Queen Anne's 18th-century Orangery, in the heart of Kensington Gardens, once the setting for the most lavish of court entertainments, is the perfect location for an elegant lunch or an indulgent afternoon tea.

When the weather is fine, sit outside on the terrace and enjoy the views of the palace and its elegant gardens. The Orangery is sometimes closed for private functions and you will find the list of closure dates below.
