The Terrace Tea Room

An elegant celebration, Prêt-à-Portea is the haute couture afternoon tea service deliciously imported across the Atlantic from our sister hotel The Berkeley.

A favorite among fashionistas with a sweet tooth, Prêt-à-Portea has redefined afternoon tea with playful couture cakes turning celebrity fashion moments into edible art.

Straight Off The Red Carpet

The Maybourne Beverly Hills' newly-dubbed The Terrace Tea Room injects Hollywood's sartorial style into the affair, hosting showstopping hand-crafted pâtisserie that marry design, decadent flavors, and pay homage to the iconic red carpet moments, from Björk’s famous Oscar swan dress by Marjan Pejoski to JLo’s infamous green Versace gown at the Grammy’s.
