Top Irish hotel cuts price of afternoon tea
The price of afternoon tea at Dublin's exclusive Gresham hotel has been cut by nearly 30% due to a decrease in customer spending. The tea, served with a three-tier cake, will be available for 18 ($25), instead of the previous price of 25. This comes in stark contrast to Britain, where prices for such treats remain high due to a comeback of this typically British pastime, with one in ten Britons planning to succumb to the pleasures of afternoon tea.
