    We’ve been to 4 high tea events and never disappoints! The place is decorated beautifully and the service is top notch. Absolutely love having Rod as our server. He’s the best! Don’t ever let him leave :) I highly recommend it. Some of the sandwiches could be tastier but wasn’t too bad. They just need more of a selection.
