Franchising

Babington’s English Tea Rooms was established in 1893 and from its location at the foot of the famous Spanish Steps, Rome’s English Tea Rooms has become part of the cosmopolitan and cultural heritage, essence of the eternal city.

Today the brand is known to discerning customers all over the world and in the last century has become synonymous of quality and tradition. Since its foundation, Babington’s has promoted a corner of style and comfort in the heart of Rome.

In the 1950’s Babington’s started to introduce a variety of hot and cold dishes to satisfy the needs of international and Roman customers. The menu offered today at Babington’s is the fruit of extensive care taken in combining the international cuisine to the Mediterranean cuisine, giving clients the opportunity to enjoy and appreciate breakfasts, brunches, luncheons, high teas at any time throughout the day.

Babington’s has also become the meeting point for the Italian aristocracy, intellectuals and jetsetters in search of a quiet place away from the bustle of the outside world.

Only a few establishments can be proud of such a record. Hence management’s decision to expand its existing operations by welcoming prospective franchisees. We believe that the key to a successful franchising lies in our management’s capacity to transfer the feeling and atmosphere which are found at Babington’s in Rome. This was successfully achieved in the 1980’s with the opening of three franchises in Tokyo.

Babington’s brand name and know-how can today boast an international and multicultural appeal reflecting quality, prestige and tradition.
