Exquisite afternoon tea. Delicious food and tea. Impeccable service by our server Lulu and Craig the tea sommelier. Live piano music in a beautiful room with lovely china. It is a lot of food. Two tiers of sandwiches, 2 mini scones, 6 small desserts AND a table of cakes. AND they offer seconds of everything and boxes to take home. Complimentary sparkling wine. Wonderful experience in a beautiful historic hotel. Don’t miss this experience,

We had such a lovely time at our afternoon tea. The rooms are beautifully decorated, the food was delicious, and the teas were brewed perfectly. We appreciated the outstanding service by Lulu and Craig’s knowledge of the teas! The live piano music added the perfect touch. Thank you for a fantastic experience!

We stopped by for an afternoon high tea to celebrate my birthday. What a lovely experience. Think Bridgerton meets that African finesse. Very friendly and welcoming team. I even got serenaded by piano to wish me a very happy birthday. The selection of teas were amazing, and the food even more delicious. Thank you to Zodwa for being so accommodating.
