Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in San Francisco Bay Area

Amazing, delicious food and the service is always first rate. Server was Pam and she was awesome. Consume was yummy, the popovers are to die for and the apple pie and NM chocolate chip cookie….oh my gosh! So good. The petrale sole was tasty too. The ambience is the best! Love the view and the ceiling!

Afternoon tea was amazing. Delicate petite sandwiches with caviar and delicious sweets. We ordered a half bottle of champagne and enjoyed the experience!

We enjoyed an absolutely beautiful Christmas dinner at Laurel Court. Highlights included the live Christmas jazz trio that so beautifully captured the mood of the families celebrating together, awesome dessert selection (wow!), and huge, artful charcuterie and vegetable displays. We loved the assortment of dim sum favorites, and the carving stations, along with yummy salads, breads, soups (lobster bisque!), and other side dishes. We appreciated the family-friendly menu as well, with the table of children's favorites, which were a big hit with our 5 year old and 1 year old. The staff were so friendly and helpful, and everything was first class. After our dinner, we visited the Fairmont Gingerbread House, and took in the gorgeous Christmas decor of the hotel. Altogether it was an excellent Christmas day, and we thank all the staff at the Fairmont who worked on the holiday to give us this magical experience. Thank you!

Our Christmas Day Brunch experience was fantastic. I have some food allergies so I had emailed The Post Room Team in advance and received a prompt, reassuring reply from the chef, Jose, who had clearly given my questions thoughtful and thorough consideration. On the day, I received personal service from Jose who was committed to avoiding issues with cross-contamination. All the food we ate was delicious and the dining room team could not have been more welcoming or accommodating. We were so well looked after, it was a faultless festive experience. We only went out for our Christmas meal this year because I had recent hand surgery and can’t cook much. However, our experience at The Post Room was so delightful, I am considering doing it again next year. Thank you to Jose and the whole team.

Ricardo was very welcoming and informative when we inquired about dinner. When we returned to dine, David was our server who was very knowledgeable and made some great suggestions. We ordered: Pumpkin Burrata Salad - delicious. Mom fell in love with the burrata Duck Soup - what yummy twist to a Chinese classic wonton noodle dish Burger - son thoroughly enjoyed Pork Shank - OMG! Star of the show. A must get! A great evening all around!
