Loved having tea with you Paige! How did we stay there for 5 hours please?! Haha! Appreciate you and look forward to seeing you soon! Xoxox
Hahah it was totally worth it! Can’t wait till our next outing 💕
Shout out to the Hood Brits and Bourgie Brits. Big up!
😆🙌🏼
🤣🤣🤣
At this point Paige, I’m going to live vicariously through you until God make this a reality for me! Girl, that place looked so nice and I’m glad you are building a community. Just you wait, there are more great things in store for YOU!
Thank you soo much Fanchon 😭❤️
Alex is a WHOLE VIBEEEEE ❤️😭🤣🤣🤣 she really told her to breathe in and hold.. relax.. like omg I love her 🤣🤣🤣 and then she took a BUNCH of photos that she could choose from! She’s seriously the real MVP 😭
😆😆😆
Even for a geezer like me, that looked like a really cool day out. You ladies have a lot of chemistry between you.
Thank you!! 😊😊
@@PaigeMariah By the way. Could you give a shout out to me and my wife Denise on our 24th wedding anniversary today. We aren't going to a restaurant or anything but we're having a take away with hopefully a good bottle of wine instead. Thanks.
Wow, happy anniversary!! 24 years is definitely something to celebrate but it will be just as nice with take away at home. 😊
@@PaigeMariah Thanks so much from both of us.

Love the bit about Chadwick Boseman's battle with cancer. It was devastating news, but your friend was right about changing the narrative behind his struggle. Also love that you had a small toast for him and the small bit about race relations, community and sisterhood!
Thank you so much!!
Eat out to help out seems like it's all of UK. Because places in Scotland did it as well. My son and I did definitely took advantage of this.
We had it all over coz I used it in Brighton
Hey Paige, it’s a really good video to make. It’s really good to see that you’re experiencing Afternoon Tea, which is something quite popular pre-covid.
This video is good which shows being more comfortable as well as making new friends and going to new places
There’s more to explore and keep doing that.
Great content & great video
Stay safe & healthy
Thanks so much Mel!
We all need an Alex in our lives she just seems like a bundle of fun! Glad you ladies found eachother ♥️✌️
She’s great! Thank you so much 😊
OMG this was such a joy to watch! Everyone is so adorable! And when the waitress brought out the sandwiches/dessert tray tower thingy (lol) I couldn’t help but think about how I would’ve wolfed down all that 🤣🤣🤣
🤣💕 thank you for watching!
What a wonderful afternoon tea! How great you all hit it off together! New fun friends!
thanks so much!!
One of the treats when we go down to London is we have a posh afternoon tea. We find we do not need to eat again that day. Great if you are going to a show or concert.
Your makeup is always so gorgeous 😍
Thank you so much!! 😊
Those little sandwiches and cakes you get with afternoon tea can be dangerous. They seem so small, like there is nothing to them then suddenly I am 30 pieces deep and wondering where my life went so wrong.
🤣🤣🤣
I'm so glad your making new friends! It can be very lonely when your in a different country and especially during/after quarantine! love your videos Paige!
thank you SO much!!
The energy between you guys is AMAZING! When you make Brit friends, you have friends for life, these are they!!!
It’s so funny because I had afternoon tea for the first time on the 29th! Loved it! 🤣🤣 I live in Minnesota.
Nice!! 😊
So glad you all met up and had such a good conversation in a beautiful setting.
Thank you Alicia! 😊
OMG, everyone is so lovely. This was fun!
❤️❤️
Beautiful Black Queens are afternoon tea. We love to see it 😍.
we sure do !!
❤️❤️

I would've loved to hear y'all conversation regarding colorism and the plight of black women in America and Britain. Maybe in another vlog? The tea looked delightful! Tfs
Paige your such a delightful person and your mates are great too , enjoyed you vid today x
So sweet! Thank you so much 😊
@@PaigeMariah ✌❤🌹
Listen, I need to move out to London in the new year! Idk what it is but my heart has always been longing to be in London for a long long time. London was always my first love before any other European country. This vlog just made me so happy. I love that you both have found a community of just great genuine people. It's what anyone could hope for. I'm an entry-level candidate I know it may be a long road but I'm going to work at this so hard, pray over it, save, and get sponsored by a company.
Praying that it all works out for you!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
The BEST! This is my friends and I EVERY time we get together! Hours of fun and deep convos! Love it!
yesss!!
Disclaimer to Americans: We don't do this on a regular basis. Drinking tea is just lazily getting out of bed and popping the kettle on.
LOL
Innit? PG Tips mate!
🤣🤣🤣
Ed speak for yourself...lol
@Bougie Barb our family and work do, definitely at 3pm , why not, great social simple thing to do , not as posh as a hotel, but definitely love sandwiches , cakes and tea in the afternoon break ...👍👍
I’ve seen this place on Instagram too, need to visit it ASAP 🙌🏻
Love afternoon tea. Best enjoyed like you did with good friends or family for a long afternoon. Good choice of hotel btw as they kindly let me use their bathroom throughout the night last May when I was volunteering throughout the night for walk the walk breast cancer night walk.
Loved this video and the cultural twist on having English tea....it is a revered British activity. Love the community that you ladies are creating....crossing boundaries and countries. I can anticipate great things coming out of the new friendships. Paige you are the consummate collaborator. Keep up the work👍🏾❤️....I am now encouraged to do tea at the Ritz Carlton in Atlanta.
Thank you so much!!
A good time was had by all!!..
Shouldn't be difficult to make friends here, people are friendly enough, just takes time..
True!! 😊
I feel for you Paige, London is a difficult place to make friends compared to other areas. The people are cool but just tend to be less outgoing. I know people who've lived there for years and struggled to extend friendships much beyond work circles. People tend to be more warm hearted and outgoing the further you go up North though generally.
Nice vid, fun people, great setting good vibes all round, loved it. Glad things are picking up for you sis. 😉
Wtf this is the cutest comment section. Lovely vlog!
❤️❤️❤️
This was lovely - I like the rapport that you ladies have.
I am genuinely happy you guys have found kindred spirits. This is what brings the world together
thanks so much!
That look like SO much fun.So important to have picture taking time. Can’t wait to see you all bicycling. I hope these outings continue for your utube also
Thank you Lisa!! 😊
You Guys are AWESOME! Intelligence and interesting conversations...Yes. "Doing positive things" thats correct Alex...Paige you ROCK! The Leader is BLAST! and was ready with ANOTHER outfit...Beautiful in all her Glory...
Thank you SO much!! 😆💖
I saw the woman with glasses studying for her PhD, on House Hunters London a couple of years ago. Glad to see her on this . She's gone throught a lot in life
Omgosh I loved this! You all look beautiful & that afternoon tea spot is so pretty!

Afternoon tea looked amazing. I went to a place in Hawaii with my best friend - it was such a fun experience. I’d love to do the real thing. Didn’t get a chance when I visited London.
So happy that you’re making friends - genuine friends - and having meaningful conversations and making true & deep connections. That’s awesome.
Now I’m gonna go check out the gram! I want to see your pics! 💜
thanks soo much Jessica!!
Not just London doing the 50% off , it's the whole of the UK 👍😉
I figured! Thank you
@@PaigeMariah so now you can get up to the Lakes for a nice break...lol
The lady with the short cut was servinggg ✨🙌🏾😍 ! I loved you guy’s vibe, such a beautiful scenery of gorgeous Black women💗
That was such a nice place. But over £40 is a lot for British tea, but after seeing that place... the ambiance though seemed to be very chill. Then you all's photoshoot too funny!!
Haha thanks Michael!

Thank You Young Lady🕊️ For Sharing 🍵 w/Us. Going To Prepare My ☕ & 🥯 For Breakfast...9:15am EST In ATL🍑.
So lovely! I love afternoon tea. I will definitely try that place. Thanks for sharing!
So glad you enjoyed it! 😊
What a beautiful girls day out and meeting new friends. Loved the hotel and the art of proper technique for drinking tea in Britain. Have you mastered the technique yet Paige? Besides the American young lady, what are the careers of the other two. From the food cart, what did you eat, such a variety to choose from? Oh, is this a five, four star hotel? Thanks for taking us on your "girls day out tea" and making new friends.
Thanks for watching Annie! They’re in broadcast journalism! I had a little bit of everything!!
💞💞💞💞💞 Alex!!!! What a wonderful vlog!!! I love when Fierce formidable phenomenal women get together!! 😊😊😊
Afternoon tea is my favorite English thing to do. I heard that Fortnum and Mason is the top best place to go, too. Enjoy yourself.
Thanks Heather!
Hi Paige I am so glad that you formed a sisterhood with other Black British females. It is so nice realise that we have things in common. I am so happy that you got the chance to sample English tea and cakes.
Thanks so much!! 😊
I watched this with a smile on my face the whole time. Great vlog! 😊
Yayyy thank you!! 😊😊
Whoa ! that was a fancy Dan tea , you all looked amazing , great to see you having a good time
Thanks so much 😊
Paige! the photos you showed look amazing!! I have to go there when I find myself in London next!
thanks so much Joseph! you definitely have to check it out!
You all looked very beautiful ladies🥰 afternoon tea is one of my favourite catch up hobbies alongside the night time experience on the Emirates airline. I cant wait to start going out again soon Xx
Thank you so much! It was a great day 😊
You make a good group of friends :)
Thank you!! 😊
Sis! This video was so beautiful to watch! Loved every min!
This makes me so happy! Thank you 😊💕
Love it!! Teas are so fun! At the Plaza Hotel, last I checked it was about $70.00 for tea. I’m guessing that’s the normal rate.
Wow!
If you had Afternoon Tea at a 5 star hotel in Mayfair or Knightsbridge it costs up to £80 !
I'm sorry what was that breathing thing y'all were doing 😆That part on sisterhood got me, it's so nice when you meet your tribe
👄AWESOME Tea Brunch🍵🗼🌺💜High Tea Time🌻
😊😊
The tea tutorial I never knew I needed!
London is # 3 on my list of places to live out of America... use to #1 pre-kids... anyway... I’ve been told by natives that as a black woman with a black daughter DO NOT MOVE TO LONDON. I still want to. U ladies all look so Beautiful 🥰
Paige, I regret moving from London to the 'States now!!! Pete
I used to walk past that hotel every Saturday - so glad that you guys had fun! Those cakes, sandwiches and scones look lethal :- D
So good!
