Tea Time is each day in the late afternoons and it provides people with the chance to relax and socialize. In houses, tea is served with finger sandwiches and other light food. The average Brit consumes 3.5 cups of tea per day. Pubs and Clubs Customs Ahem, yes it's true. For years, locals have been talking about new laws in the works that will suspend this silly law but the legislators are moving slower than the Thames.
Restaurants cheat somewhat by staying open until midnight.
A few of those then charge a small cover and stay open until 2 a.m. Still, it's a bit of hassle just to have a pint after 11. The clubs are another story. The club scene is legendary throughout Europe, but there's also an air of sophistication about them that makes it a truly rewarding experience. The dress code is casual for the pubs and creative or stylish for the clubs.
