    Wonderful service, the best afternoon tea! Everything so fresh, delicious and carefully presented. 4 generations at the tea table and all had a marvellous time. Can't wait for the Seasons diamond afternoon tea.

    We absolutely love this quirky and quaint restaurant/bar/themed, venue. It's not cheap but not over priced either, the quality of food is good, the ambience is excellent ,service is always good. I have been to cheaper cream teas,but I think you get what you pay for when it comes to a cream tea. Definitely recommend it, there's something about this restaurant that works

    An amazing experience! The food was gorgeous and the decor was insane! What a fabulous way to begin the festive celebrations. The Sugar Plum Fairy would have approved! Best food was the Stilton and Cranberry muffin followed by the Raspberry Ripple mousse. No way we were going to have room for it all but the carry home box was exquisite in itself. Thank you for a truly unforgettable afternoon. We will be back for the Regency in January!
