I visited for afternoon tea with my in-laws for the first time, and we couldn't have been more delighted. Every detail was meticulously taken care of, from our table to the cutlery, not to mention the exquisite food. The customer service exceeded my expectations. Initially, I didn't expect an afternoon tea to leave me feeling so full, but we ended up taking some of the pastries home with us instead. The sandwiches, especially the cucumber and apple sandwich and the coronation chicken sandwich, were fantastic. The scones with clotted cream and jam were also delightful. The overall experience was nothing short of amazing, and my in-laws were equally thrilled. The atmosphere exudes luxury, and you feel so comfortable that it's like being in your own home. I highly, highly recommend it. I would happily return every weekend.

Had an absolutely wonderful time here. Myself and some friends visited for the ‘80 days around the world’ afternoon tea which was very lovely! This place has stunning interiors and the service here was fantastic. I would absolutely recommend

Had a lovely afternoon tea here with my best friend. The service was excellent, and we felt incredibly welcome. The decor and atmosphere were lovely and relaxing, and it felt like a special experience. The warm bites we had at the beginning of the meal along with the sandwiches were absolutely delicious (and we liked the little London eye they were served on), but I found all their deserts to be lacking (only had a small bite of them in fact). So that was a little disappointed. The beautiful mousse rose was a work of art, but had an unpleasant rubber quality to it that did not make it nearly as enjoyable to eat. But overall we had an absolutely lovely visit.

I found this lovely-looking afternoon tea, and I really wanted to try it. This spot is inside the beautiful Kensington Hotel. We walked in from the main front door of the Kensington hotel, and the staff guided us towards the back to where the Town House is located. Once seated, our server explained their current afternoon tea offering. It is called the London Landmarks Afternoon Tea, and features all the major landmarks around the city. The menu was quite lovely, and came with a London map of all the notable and historic landmarks. The afternoon tea will feature many of these landmarks, and you get to see what they are, and where they are. The map is given to the patrons as a souvenir, which I thought was really nice! First, we were served with their “Savouries” course. I didn’t know we were going to receive anything other than whatever comes on the three-tier afternoon items, so we were delighted! They were all so very tasty! After we were finished with them, they brought out this beautiful stand in the shape of London Eye! Wow! They call their menu “a celebration of London” and I totally agree! It was fun to eat desserts in the shapes of famous buildings. The service was excellent! Courteous, warm, and polite. We were very well taken care of the entire time. Thank you! If you are in London and want to try some tasty afternoon tea, filled with everything that is London, give this place a try!

Such an amazing afternoon tea in a gorgeous environment. The balance between the chocolate elements and the sharper lemon and rhubarb elements made this afternoon tea exceptional (on top of the appearance of course). The starters (pie, crab cake etc) were also amazing and set this tea apart from others. The vegetarians in our party were also amazingly catered for, and not made to feel like second class citizens as they can be in some places. Real effort had been made to ensure their experience was just as good. Thank you!
