Y'all are soooooo cute. I really enjoyed this video. I have watched a lot of afternoon tea videos and y'all win hands down!! You really describe in detail what everything tastes like. I'm glad you showed us your shopping in the different departments. I am definitely going to order some of those teas and jams and have them shipped to me here in Texas. Thanks for sharing.
How very nice to enjoy afternoon tea with both of you! Your husband's eagerness to share a man's point of view is most appreciated. Thank you both 😊. Lady Bell
O what a great afternoon! Everything looked fabdelicious. Enjoyed the store. Great description of all the finger sandwiches and drinks, teas and deserts. I have to say that the Summer cake looked devine. As always, a great trip to the UK. Thanks Soo much Bill and Lisa!💛🌊🌊🌊🎈
What an amazing place!! I love it all!!! Gosh I would need lots of cash there!! I want the pistachio bites, the millionaires shortbread, the pumpkin bread!!! All of it I tell you!!
I’m a big lemon curd and strawberry fan and will definitely order both! Lisa: It was also great running into you at Disneyland. Very gracious of you to chat for a bit. My best to Bill. Your Toisan Lew cousin.
Hi Cousin! Thanks for stopping by Tangoroa Terrance! It was also nice for Bill and I to meet your wife and daughter on Main Street the other night. You'll love the jams!!
Bill’s head shake when he couldn’t think of the word “seeds” had me laughing…what a delicious looking afternoon tea! Very elegant. Also, 65K subscribers!! Congrats you two!! 🎉
Thank you for taking us to this beautiful tea with you. I was not familiar with Fortnum & Mason so it was especially nice to learn about it. They also have such beautiful packaging too! Hoping we may be able to purchase some of their jams on line in the future. They sound delicious! Once again, such fun content to enjoy!
Aloha Bill & Lisa, Finally made to Fortnum & Mason for afternoon tea. What an experience! I ordered the savory my husband ordered the afternoon tea. Big mahalos for the recommendation. Oh yes, we did some shopping too.
The afternoon tea looks amazing! I could probably stay there all day just shopping and eating. What a wonderful way to spend the day in London for a foodie. Love it!
Can't wait to see the next adventure. It'll be my birthday on the 4th. I still Have no plans so I'll just travel virtually with you all and my other favorite Norma Geli. Might live it up next week and add cheese to a burger haha. Have a good one
Fortnum and mason are in a different level when it comes to quality of food,some things are priced at mind boggling numbers but quality is of the best.
So fun! My Mum was a Brit and since she’s been gone, all of us, girls in the family, go to a yearly tea near Mother’s Day. This one looked amazing, and I would love all of the shops. When we were little, our mom would bring us all the cute tins of candies and cookies from there when she would visit. And Lisa, your necklace is so pretty!
Coronation chicken was invented for Queen Elizabeth's coronation in 1952. We still had rationing there, so this was about the most exotic thing that could be made with the ingredients available - chicken, mayo (eggs), curry powder and sultanas. We had so much curry powder that we began airlifting it to West Berlin during the blockade. The Germans invented a new dish using it - Currywurst (A sausage with curry sauce sprinkled with curry powder).
OMG! This is such a timely video. We're planning a trip to Europe next spring, and Harrods tea room is on the agenda, thanks to your video. You had us at "vegsn tea"!. Now we'll have to drop into F&M too. Our friend is expecting a baby a couple of months before we arrive and that Sparkling Tea sounds like just the right kind of bubbly for a new Mama. Lisa, I'm really loving your silver streaks! I stopped dyeing my hair a few years ago. I'm free and never going back.
Fortnum my favorite but also have done Brigit bus tea few times and others try Brigit bus so cute you see London as well get V.I P seats at front so good
I really enjoyed this! I've been watching a few Afternoon Teas on you tube and came across yours. Well done - you offered a lot more in your review than others in terms of how you describe taste of products. Reviews of the F&M afternoon tea by others were good but you really described the experience and I like your camera angles! I don't know if it was luck for the time you were there, but the background noise during your stay was great, in videos made by others it is noisy. Usually videos have a lot of distracting background noises in all London locations because it is always a full house and there is chatting and live music. Your table didn't seem cramped by other tables either. I've just subscribed and will check out your others, especially the Harrods one you mention.
Thank you so much for the nice comment, Joanne. We really enjoyed both Afternoon Teas we've experienced. Thinking about trying Tiffany's Blue Box one of these days. Thanks for subscribing!
It's always a surprise where you will be next. You keep us on our toes. LOL Glad you tried that place as I have been to the others in London. This seemed quite nice.
I love F&M! We bought the jar of honey with a piece of honeycomb in it as a souvenir b/c my husband loves honey. He enjoyed it! Apparently their honey is gathered from the bee hives on top of the Piccadilly store! I love to check out the discounted items (same at Harrods where one time I bought bags of chocolate for friends). Hello from S. Cal (Torrance Beach is my favorite beach btw). =)
Bill and Lisa - we love love, love, love your videos and as we are in Orange County we get to try your foodie recommendations. We just got back from a week in London ourselves (also went on Virgin Atlantic) and went to Fortnum and Mason but just to shop for tea and cookies. I did buy jam but I had to leave it behind as it was not TSA-compliant for our carry-on. Wish I had seen this video before we went. LOL.
Another great video!! The department store looked fun to look around in. The food and tea looked cute. Different style of eating. 😊😊😊 glad to see another side of the world with you guys!!!!❤❤❤ keep having fun!!!😊😊😊
First time watching you guys, what a lovely warm and cosy video! Fortnum and Mason is one of my favourite stores and I’m looking forward to visiting again this December :)
This looks absolutely lovely! I love tea and I love fancy pastries and sandwiches and I’ve only been to London once but it’s amazing! Thank you so much for sharing it you guys ♥️👱♀️🫖☕️
Fortnum & Mason used to provide a lot of food for the Queen. They were her favourite brand for a lot of her food/tea. If you can, try the Ritz for the ultimate afternoon tea. It’s fabulous. But there is a strict dress code.
Enjoy your vlogs but I blame you for inspiring me to check out Harrods and F&M for my London trip coming up soon. Was not planning to but its now on my itinerary. :) Happy travels.
Hi guys 👋🏼 I would love to experience a high tea type settling in London, the little cut sandwich are cute and the scones always look sensational in the UK. Looks very fancy 😊
fortnums --- was the queens grocery store oddly /// never saw her in person - with a handbag and trolley but BP do get food supplies there.... guess its the kings grocers store now -- even not shopping worth a visit not cheap but its the fun experience .... my fav the cheesy organic oat biscuits for cheese and wine ... soft tasty buttery melt in your mouth with some wine and cheese yummy ... William Fortnum was a footman in the household of Queen Anne. The royal family's insistence on having new candles every night resulted in large amounts of half-used wax, which Fortnum promptly resold. Fortnum also had a side business as a grocer. He convinced his landlord, Hugh Mason, to be his associate, and they founded the first Fortnum & Mason store in Mason's small shop at St James's Market in 1707. In 1761 - st james has various royal residences - close to BP and fortnums .. William Fortnum's grandson Charles went into the service of Queen Charlotte, and the connection with the royal court led to an increase in business. Fortnum & Mason claims to have invented the Scotch egg, in 1738.[5][6] The store began to stock speciality items, namely ready-to-eat luxury meals such as poultry or game served in aspic jelly.[7] nice vid ---- well done ... /// seem like a nice couple unpretentious good for them .....
Amazing afternoon tea and vlog of Fortnum and Mason. It's a beautiful department store. Nice alternative to Harrods.
Love how the two of you are equally comfortable at a Las Vegas Buffet as you are at fancy afternoon tea in London.
I so enjoy being a little mouse in your pocket! Thank You so Much, Kids!
Our pleasure!

Quite a good price for ceramic canisters for the Stilton & honey...love F&M, such quality food items & much, much more...
Love, love your Fortnum & Mason experience. Very beautiful wares, food and old fashioned service! Thanks guys!

Enjoyed seeing you both enjoy the tea 🫖 ☕️
Fortnum and mason are in a different level when it comes to quality of food,some things are priced at mind boggling numbers but quality is of the best.
Agreed. Not your everyday department store.
I was there June 2019. Loooved that place 😊
That, backpack is so awesome!
So fun! My Mum was a Brit and since she’s been gone, all of us, girls in the family, go to a yearly tea near Mother’s Day. This one looked amazing, and I would love all of the shops. When we were little, our mom would bring us all the cute tins of candies and cookies from there when she would visit. And Lisa, your necklace is so pretty!
Very nice! Thank you so much!
Would hurt for the servers to crack a smile 😬…. Afternoon tea looks amazing
I wonder about their pay.
I wish my mother was still alive..she would have loved everything about that store including the high tea.
Days a-dawning Bill and Lisa
F & M top notch! Pinkies out when drinking your tea Bill and Lisa 😂
For real! lol

Lisa, I'm really loving your silver streaks! I stopped dyeing my hair a few years ago. I'm free and never going back.
Glad it was helpful! Sparkling Tea was so good and will make a great gift. Lisa's embracing the silver streaks!
Love when you go to England! The afternoon tea looked delicious. Looking forward to the next one❤ safe travels
Thank you!
Was für ein Tag Eure Videos sind toll. Ich wünsche euch noch viel Spaß in England. ❤❤
Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit in Lindon. Seien Sie gespannt auf ein weiteres Video. Danke fürs Zusehen.
Love your videos. Keep traveling. Have fun and safe travels.
Thank you! Will do!
Next time you should try afternoon tea at Kensington Palace Gardens. It's a whole different ball game to have tea at an actual palace.
Fortnum my favorite but also have done Brigit bus tea few times and others try Brigit bus so cute you see London as well get V.I P seats at front so good
Thanks for the rec!
7:58 you two are beautifully in tune with each other. Too often couples forget the love. Not here or with you.
Thanks Wil! 🤗
Would love to see a video of the items you purchased at fortnum and Mason! Great video!😊
I l o v e how you two treat each other!
Lisa , you rock ! Love the intro 😂

Thank you so much for the nice comment, Joanne. We really enjoyed both Afternoon Teas we've experienced. Thinking about trying Tiffany's Blue Box one of these days. Thanks for subscribing!
Spendy tea! Whoa
Congrats on reaching 65 thousand subscribers! Thanks for your whirlwind trip to London. Can't go wrong with Fortnum and Mason.
Many thanks! 🤗
I'm going here this summer with my friends. Missing both of you! Glad to see that you both are doing well :D
Doing great! Thanks for popping in! Have a great time in London!!
It's always a surprise where you will be next. You keep us on our toes. LOL Glad you tried that place as I have been to the others in London. This seemed quite nice.
Very nice indeed. Thanks for watching! 😃
Goals. You two are so adorable ❤
Lisa, gotta say it again, your necklace is so beautiful and it sparkles so pretty on the camera!! Got it in Milan?
Thank you! Yes, got it from Swarovski in Milan.
I love F&M! We bought the jar of honey with a piece of honeycomb in it as a souvenir b/c my husband loves honey. He enjoyed it!

I did buy jam but I had to leave it behind as it was not TSA-compliant for our carry-on. Wish I had seen this video before we went. LOL.
Oh man, that’s too bad about the jam. Hope you picked some up after security in the duty free or Harrods store. Thanks so much for watching!!
Another great video!! The department store looked fun to look around in. The food and tea looked cute. Different style of eating. 😊😊😊 glad to see another side of the world with you guys!!!!❤❤❤ keep having fun!!!😊😊😊
Thank you, Beverly! Always so much fun to experience other cultures and their foods. 😋👍🏼
If you put the jam first it soaks into the scone. Yum.
Tea service looks delicious, especially those finger sandwiches
I just love watching you two! Hopefully I will run into you guys sometime..
Thanks so much!
I’d really appreciated the shopping reviews… Thanks
Great video
Good Morning Bill & Lisa Happy Wednesday 😊
Good morning, Christine! Happy Thursday! 😃
Next time try afternoon tea at browns hotel. Very classy. Thank you I enjoy your vlogs.
Thanks for the tip!
Great Video 👍. I recommend tea at The Goring if you looking for another tea spot when in London.
Thanks for the tip!
You need to do the Ritz for afternoon tea! You do have to pre book in advance though
Wow you guys pack a lot into one day
Respect
✊
First time watching you guys, what a lovely warm and cosy video! Fortnum and Mason is one of my favourite stores and I’m looking forward to visiting again this December :)
Welcome to our channel! F&M is such a fun store to explore!
I order the Christmas puddings for the holidays! We love F&M.
Nice!! 👍🏼
Enjoy
Love the videos ❤
They are taking your eyes out! Better quality at much lower prices at Lidl and Aldi. Give them a go
Now you know I can't eat sweets! Seeing you buy those yummy treats makes me jealous! tea time was excellent!!😊
Thank you, Winnie! 😋
Oh my goodness 🤤🥰🥹!
I'm not a tea drinker however, I could see myself trying this after watching your amazing experience!
Think you’ll love it! Neat to participate in such a time honored tradition. 🤗
Bucket list !
I don't understand why they call the parfum Roja when the bottles were blue. Isn't Roja red in spanish?
This looks absolutely lovely! I love tea and I love fancy pastries and sandwiches and I’ve only been to London once but it’s amazing! Thank you so much for sharing it you guys ♥️👱♀️🫖☕️
You’re very welcome! 😃

They offered, but that was plenty for us. Have a great time!
Hi guys 👋🏼 I would love to experience a high tea type settling in London, the little cut sandwich are cute and the scones always look sensational in the UK. Looks very fancy 😊
Hi Angie! Agreed, they have perfected the whole Afternoon Tea experience. Everything was top notch. 👍🏼
