Reviews
It is easy to find and good spot for taking a rest in The middle of meseum exploration. Just be minded, you may encounter 10% service charge in addition.
the tea was so so. I think u cn find better food at other restaurants. however if you want to be fancy u can enjoy the experience. this booking allows to skip the queue. When seated, let them know u made a booking for the tea. they will check their system. this way you don’t need to choose things from the menu. (only the tea option. I recommended the mango & strawberry tea.) Food is a lot do I don’t recommend u add more items from menu. let them know if you require vegetarian or pescatarian options. but to be honest, the taste not that great. you can find other food on first floor of the museum. I recommend this tea for the pictures and vibes.
tastes great! restaurant is really nice and has good views over great court area
Take a break and rest your tired feet with an English afternoon tea at the museum.
We used the earliest time slot (11:00 AM) for two people, but the portions were quite large. It might be better to make a reservation for one person and order an extra dish from the menu for the other.
The quality is good, but the price is not cheap. Prices in the UK are a bit higher than others. It would be great if one person could reserve it and the other person could order a la carte on the spot.
I originally booked it because I was afraid that there would be nothing else to buy after entering the museum. I thought that after walking around, I could have afternoon tea and take a break. The tea and snacks were more than enough for two people. I was also lucky that I didn't have to queue.
Experience: The food and drinks are pretty good. It's a nice place to take a break for afternoon tea after visiting the museum, before continuing to explore or buying souvenirs.
A very good British afternoon tea experience. After giving the reservation information, you only need to order tea (no extra charge is required), and you can just leave directly after it is over.
I do not recommend it, for the price and quantity, its better to get it outside. sandwich and pastries aren't good. scones were better but not the best. also is one pot and one tray per individual but overpriced for 60. we only wanted to try it with three people and order extra drinks. foods isn't worth ordering extra
