The only downside? As well as paying for a ticket into Madame Tussauds – which you can get online for £29 per person or on a 2for1 offer for £35 – youll also have to pay an extra £15 for the royal experience.

However, the model of the Queen in the attraction does look quite real – so its just up to you whether you think taking photos and convincing your friends and family that you really did go over to Buckingham Palace for tea and scones is worth it.
