Paid over $800 for High tea for my wedding celebration with family.. really disappointed with numerous things and now wish that I didn't choose this for such an important celebration - massive let down!
1. The cocktails were pretty much large glasses of juice with no taste of alcohol present.
2. Savory options weren't amazing - this part of the menu needs reviewing by the chef!
3. Desserts were ok.. but I've had better. Considering the price you pay for the high tea the options were pretty limited also.. I wouldn't say 'wow' to any of the desserts actually.
4. Considering there is a time limit to your seating it was really disappointing that the high tea was not replenished regularly. We waited 30minutes before the savoury and some desserts were replenished which is just not good enough.
I wouldn't recommend this place for high tea - there are much better options around!
