The Festive Afternoon Tea was a truly delightful experience. The tea room was festively decorated and the live music set a nice ambience. Gabriel, our server, was a delight, and answered all of our questions regarding the tea service. Everything was delicious but the highlights were the roast beef on a sourdough crisp and the Montague Bleu tea. All the sweets were tasty and pretty. We will definitely return for afternoon tea in the future.

The high tea savories were stale, gloppy and very disappointing.

The first course was fine. We waited 39 minutes for the second course. They had forgotten about us. One dish was cold, another was served practically raw…. We complained and left

Extremely poor service and very unorganized. We never received the entree after waiting well over an hour and then we decided to leave. This Christmas Day brunch/lunch was a disaster and put a sour note to our delightful few days we spent in Philadelphia. They also forgot a main component of the appetizer selection which we had to remind them of before it was delivered.

Bonjour Greg, We are sorry to hear about your disappointing experience yesterday. It's clear we fell very short during your visit. We understand your frustration about the wait time and the mix-up with the appetizer order. I will be reaching out in private to see if there's anything I can do make up for this experience.

Always a wonderful experience with our granddaughters at Christmas. We appreciated the new tea pot, a new China and a wonderful service with big Well this year, the girls actually love the tea. They’re 10 they always love the scones and sweets. It’s the highlight of our Christmas season.
