Where to Enjoy the Best Afternoon Tea Around D.C.

"D.C.’s dreamy Hillwood Estate, the former home of art collector Marjorie Merriweather that’s adorned in 18th-century French elegance, is the gorgeous site of afternoon tea service for groups of 10 or more. The family-style feast includes miniature scones, chicken salad croissant sandwiches, cucumber and hummus with sourdough, chocolate Nutella tarts, and lemon-lavender sugar cookies with a choice of hot or cold Dammann Frères teas. The price: $40 per person, with $10 supplements like a mini quiche. Call to reserve." - Tierney Plumb, Emily Venezky
