I took my mum and daughter for afternoon tea in September. We had a lovely, lovely waiter, thankfully. It was his first day, but he was a star and the only reason I gave the 2nd star rating and didn't complain there and then. Worst food I've had in a while for ANY price. Gluten free bread was as dry as sandpaper; the food technology has moved on for alternative diets... clearly not at the Midland, its 15 years out of step and the bread tasted as if it had been in the freezer for that amount of time as did the beef between it. Another senior member of staff was clearly irritated that I had the temerity to ask her about cream ! If you're going for the decor and historic ambience of the 'acclaimed' Midland, then the tea room is mediocre at very best. An expensive disappointment.
