    My husband and I tried the afternoon tea here and it was amazing! The tea selection is so unique, and we really liked the ones that we tried. I had a white chocolate tea and my husband tried the applecider tea. The sandwiches were so fresh and delicious, and the sweets were the perfect size. The ambiance at the Windsor arms also can’t be beat, overall it was a fabulous afternoon!

    We enjoyed the ambiance and atmosphere of the hotel, however service was a bit slow and the food did not seem as fresh as it could have been.

    I’ve been coming to the Windsor arms for years so was happy to bring along two girlfriends… but what a disappointment! I would’ve expected more selection on our food plates for the money we paid to be honest and it wasn’t that good. Some of the sandwiches were soggy and not well cut. One of the selections was way too spicy for me to eat- and it was not identified as such when it was put on our table. Another had so much filling it felt like a regular sandwich had been cut and put on the plate. I’ve had better selection choices at the Mandarin! We were also only given one pot of tea each. Very disappointing. Will not be back nor recommended.
