While The Adria is not going to be front of mind when it comes to the top places for afternoon tea in London, for us it really shined. It is intimate, elegant and classy, but also modern and fuss-free. We enjoyed all the usual fare offered at an afternoon tea but done with a slight twist. Apart from the quality of the food and tea offerings, a special touch was the sparkling tea that we chose to have in place of a glass of champagne. And the service was excellent - personal, friendly and informative. Based on our experience we are considering staying at The Adria next time we are in London.
