In keeping with the island’s Old World British heritage, indulge in afternoon tea at Heritage Court at Fairmont Hamilton Princess. Recently praised by the New York Times as having the best afternoon tea in Bermuda, The Heritage Court is proud to continue this thoroughly British tradition dating back to the early 1800s. Popularized by then Queen Victoria – the custom of taking tea in the afternoon is now a signature event of the hotel, where everything featured on the menu, including the breads, scones and pastries, are homemade in their pastry shop, and served on elegant silver trays, the perfect accompaniments to steaming pots of English tea in fine Belgian china kettles.

In Hamilton, learn the secrets to the tastiest authentic dishes from Bermudian chef Cheryl Kerr, during a Bermuda Cookery Demonstration, located in the No. 6 Passenger Terminal, Front Street. Here, Bermudian cuisine is showcased as a ‘melting pot’ of ethnic influences. (Note: this is a seasonal event; your Time & Place concierge will happily advise.)
