another option I tried... not cheap, but good reviews
Valeria Bellazzi
Kensington Palace Orangery
- 3/5
- 2/4
Come summer, this palatial venue really
comes into its own. Once Queen Anne’s greenhouse and entertaining
pavilion, the high-ceilinged building is pleasantly imposing while its
large terrace is a wonderful suntrap. The grand setting certainly helps
the packed-in tourists and locals overlook the uninspiring white
crockery and over-potent ‘signature’ orange scones. If you’d rather
avoid the latter altogether, upgrade from the questionable orange-themed
tea (£14.85) to the still affordable chocolate version, Enchanted
Palace Tea (£17.95). Or ask to go off-menu and choose a slice from a
table piled high with sweet options. No bookings.
Afternoon tea served noon-6pm daily Mar-Sept; noon-5pm daily Oct-Feb; from £14.85 per head.

Both of these places look very good, thanks for looking into it! Not sure if we want to do a museum tour at the same time? Maybe we can say bye to Mizuki in the pub afterwards? ;)
Judging by pictures Kensington palace looks like it's worth a visit. But I am flexible and if the rest will prefer greenwich it's fine too.
Cheers,
Radek
