Triple Crown Afternoon Tea

Experience the thrill of the Triple Crown with an elegant, race‑day inspired afternoon tea. Over three unforgettable Saturdays, we’ll celebrate the Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes, and Belmont Stakes with a rotating tea service that captures the spirit, flavors, and flowers of each iconic race.

For Kentucky Derby weekend, sip and savor a Southern‑inspired tea service decked in red roses, classic Derby flavors, and playful nods to mint juleps and clubhouse favorites. Expect refined tea sandwiches, whimsical sweets, and cocktails that channel Churchill Downs’ most glamorous day.

Preakness weekend, the spotlight turns to Baltimore with a Black‑Eyed Susan–inspired service featuring regional flavors, bold colors, and garden‑party charm. Enjoy a spread of savory bites, bright citrusy sweets, and signature sips that pay homage to Pimlico’s official cocktail and Maryland’s racing traditions.

For the Belmont Stakes finale, our tea becomes the “Test of the Champion,” with a sophisticated New York twist accented by white carnations and classic East Coast flavors. Indulge in upscale pastries, elevated canapés, and celebratory drinks worthy of the race that crowns Triple Crown legends.

Guests are invited to book one race, pick their favorite, or join us for all three and complete the Triple Crown Tea. Dress in your race‑day best—think hats, fascinators, and festive attire—and enjoy an afternoon of photo‑ready presentations, themed music, and spirited toasts as we bring the trackside excitement to the tea table
