    If you are celebrating and want to do it with afternoon tea then this is a good one to go for. Service was exemplary and the sandwiches, savouries, scones and cakes were everything they should be.

    Festive afternoon tea was dainty small portions but filling. If you eat with your eyes you would think it's not enough but you struggle towards the end as you are full. Constant tea of many varieties What you don't eat you can take home in a souvenir take out box. The staff are very attentive. I was a little disappointed with the decor as it didn't feel very christmasy

    As usual we enjoyed the savoy afternoon tea. We have been doing this for a few years now and my only negative is that the new look that you have created is nice, but my family and I preferred the old style of decor and ambience with the piano in the middle

    Food was very good. But we did not like being squished in for two per table. Had to move table to get in and out. Plus £28 for service charge is extortionate.

    Service was a dream as was the food. Surprisingly noisy and the foyer was too busy with queues at the cloakroom. Worth it, though.

    À lovely experience from start to finish. Good service without being over intrusive. The sandwiches and cakes were delicious with extras offered if required. Tea was replaced/topped up as required. Could not find any fault.
