    I’ll start with the positives - the room was stunning and the live piano a lovely touch. Staff were pleasant (although service was a little slow). The food, however, was the most disappointing afternoon tea I’ve ever experienced. The bread on the sandwiches was stale and the chicken and truffled egg sandwiches were inedible - I had shell in my first bite of the egg sandwich! The salmon filling was passable, and the tiny little tart was nice. The only edible sweet treat was the chocolate one. For one of the most expensive afternoon teas in London, this was a huge disappointment!

    Unfortunately we did not have a great experience. The service was almost non existent - we had to ask for everything- from a cup missing to having our tea. We had to wait 30 minutes for a second plate of sandwiches. The food was ok, nothing exceptional. We could not taste the herbs in the cucumber sandwiches, the horseradish in the salmon. The bread was bland and certainly didn’t feel home baked - the texture of the cakes were the same - a mousse with a small filling. The Bridgeton tea was good but the others were weak. For £98 /pp plus service I was expecting a much better experience from the Lanesborough ; I’ve had much better in 3 stars hotels -

    Afternoon tea at the Lanesborough was delightful. From the welcome and excellent service to the fabulous cocktail and delicious treats you cannot go wrong. This was our first visit as a celebration but we will definitely be back again … soon I hope.

    Overpriced and not the service i expected. We went there for an afternoon tea. The food was good but the service obligatory and at no part really helpfull. when we left i forgot my umbrella at the cloackroom and even though we were the only customers at the time, the umbrella was put aside and the moment i noties and ran back it was put aside and no where found. This experience feels like an example for the whole afternoon. There is service but no one that really cared and helps you with the intention to do something extra. There are Lots of teas but no one offers to try another flavour or makes an recommandation. Not something that made the occasion special, even while our daugher was celebrating her birthday there with me.

    What an absolute delight it was to have afternoon tea at the Lanesborough this afternoon. Every member of staff from the cheerful doorman to our waiting staff were welcoming, helpful and friendly. We had time to have a refreshing sit down in the Withdrawing Room where we were served drinks before our afternoon tea experience. The rooms are beautiful, furniture sumptuous and comfortable and the music was at a nice level in the background so that we could enjoy it but also enjoy our conversation. The afternoon tea was absolutely delicious with refills of sandwiches. Warm, fresh scones and beautiful, tasty pastries. Traditional and more exotic tea selections to choose from and plenty of refreshing of the teapots. An absolutely wonderful experience with lovely friends making fabulous memories. I would highly recommend this experience as one of the most wonderful I’ve had in London for a long time.

    We were really excited to take my mother and mother in law to celebrate their birthday and have the Bridgerton afternoon tea. Unfortunately it was a disappointment. The service was slow to bring out our teas or fill up our water. The Bridgerton decorations were poor for what I thought would be a special experience. The food was average and nothing was particularly standout. All in all it was a relatively disappointing afternoon particularly for the price and what the hotel’s standards should be. The person that somewhat saved the entire afternoon was the incredible pianist, who was phenomenal.

    From the moment you get to the door the service is impeccable. Nothing was too much trouble. Afternoon tea prices in 5 star London hotels is expensive, you are paying for a whole experience. The setting in the hotel is beautiful, with live piano music throughout the afternoon tea. The service was of high standard throughout. Offer of additional sandwiches and trying different teas. Also a birthday chocolate. Take home box offered for what you don’t manage to eat. So in summary, lovely afternoon tea set in luxury surroundings, would recommend the experience (remember you aren’t just paying for the tea itself!).

    I'm celiac so to have a gluten free option for high tea is so exciting, but the Afternoon Tea at The Lanesborough is exceptional! I have now gone twice and it will definitely not be the last.
