                          We came to the Drawing Room for tea and had the most lovely time! The sandwiches and treats were delicious, but the tea was the true highlight. We were able to try different types of tea while relaxing and enjoying the atmosphere.

                          We met close family to celebrate or 50th wedding anniversary, and can honestly say this was the best afternoon tea we have ever had. From the minute we opened the door till we left we found the staff extremely attentive and very friendly. The food was outstanding, the surroundings superb and the whole ambiance of the Drawing Room was perfect. A totally delightful afternoon. As we live in the north of Scotland, it will probably be a while before we are back in London, but when we are The Drawing Room at Browns is a must. Thank you for making our celebration such a success

                          Brown's is our favorite place for tea. It has such a wonderful feel and ambiance and the staff is wonderful. They are very attentive and always make sure your tea cup is full! We've had tea here several times and highly recommend it. If you arrive early they have a wonderful bar where you can relax and have a drink before tea.
