    The atmosphere is amazing, the Palm Court looks amazing and the service was excellent. Other than than, the food was ok, nothing special as we imagined. It took quite some time to get our drinks and the place wasn’t even half full. Would we visit again? Yes, but only for a drink at the bar.

    I went there for evening service which had a prix fixe menu. The mini sandwiches and sweets were ok nothing special just average food and definitely you don’t get the value nor the quantity for the money you pay. They did not serve tea which was disappointing as not all people drink alcohol plus tea goes well with the menu they are offering (sandwiches and sweets).

    On Jan 1st we couldn’t chose from la carte, there was a set menu for 95$, a kind of afternoon tea! But I did not like the food! Savoury pieces were better than sweets, but I did not find a good quality overall.

    Food was ok, nothing was truly fantastic! Service and Christmas decor was beautiful. Drink for $30 was sub par, kids pizza tasted like a frozen pizza. Mini slider was delicious. Would do once for the experience but there’s likely much better options out there.

    Overpriced for the quality and quantity of afternoon tea. We have travelled the world and had afternoon tea at places like Claridges, The Savoy and The Goring. This does not even come close to the service, quality or quantities. We felt rushed through, they did not recognise that it was a birthday booking, no one spoke through the menu and it costs us near to $1k for 4 of us. Really would not recommend to anyone

    This was a bucket list item to attend tea at Tbe Plaza with my daughters-in-law and my granddaughter. The experience exceeded my expectations.
