London’s iconic Art Deco hotel celebrates the West End arrival of The Great Gatsby: A New Musical with a dazzling afternoon tea and themed cocktail collection.
This spring, Sheraton Grand London Park Lane, a five-star hotel in the heart of Mayfair, unveils a glamorous new afternoon tea and cocktail experience in official partnership with The Great Gatsby: A New Musical which has made its West End debut at the London Coliseum following its success on Broadway.
Developed in creative collaboration with the show, the limited-edition offering is designed to echo the spirit, storylines and standout moments of the musical, including its name, The Great Gatsby: Only Afternoon Tea! being a playful nod to the show’s musical number Only Tea!
The afternoon tea and cocktails will be served daily from 16 May in the hotel’s original 1920s Palm Court — a Grade II-listed space that is one of London’s finest surviving examples of Jazz Age hotel architecture.
The Great Gatsby: Only Afternoon Tea! in The Palm Court
The afternoon tea begins with an imaginative selection of savoury and sandwiches, each a playful nod to Fitzgerald’s iconic characters and settings. Menu highlights include the Rockefeller Smoked Salmon Tart, topped with dill crème and cucumber pearls, East Egg Truffle Salad, a delicate mix of summer truffle and heritage egg; and the Gatsby Club, layered with roast chicken and pancetta.
Sweets bring a touch of drama, from the zesty Lemon & Jazz-mine Meringue Pie to Daisy’s Tropical Choux, filled with exotic fruit crémeux and finished with a passion fruit glaze. The gold-dusted Roaring Opera, with layers of rich pistachio and raspberry sponge, nods to Gatsby’s love of excess, while the Gatsby Forest Gâteau, rich with kirsch-soaked sponge and dark chocolate, delivers a decadent finale. Served with warm scones, clotted cream, preserves, and a selection of fine teas — or Champagne for those toasting like Gatsby.
Signature Cocktails in Palm Court
A themed cocktail menu is also available in Palm Court. Cocktails include the Gatsby Gold Rush, a bold blend of WhistlePig Rye and kumquat cordial, nodding to Gatsby’s pursuit of fortune; the Green Light Martini, a crisp mix of chive and mint-infused gin and cucumber Lillet, symbolising eternal hope; and the Flapper’s Fizz, a playful raspberry and Champagne serve that captures the spirit of Gatsby’s most extravagant parties. For those looking for a non-alcoholic option, Daisy’s Delight offers a sparkling floral twist. 
A Theatrical Celebration of Gatsby’s Arrival in London
Opening at the London Coliseum for a strictly limited run from 11 April to 7 September 2025, The Great Gatsby is a new musical adaptation of the novel, based upon the book by Kait Kerrigan (The Mad Ones) and music and lyrics by Tony Award® nominees Jason Howland (Beautiful: The Carole King Musical, Little Women) and Nathan Tysen (Paradise Square). The production is directed by Marc Bruni (Beautiful: The Carole King Musical) and features choreography by Dominique Kelley (So You Think You Can Dance)
The show stars Jamie Muscato as Jay Gatsby, Frances Mayli McCann as Daisy Buchanan with Corbin Bleu as Nick Carraway, Amber Davies as Jordan Baker, Joel Montague as George Wilson, John Owen-Jones as Meyer Wolfsheim, Jon Robyns as Tom Buchanan and Rachel Tucker as Myrtle Wilson.
As the exclusive hotel afternoon tea partner, Sheraton Grand London Park Lane has worked closely with the production to bring Gatsby’s world beyond the stage—offering Londoners and theatregoers a new way to experience the show through taste, setting and atmosphere.
