Opinion

The sandwiches, scones and pastries scored 10/10.  All freshly made.

My personal favourite sandwiches.

Salmon on beetroot bread and Coronation Chicken with toasted almonds.

The scones were beautifully light and delicious.

Pastries

Raspberry Mousse Starlet for starters...a delicious tartlet with a raspberry mousse filling

The Earl Grey & Chocolate Orange Crown Jewels...A wonderful light fluffy mousse with a chocolate sponge. What a scrumptious creation!

Peach Mousse...A delicious light fluffy peach mousse with a slice of peach surprise inside. Yummy!

A mouth-watering experience from start to finish. Ultimate luxury and impeccable service. One of the best afternoon teas in London.
