Had a great experience with my friends. Thuli was a lovely waitress, and served us well. Absolute value for money with countless teas and beverages to choose from. The four-courses offered were delicious, and more than enough to satisfy us.

I'm sure this is the general opinion. But after being to a few high teas, I can again say this with surety... The best high tea youll ver experience. The welcome the service the variety and quality is top tier... Three tier times two to be exact. With a buffet cake table if you have to explore more.

The best high tea in Cape Town without a doubt. Go with an empty tummy. Thuli was a wonderful waitress and made our experience really amazing.

Fabulous afternoon tea sat on terrace overlooking the beautiful garden. A delightful gastronomic experience with at least 14 different food options to try. Our waitress Thuli was fabulous and looked after us very well. We leave with a doggie bag in tow! Highly recommended and much better value than its counterparts in the UK!
