We were recommended to the ‘can’t miss’ afternoon tea at the Mount Nelson by family that had previously visited. It lived up to all expectation and more. Thuli, who looked after us was so delightful and full of charm. This is a ‘must do’ when visiting Cape Town.

We had the most wonderful experience during Afternoon Tea today. The service by the lovely Thyli was truly exceptional and the whole experience was even better than expected. The food, the tea, the cakes, the live music and especially the atmosphere will make us come back again very soon. Thank you so much!
