    Good for an experience but seriously for the price It wasn't for me, the service I found too Slow apart from the wait we had at the door for a booked time. People that came in after us were also served before. The food was ok, the hot items for high tea weren't Inspiring, sandwiches were good, the savory were mediocre, the desserts were ok but sponge cake one was dry

    Spectacular as always. Only drawback is that they brew all teas at the same temperature. I ordered a Gyokuro and it’s best to be brewed at like warm temperature for example otherwise it defeats the purpose of drinking Gyokuro as it ends up tasting like sencha.

    The tea service was excellent. More than plenty of food. Pretty and delicious. My server was wearing a very strong perfume which took away from the experience. It is not appetizing to smell sweet perfume or any perfume when you are having a meal. I had to leave as soon as possible as the smell started to impact my wellness. Highly recommend all restaurants ask their staff not to wear scents.

    I have just come from an afternoon tea in the Gallery and I am writing to confirm my disappointment in the quality of the food. I raised my disappointment with Dylan, who was the lovely server at our table, and he asked me to put my comments in working to you. In summary, the sandwiches were average. The ham was lovely but the three others and the two sort of amuse bouche were tasteless and quite stodgy. Also stodgy was one of the cakes with the pastry on another being hard and inedible. Considering I paid £240 for me and my friend for this, to have ended up leaving about half of it as it was tasteless was really bad. And what made it worse? Nothing was removed from my bill! I still had to pay the full amount. In summary, you are trading a bit in your name and excellent service; the tea itself is not at the standard Savoy should be setting for itself.

    Afternoon tea at the Savoy. Well you can’t knock the food. The sandwiches and cakes were spot on and the glass of champagne(which you pay extra for)was delicious. Staff obviously are very friendly and polite. Value for money probably not, but it was a one off experience for myself and the wife so we thought what the heck.

    For a 5* hotel I was pretty disappointed at the quality of the food and the portion sizes. I have been to afternoon tea before at The Shard and other high end hotels and I found this to be the least value for money. Overall a pretty underwhelming visit and can’t say I’ll be returning.

    Even the sandwiches tasted amazing!! Very attentive service. The service charge was steep, about £30, but overall a very special treat for a Saturday afternoon
