SUSHISAMBA Edinburgh unveils new champagne afternoon tea experience
Situated high above the city on the 10th floor of the five-star W Edinburgh, SUSHISAMBA Edinburgh unveils its new Champagne Afternoon Tea menu - an indulgent celebration of vibrant flavours, premium ingredients and the iconic backdrop of the stunning city.
Designed for leisurely afternoons and special occasions alike, the new seasonal menu brings together SUSHISAMBA’s signature Japanese, Brazilian and Peruvian influences in a refined afternoon tea experience.
The selection begins with savoury bites including Yellowtail Tetsu with fresh avocado, crispy rice, and finished off with a blend of umami garlic miso and tangy spicy mayo, A5 Wagyu Tataki Bun with a ponzu onion jam and crispy ito, a flavourful Black Cod Croquette is topped with caviar and pickled daikon, and Spicy Sesame & Cheddar Brioche with sweet soy glaze.
A signature favourite also returns; the Samba Edinburgh Roll with Whisky-Cured Scottish Salmon, with snow crab, avocado, oshinko, tempura flakes and whisky mayo, in a distinctive expression of SUSHISAMBA’s globally inspired cuisine.
For those with a sweet tooth, dessert offerings include a Peach & Vanilla Choux pastry bite, Strawberry Panna Cotta with a yuzu gel, and Lemon and Poppy Seed Scone with raspberry jam and clotted cream, offering a fresh, elegant interpretation of the traditional British afternoon tea. Perfect for toasting a celebration or simply elevating your afternoon, a glass of crisp Laurent‑Perrier Brut is served, alongside a variety of fine Canton teas and other soft drinks.
Each sitting can be taken inside the beautifully vibrant SUSHISAMBA restaurant with panoramic views of the Edinburgh skyline, or on warmer days, on the wraparound deck for an alfresco experience above the capital. To continue the elevated experience, all afternoon teas are delivered on delicately designed tea stands crafted especially by a local ironmonger - adding a distinctly Scottish touch to this globally inspired experience.
The Champagne Afternoon Tea is now available to book HERE, available daily from 12:30pm to 4:30pm and priced at £75 per person.
