   Over all it was nice. We had high Tea and each little treats were good. I wish we could state things we dislike(out of dietary requirements) as I’m a pescatarian and the replacement food involved cucumber which I hate, so I left few items uneaten. Unfortunately cleanliness could’ve been improved. Table had crumbs on it when we arrived. Plus few of the cutlery also had something stuck on them. Nothing major but things I notice at the restaurants. Customer service was ok. One girl was super friendly and lovely. But the other one was very poor. She hardly said hi or smiled. She brought over the first plate of scones etc but she literally plonked it on our table without a word and walked off. Over all, for $80, I think I won’t be back for the second time.

   We had High Tea. Great value for money. Selection and taste superb. Definitely include the champagne. We will be back. Saw food from main menu being served to other customers - which looked equally as good. Staff were lovely.

   Overall the experience was okay, however wouldn’t necessary choose this location above other high teas I have been to. We had provided dietary requirements prior to the visit, however when we arrived and eventually spoke to a waiter to confirm requirements it took about half an hour to still receive our food. One requirement included being GF and pregnancy safe, and the waiter mentioned that outloud however noting how sensitive a pregnancy could be, this had the chance to potentially ruin a pregnancy announcement or news that wasnt ready to be shared yet, and took that away from the person. The gluten free bread was extremely dry. The warm fresh based scones were delicious as were all the sweet selections. We were only offered drinks about 15mins after being seated, and despite being unlimited tea and coffee, we were never offered a refill or top up. Overall, if I went to a cafe and bought some sweet things and a coffee it wouldn’t cost $80, so unfortunately, I didn’t see the value for money here.

   While I’d booked for 11am, it was such a pleasure being at Belle that my friend and I stayed till 2:30pm! The decor is divine and the staff were superb. There was no pressure on us to move along or purchase huge amounts of food. Everyone was so pleasant and welcoming. The food we did have was perfect as it was beautifully presented in just the right amount. Coffee was made just the way I like it. Definitely my kind of venue ❤️🙏💜
