Gunter’s Tea Shop Was Real
If you’ve imagined yourself being the teaspoon that the Duke of Hastings lazily peruses, we don’t blame you. We mean, just look at that beautiful man! Anyway, the tea shop that Daphne and Simon were seen in actually existed in Regency England.
It stood in Berkeley Square in the 19th century and was actually a confectionary store called Pot and Pine Apple. It was then rebranded and renamed Gunter’s Tea Shop which is what you see in the show. We can’t help but be impressed by how much work has gone into the smallest of details to make this show a raving success.
