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.

A truly five star experience! Staff were flawless, the afternoon tea was a delight; the sandwiches and pastries were very good. We didn’t realise one could ask for more sandwiches, otherwise we would have attended with more of an appetite! Coffee (decaf available) was offered as an alternative to tea which was appreciated.
