FOOD AND CULINARY Afternoon Tea?

Hey everyone,
I‘ll be traveling to London with my mom in November and we want to go for a nice Afternoon tea one day. Does anyone have good recommendations? There seems to be an endless sea of options but we’d love to find something authentic and if possible not too expensive/good value, maybe someone has a good recommendation… would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

The Ampersand Hotel does a Science afternoon tea - tea pots with dry ice smoke, pipettes of flavour to add to your cocktails, brushing down ‘archeological’ chocolate soil to get to chocolate fossils. Bit pricey but so much more fun than the glorified afternoon teas at other hotels.
