   Cute place for tea but would not recommend for a meal. The entree that comes with the tea was lackluster and came out after the pastries (which seems odd to eat a savory entree after cakes and scones). I think this would be much more enjoyable just with the tea sandwiches mid day. We also got stuck at a table that was literally in the middle of the restaurant where everyone walked by and we were right next to the tables beside and behind us. The other tables seemed much more private and comfortable.

   Loved tea at Lady Camellia! Food was fresh and tasty and was more than anyone could eat so we all got to take home pretty boxes with leftover treats. Great tea selection, lovely china, pretty view, great service, and absolutely amazing scones. Arrive early to try to find on-street parking, but if non is available there is a $15 lot between the tearoom and the river. A bit pricey for parking but worth the convenience.

   They were “out” of several items but never bothered to tell us beforehand we ordered. Also, had to flag down someone to place our order. Food is good but tea selection could use some refresh or innovation

   Once again Lady Camellia’s did not disappoint! It was my third visit, but the first for my friend. She thoroughly enjoyed the Holiday Tea and can’t wait to bring her daughter for tea. The service was excellent and everyone was charming. The food was exceptional as always. It is the ideal spot for a lovely tea!

   Great first visit to Lady Camellia! The selections of tea was great, definitely something for everyone. There were many food options to choose from and each of us could choose the tea service we wanted. The food was delicious, cooked/baked well and generous servings. The service was great, everyone friendly and helpful. We look forward to returning!

   I love afternoon tea, so I always enjoy coming here for a quiet tea and English pie. The chicken and leek English pie is delicious and perfect for a cold winter day. Prices are a little steep, but it’s about the experience. There are several options for tea and food pairings, and a long list of tea selections. Something for everyone.

   The tea experience was terrific; lovely setting and the service was great. Loved the different choices of tea services. The sandwiches were delicious and filling. However it’s a very tight space when you enter where you have to wait to be seated. Felt we were in the way of the servers and an even smaller space to wait for the restrooms. Will return.

   Great experience but the staff was a little overwhelmed with back to back reservations. They handled it well and it was a nice experience. We’ll be back.
