A pre theatre afternoon tea of the highest level. From the moment of arrival the service team are exceptional with the level of welcome and genuine interest about our day - Matthew our waiter was excellent at explaining the order of service and the menu and giving a brief history of the building. We visited with our 2 children (7&9) and often afternoon tea can be either too stuffy or too gimicy for children to embrace but I have to say every aspect of the service made the kids feel very special - Matthew and the hostess(apologies I forgot her name ) made the effort to chat to the children directly and tell them some fun facts. Special mention to the elegance of the champagne and tea service . We loved the tea infused at the table and the infusion time is a great addition. The afternoon tea itself started with the savoury plate and often with so many hotels the savoury is an afterthought but here every element has been beautifully constructed. No pretentious flavours that don’t work just well executed sandwiches packed with flavour on soft fresh bread - the salmon sandwich was so spot on the whole table asked for refill even the children. The sandwiches selection of 5 is very generous especially considering it is accompanied with a fresh pea and asparagus tartlet. Next was the pastries and scones - warm soft scones with jam and clotted cream led to Matthew discussing with the children if to lather them the Cornish or Devonshire way which they took great pleasure in experimenting to find there own preference. The pastries are perfect works of art that are both beautiful to look at but also packed with well balanced flavours that are not overly sweet but also just the right size to try all and not be overloaded. Churchills chocolate pocket watch is a great touch and adds a nice sweet finish to the afternoon. Overall a tea of the highest level that is a credit to those that created it and a refreshing addition when so many places seem to have spoilt the offering by not paying attention to the full order of service and every product being offered
