I had an incredible experience at Daphne’s . The atmosphere was elegant yet inviting, and the staff were warm and attentive from the start. I couldn’t get enough of the tiger prawns—it was absolutely delicious. The conservatory seating was such a lovely touch, adding a relaxed but refined vibe to the evening. I’ll definitely be going back—it’s a fantastic spot for a special night out.

Wonderful afternoon tea but... I booked on open table and booked the 20% traditional afternoon tea experience however when the bill arrived they said this offer was not on and they’ve tried to contact open table and their manager has tried to change it also but cannot. Apart from that the gentleman that served us was excellent, the food was excellent also. Thank you to the Stage at the Londoner.
