Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Acton

Great calm atmosphere Great surroundings Great Service The Ganache was outstanding Tea presented and served beautifully Food - perfect portions and very appetising I have been for many teas in London and beyond and would say that this is one of the best.

The food and drinks at this restaurant are delicious. You are going to pay accordingly, but expect to have a solid meal and very good drinks. The atmosphere is beautiful — the restaurant is well decorated. It’s not too loud and not too crowded, which makes it feel pretty posh. However, we had a very odd experience with our server Nelson. He didn’t even say hello or good evening when we arrived and he just raised his eyebrows and said “yes please” when he took his notebook out to order. While I am all for efficiencies (I used to be a server and a bartender for 3 years), part of the hospitality business is…hospitality. This man expressed no smile, no emotion, and no sense of humanness. It was so weird. One of the ladies who appeared to be a manager came over to take our dessert order and she was very friendly, but we couldn’t understand why Nelson was so extremely cold. It appeared that this was his demeanor towards other tables as well. We arrived 5 mins early, didn’t take long to order drinks and food, and didn’t linger. What was his issue? We will never know. We will definitely be back to the Ivy, but will request to not have him as a server.

Lovely staff, lovely food (including gluten free option) and setting was perfect. Cold day but kept nice and warm with heaters

Loved everything about this experience. The service was impeccable and the food top notch. I love high tea and this lived up to my expectations for the full family.

Gorgeous setting with delicious options, the scones were absolutely divine. Lovely flavours in tea, our first visit, certainly not the last. Thank you for a memorable experience!
