The Diamond Jubilee Tea Salon

I have been to quite a few afternoon teas. This one I would describe as the worst for the price. The minimum price is GBP 90 as there is « discretionary » service charge to the stated list price, though it is now normal for UK establishments. The quality of food was good, but the sweet treats were melting when they were brought. China is well worn out. The main problem is the service, which was non-existent compared to similar establishments. Just to name the few: We were not asked if we want aperitifs aperitifs were not brought together for everyone and we had to wait for 20 min for the last one to arrive The refill hot water was plated all over the table and it was miracle that no one was...

This is a quintessential afternoon tea in a lovely tea salon. Our server was very nice and explained the differences between the tea options. There is a classic option, a savory option and a high tea option which all serve slightly different things. There are many tea flavors to choose from and there were other beverage options as well. The food was nice but I don’t think you’ll necessarily be wowed. You can ask for more items if you’d like (like another set of sandwiches, etc. Our table was full as there were four of us. So we had two three-tiered trays on the table as well as a 3rd that had the items for two people. The condiments are also on their own tiered trays. So lots of items on you...

Was truly on the fence about having Afternoon Tea here because the reviews were so mixed but opted to just give it a-go and can 100% vouch for those that stated this place is highly overrated. Service was extremely slow, we had a weird pungent scent of fish near our table the entire time- server was nice enough but not very attentive. The scones were some of the best I've ever had so kudos to that (clotted cream was nice as well) but the sandwiches were nothing to rave about/very forgettable and the entire sweets portion were NOT good at all (I didn't finish anythingggg); even my tea selection was a standard drip tea bag and not loose. They do offer you one additional slice of cake- so I wen...

I felt like I couldn't leave London without experiencing some Afternoon Tea. Naturally there's tons of choices here, but I opted for the Diamond Jubilee Tea Salon after reading all the glowing reviews and seeing pictures of the elegant interior. I ordered the Savory Afternoon Tea. My favorites were essentially all of the patisseries! It runs £80, so this is definitely more of a special occasion deal. However they do let you try more than one tea and offer refills on any of the food items you liked. They seem to take a team approach to their service. So I had no issues with any request I had. All of the staff were extremely friendly and helpful with any questions I had. Reserve uma mesa agora

As a birthday treat it was a lovely occasion in a pleasant environment. Food was nice especially the savoury tea £85 . Generous portions if you ask for more and super little card boxes to take away the uneaten food. It is over priced at £80 for finger sandwiches, tea/ coffee, scones and cake. It is an additional £17.50 for a glass of champagne that is £45 a bottle in the Food Basement of the shop . Service was good if clumsy there were two incidents while we were there. There are better tea time experiences for the price elsewhere.

Really disappointed in our experience. The food was O, although cakes dry and seemed stale, gluten free scones best I have ever had, hence an extra star! Champagne awful quality. Service really poor; our waitress really couldn't be bothered, but the chap who brought our food was lovely. I know they are busy, but I expected good service and didn't get it. Shame.

Went for afternoon tea. Pretty average for the price. Expensive so expected delicious sandwiches, cakes and scones, but they were nice but not exceptional which is what I expected for the price. Scones were dry. Bread not that nice, fillings were good. Cakes good. Good service. But wouldn't go again for the price.

This tea room is located in an upscale department store. It's hard not to walk around and window shop. The tea room is very nice. The food was wonderful and they just kept being more. They even gave us two bags of desserts too take back to our hotel. Reserve uma mesa agora

Excellent decor, vibe, and afternoon tea service. Sandwiches, scones and deserts were fresh and tasty! Impeccable service. Lots of shopping for gifts afterwards too! We will definitely return and recommend to friends.

While this has to be the most expensive afternoon tea I’ve ever had it was worth every cent. The atmosphere and service is amazing but the GF afternoon tea was sensational. Once in a lifetime event.
