I went with my fiancé and two of my girlfriends on a Saturday at 1pm. We made reservations about 2 weeks prior. The decor inside was lovely with great attention to detail. There were English style teaware lined across the walls and a large portrait of Queen Victoria hung on the wall. The gentleman who served us was very attentive and made some excellent suggestions for our tea choices.
We ordered the afternoon tea and my fiancé and I shared a quiche and my two girlfriends shared a shepards pie. They had a large tea selection. I got the Festive tea which was a spiced ceylon tea. Very warming and Christmassy. The china it came in was beautiful. My fiancé got a more simple design on his teacup while us girls got girly floral designs which was nice. The tea sandwiches were really good (about 4-5 per person), the rarebit is like a piece of bread with melted cheese on it which was delicious (about 2 per person). They came on a two tiered platter, beautiful presentation. Dessert also came on a two tiered platter and was an assortment of shortbread cookies, gingerbread cookies, tarts and scones with clotted cream and preserves. We were pretty full by then and packed up half the desserts to go. We stayed for almost 4 hours just to chat and catch up with my friends and never did the server rush us to leave. He came by to check on us multiple times and offered to refill our teapots.
I would definitely recommend this teashop if you are into teas and afternoon high tea. It is a lesser known place and more convenient than having to travel downtown to those fancier upscale high tea places. Delicious food and impeccable service.
