This summer, the Westin Tokyo invites guests to indulge in a delightful adventure of flavors with its limited-time Mango & Melon Afternoon Tea. Held in the elegant lobby lounge, The Lounge, this unique experience features two distinct offerings, each thoughtfully crafted to highlight the succulent tastes of mango and melon during weekdays and weekends.
From July 1 to August 31, 2026, guests can enjoy the weekday's Mango & Melon Weekday Afternoon Tea, which features an elegant selection of savory and sweet dishes. The weekend brings a festive twist with the Mango & Melon Afternoon Tea 'Sweet Summer Escape', available exclusively on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays from July 4 to August 30, 2026.
Set against a backdrop of stunning marble pillars and airy spaces filled with summer sunlight, guests are invited to savor beautifully presented desserts and savory dishes, paired with a selection of TWG Tea and refreshing beverages. The treat menu is highlighted by vibrant desserts filled with premium fruit flavors, such as the red-fleshed melon and fragrant mango.
Each week, diners will also find an exclusive selection of scones made fresh each morning, featuring a delightful blend of yogurt and buttermilk, enhanced with the fruity essence of apricot and mango. The experience encapsulates the spirit of summer, making it the ideal afternoon outing.
For those visiting on weekends, the show-stopping afternoon tea is presented on a three-tiered stand, showcasing a range of colorful desserts, including a light and creamy melon panna cotta, topped with refreshing elderflower jelly, and a decadent vanilla and mango mousse nestled in a delicate pastry shell. Savory options include the flavorful cheese quiche loaded with summer vegetables such as bell peppers, allowing guests to embrace the delightful flavors of summer.
On weekdays, the selection features a glass dessert of smooth mango pudding enhanced with the zest of orange, alongside a salad combining juicy red melon and pineapple with a light fromage blanc cream. Guests can also relish in savory items like mango tartare with sustainable shrimp served with sour cream, and a croissant sandwich filled with jamon serrano and semi-dried figs. This afternoon tea is designed to offer a chic and tranquil atmosphere against the sunny garden backdrop, creating a perfect retreat for a summer afternoon.
The Mango & Melon Afternoon Tea experience is priced at ¥8,000 on weekends and ¥6,800 on weekdays, both inclusive of tax and service charges.
