We had a great time having high tea at the Mount Nelson. Craig was so knowledgeable about all of the different teas of which they had a huge selection, and Thuli, our waitress, was excellent! She was very attentive and sweet. The food was also exceptional - you definitely won’t leave hungry! Absolutely worth the visit.
