My lady whom works from home is very very busy so one day I offered her tea, which she likes but it is pageantry of it all that she has come to appreciate it seems. It is a perfect time to check in with one another and share a few moments away from work. The videos are very helpful, thank you.
Good day to you Royal 👑 Butler! I loved that and U will appreciate this little story……. Just this morning, I set up my coffee station in my kitchen for my upcoming family visit! My brother is coming from Honolulu to visit me and he doesn’t care for my French press. He enjoys freshly ground coffee beans, and drip coffee! I love him and we r very close, so I always have a regular coffee maker stored for his visits!! This morning I took pics of the freshly washed and shined coffee maker, coffee grinder, and Hawaiian coffee beans all set up! I sent him the pics and said, the THE COFFEE STATION is officially set up!! He loved it ! Looking forward to ur Friday Conversation! Best Regards, Meg
Does a nice tall glass of Southern ice tea count as tea time? Well, anyhows I’m enjoying my tea in hot and humid Georgia USA and your show in Scotland.
Right, when I have friends over for tea, the mugs stay in the cupboard, and it's out with my fancy teapot, teacups and tea saucers. Show them how the other half live. Won't go as far as hiring a butler, they'll just have to do with me!!
Thanks Grant that was great. You are a character🤣. I love listening and watching your very informative videos.😘 Im now going to find a nice antique butlers tray. 👏👏 I collect vintage English China trios and teapots like posies of flowers and love to bring them out on special occasions and charity events.
I loved this so much! It is great to know how to properly serve tea. Wanted: One gorgeous, antique butler's tray, and one stunning china tea set!! Thank you so much for this wonderful video.
I love this! Tips from a genuine Royal butler! I never dreamed I would have such professional lessons. My grandmother and great-aunt would be proud of me.
Thank you very much RB. Such very handy and great tips for setting up a very practical and lovely looking tea station. And as always, presented with your lovely touch of humor, and I love your Butler's tray. I am looking forward to more videos on your tea etiquette. ☕🌻
This is very informative thank you once again for teaching us Mr Grant! I had always been confused with the purpose of the slop bowl i had seen it in antiquity and didn't know they were still being used in British Tea!
After every one of your tea infovideos I INEVITABLY have to up my tea-making/serving game, which heightens my enjoyment of my cup of tea ( mainly, but not exclusively Darjeeling ). I'm certainly all for more tea-related videos, please keep them coming, along with your Royal Dachshund support ! Many thanks indeed !
Dear Royal Butler, this is wonderful to see what to do rather than reading about serving tea. I plan to have my tea party in a few days and will set up my tea service on the counter top next to my dining table. I will follow your process and serve each cup after pouring.
Hi ,as a whole family we love afternoon tea . My 18 year old daughter loves to make the cake/s and we have some lovely crockery and table settings . Finding tea spoons to fit the more delicate cups was a bit of a task but good old John Lewis staff came to our rescue . We enjoy having a family meal , tablecloth , place settings , three courses ....salad , main and simple dessert or cheese and fruit . As a family we appreciate the ritual of eating together . Whilst I understand its not everyone's idea of a good time ...we love it . getting lots of tips from you and enjoying your factual unembelished approach which is so easy to understand . Could we learn more about wine at some point? Not wine tasting , but how to serve and which glasses to use ...if it could include port and after dinner brandy that would be great . Really enjoying your listening and learning . Thankyou for sharing .
Wonderful video! I love learning how to do things properly. I have many of these items, as I enjoy using fine dishes and tea is a favorite. Please keep these videos coming. Love to see one with the mik and sugar served as well as the tea sandwiches and biscuits.
Yes.. where is the butler gone? 🧐 We see only a handsome gentleman who's left alone with lovely dachshunds.. 🤗🐕🤗 ..but, only two of them, hope the others are still fine.. If i may ask, what are the measures of tray? it seems quite large.. Thank you very much! 🌹 And maybe soon will be cake too 🥧😋🍰
I have tea like this every afternoon, it makes my day much better! Small details make a huge different and sweet my routine! But I do not know what’s the boiling water jar is really for . Regards from Spain! Thank you!! 🌸🌸🤗🤗
You should do a collaboration with Darren McGrady! Some kind of Royal Chef/Royal Butler thing. So much of English etiquette surrounds food. It would be a fantastic project.
I'm crazy about China patterns. So many! Have you ever heard of "Florentine" by Wedgewood? It's so beautiful that I don't know if it would be appropriate. Do you know much about the subject? Very enjoyable video esp the dachshund. So handsome.and sweet. What is that one's name?
Lovely tea station. It so inevitable to relax and enjoy a cup of tea. Do you have a suggestion for a good variety of teas? Do you ever drink herbal tea? Shumba and little royals I send my love greeting.
A delicious episode! Do advise your American fans that milk means MILK not cream. I absolutely adore your china ( Royal Crown Derby?) Here on the torrid coastline of South Florida, I add a table with a large tray of carafes offering iced mineral water flavored with lemon, mint and cucumber slices. And the expected bottle of champagne on ice. ( Keep an eye on your guests.) love to
A great deal of non profit planning and work gets done by by being the hostess at "tea at home or the club". The Royal Butler has hit on an a custom which is becoming more popular than ever.
Lu lu and I have tea every afternoon after we come home from our daily walk in the magic forest. We usually have coffee and orange sherbert but one day when I was visiting the town of Charlotte Bronte, Haworth, on a special celebration day with many visitors and children I overheard the mom say to the kids...Do you want chili dogs for your tea? This was in the middle of the day. So is tea cakes and scones and little sands or is it the middle of the day meal we would call lunch? Ended up making Paul Hollywood's scones as I ran out of Bisquick for our strawberry shortcake and they were absolutely delicious. They seem complicated at first and I know I did not handle them perfectly but they were still really good and worth the effort. Will you please show what foods you would usually serve with teal. It is a lovely thing to incorporate into your day. Thank you, love your vids.
Thank you really much for your videos. Could you possibly tell us about birthday tea table , please? I do not know if there is such special ceremony but may be.. Thank you. I really enjoy watching your videos.
Whatever happened to....Make yourself at home!...Make me one whilst you're at it!...🤷♀️🇦🇺....love Shumbas thinking....I have to go back and watch it now Grant.I was listening and reading the comments...🤫...don't tell RB....
Oh brilliant! And all this time that slop bowl was always sold as a"sugar bowl" in my place. I always thought that sugar bowls were supposed to have lids on them. Please make reviews about different fine and bone china tea set brands and their histories. That would be fun and educational.😍
Having some experience of refreshment service at conferences, it is lovely to see a domestic service. I have a massive thermos jug for hot water Is your collection of china, silverware and items from 1910 or 1920s fashions? I like the styles from the 1960s myself. The Butler's Tray comes with a stand ?
Those cups and saucers are the imari design yes? Ahh those are very rare to find...i found a set of spode cups cobalt and gold ..I need two more to complete the set. I also have an edwardian era teapot on a burner stand with the bamboo handle
Hello from the usa! Yes I've been enjoying all your videos and I have a question for you.. I wonder are the the place settings for meals the same in the US as they are the UK? Because either somebody showed me the wrong way to do it or maybe it was their personal preference or maybe that's the way we do it here in the US. What I'm referring to are the knives and just overall general setup also but the knives I remember she had the straight part of the knife facing the plate and the rounded part facing away from the plate. I was just curious thank you
I miss using my lovely tea cozy, yet I've had two beautiful ceramic teapots that developed inner cracks--probably from water that was too hot. Even if I initially warm up the teapot with warm water, I'll still need hotter water for tea! Any suggestions? Thank you!
Hello, l enjoy your videos, but my, the background music is very distracting. Might l also add that it's not what l would say is afternoon tea music, just a thought. All the best.

Can you imagine him conducting anything 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
A tea station! Wow! Now I must have one! 🤩😀🫖
Thank you Grant! Pleasure as always.
Wonderful vídeo and tips. Thank you.
Ps. You have a great sense of humor 🤣
WE JUST LOVE THE ROYAL BUTLER.....YOU ARE SO POPULAR AND CARING.
I just love your teaching videos and your humor. !
Thank you, Grant. Lovely presentation, as always!
I love you Royal Butler! Your videos are like a warm sunny day! Thank you so much!
Good day to you Royal 👑 Butler!

The butler just needed a little sun. I enjoyed the video. Greetings from Texas!
I enjoyed watching this!
As usual, a delight to watch! Thank you so much for sharing!
Yes, please continue with how afternoon tea is done. Thanks
This was fantastic. I enjoyed this episode. Thank you, Grant.
Thank you very much indeed RB - A tea station makes so much more sense than trying to pour tea directly in front of guests
Does a nice tall glass of Southern ice tea count as tea time? Well, anyhows I’m enjoying my tea in hot and humid Georgia USA and your show in Scotland.
Sounds nice. Tall elegant glasses, a beautiful pitcher, lots of clear ice cubes, and those long iced tea spoons...
I'm having my afternoon tea and watching this
Thank you so much for the help. My tea station is so functional now and it looks much better too.
Thoroughly enjoyed this video and your humour had me giggling away 🤭 What a beautiful tea set. It all looks so exquisite.
Right, when I have friends over for tea, the mugs stay in the cupboard, and it's out with my fancy teapot, teacups and tea saucers. Show them how the other half live. Won't go as far as hiring a butler, they'll just have to do with me!!

I love this video! Your puppy is so cute too.
Oh my goodness. Were you checking how observant we are? Laying of the right hand saucer. Shocking! 😆. What relief you are so relaxed with us.
Dear Royal Butler, this is wonderful to see what to do rather than reading about serving tea. I plan to have my tea party in a few days and will set up my tea service on the counter top next to my dining table. I will follow your process and serve each cup after pouring.
That sounds so delightful. All the best for a successful tea party!
What a beautiful tea set.
Beautifully performed. Feel like a tea now 😊
Such an awesome channel by a true British gentleman andI do detect the Scottish accent. From a fan in sunny South Africa.☺
I thought it is a Yorkshire accent?

Hi. I absolutely loved this video and I’d definitely love to hear more on this particular subject.
I just subscribed (thanks to Julie Montagu mentioning your channel on her livestream). Fabulous video.
Thank you 🙏🏻
Always instructive. Thank you

Super! So interesting! Looking forward to cake……
Thank you! Great teaching!
Keep it coming. Train station 🥱🤣

I'm a new subscriber and am enjoying your videos.
Charming & informative. Does the tea drinker remove the lemon slice before sipping??
Great information! Thank you so much.
Beautiful set of china. Is the reason you strain the tea from the pot because it is loose tea you used?

What is the pattern of your tea service? Very elegant.
You are wonderful 😊
Might be a idea to buy some red felt and put it in..I think it would jazz the butlers tray up abit .
How should one select the table cloths, napkins, glassware and China for events of differing formality?
Expensive China...nice tea set, the silver small footed tea tray is something to covet. 🙏👍
Just as well you did this video, I've been using the slop bowl for sugar🙄
Those cups and saucers are the imari design yes? Ahh those are very rare to find...i found a set of spode cups cobalt and gold ..I need two more to complete the set. I also have an edwardian era teapot on a burner stand with the bamboo handle
Are you not supposed to look into the tea cup when drinking from it?
At one time you were suppose too! But not now.
Make us a cuppa love?! 😊
Hello from the usa! Yes I've been enjoying all your videos and I have a question for you.. I wonder are the the place settings for meals the same in the US as they are the UK? Because either somebody showed me the wrong way to do it or maybe it was their personal preference or maybe that's the way we do it here in the US. What I'm referring to are the knives and just overall general setup also but the knives I remember she had the straight part of the knife facing the plate and the rounded part facing away from the plate. I was just curious thank you
Where do you buy a butler tray like that in the US?
Your parfect hope we can meet up sometime in London Best Regard Yoshiko from Japan
Beautiul! Whats the name of the tea set and the china?
Thanks great 👍
more please ,,,,,
When will there be new videos?
Do you have any advice about how to serve espresso in a formal way?
Will maybe create a video on this !
I miss using my lovely tea cozy, yet I've had two beautiful ceramic teapots that developed inner cracks--probably from water that was too hot. Even if I initially warm up the teapot with warm water, I'll still need hotter water for tea! Any suggestions? Thank you!
Does a metal tea pot stay hot longer than a pot made of bone china or ceramic?
Yes they do,
Hello, l enjoy your videos, but my, the background music is very distracting. Might l also add that it's not what l would say is afternoon tea music, just a thought. All the best.
You are making money from this does prince Charlies know? You have adds so you make vash
I assure you ma’am I don’t make vash, but it sounds a wonderful product. Thank you for watching 🙏🏻
Please tell us what is done when the tea has gone cold, and warm tea is wanted?
