    A fabulous experience, the atmosphere was perfect. The tea was very nice and food very tasty. Service was good with the waitress allocated to us very polite and informative. What stopped this experience being a 5/5 was a little wait to be seated (perhaps due to the bad weather) and wait for food / drink to reach us (perhaps short staffed) The pianist was also amazing !

    Such a shame had herd how lovely it was and looked forward to going for months, but the food was not what I expected. The smoked salmon was not salmon it was makrel (colour and taste) and the rest of the food was disappointing, the waiter was lovely and apologised for are disappointment, and he applied a discount to are bill. "From all i have herd about Betty's "I'm putting it down to the chef having a of day and sadly we went on that day. Also to the cleaners "the mirrors were so smeary the same as the tea pots they were horrible and not shined at all, we also were waiting on someone to take are token so we could get are coats. Gave up waiting and got them are self. So we could have easily taken someone else's, so anyone with an expensive coat don't let them take it

    We had a very pleasant Afternoon Tea in the Belmont Room at Betty's. The good food, excellent service, warm surroundings and piano entertainment made a very special Birthday celebration. Thank you to all the Staff at Betty's.

    Overpriced I'm afraid, the waitress tried but wasn't very tentative, had to keep asking for things, rather than being offered. Been to Betty's several times before but unfortunately feel this could be the last. Very disappointing.
