    This place was suggested by a friend and it did not disappoint. From the lobby, to the waiting area to the table. We were lucky enough to be seated at a window. All of the food at the afternoon tea was exceptional. Our waiter Diego did an excellent job of recommending champagne and tea. The price was well worth the money, 10/10 recommend.

    I highly recommend this afternoon tea. I went with my partner and daughter for my birthday but feel this would be an ideal experience to meet up with a group as we didn’t feel rushed in any way and neither did it seem any of the other guests. There was a wonderful choice of savouries with two perfectly sized scones ( one plain, one fruit) and a delightful selection of sweet offerings. There was also a lovely surprise I’d not been aware of when I made the booking, but I won’t mention it here so as not to spoil it for others. Unable to finish all the sweet items, we asked for a box to take the remaining items which we were given. My only criticism being that after being served our afternoon tea no one checked in on us to see if we wanted any drinks top ups ( included). My daughter managed to gain the attention of a busy staff member setting up for the evening service to request a top up of our tea. The tea seemed rather weak as if boiling water had been added to the original tea bag in the pot, which had been in there since initially served, and we weren’t asked if we required any additional milk. Based on prices paid for other afternoon tea experiences and the little included ‘surprise’, the location of this afternoon tea along with the ambience, I would say it is good value but you do need to take into consideration that a 12.5% service charge is added to the price of the afternoon tea, so it’s a little more than stated ( although, of course this is a voluntary charge)
