We went for afternoon tea there and I have had better elsewhere. I wouldn t recommend it
Afternoon tea seems to be the shift between lunch end and preparing for dinner, so the staff are quite busy and perhaps less attentive than during a meal. Hence the long wait before anyone introduced themselves as a waiter (polite and informative waiter) and why when you get your food they seem to forget you exist.
Then there is the food, great cup of tea but stale food. The filling was great, but the bread was stale and dry. Worse was the scone which literally absorbed all the water out of my body, it was awful, either stale or a really bad bake. The remaining cakes were ok.
It was meant to be a festive afternoon tea, my Christmas cracker must have come from some cheap supplier.
So disappointing. And I m being generous with the two, only because the front of house staff were great when you got there attention. And some live music.
