Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Bankside

I was a little bit disappointed as I came last year with work colleagues and there were 2 massive Christmas trees outside the entrance and carol singers as you walked in. This year were a couple of bare branches with a few bows on and no carol singers. I wanted to bring my family as I had such a lovely time last year but as I said it was a little different this year. My family still enjoyed the experience as they had never been before so had nothing to compare it to. I would still go again.

Afternoon tea at the savoy is a lovely! We had come up from Eastbourne and just been to the Van Gogh exhibition at the National Gallery and then walked round to the savoy. We have been a couple of times, and really enjoy it. It is know in the newly refurbished room with very comfy chairs...... important for tea i think. Er added a glass of champagne each before we started which as they have a good selection to choose from was well worth it. One of the gueast was gluten free and there selection was as lovely as the others. There was no feeling that you have to finish then leave which happens in some other afternon teas, we have tried a few, and we keeping coming back to the savoy. Te staff where lovely, inarticular the man who explained all abut the ball room down stairs, whichn we went tom see. i loved thhe pictures of Guests around the htel, and particuarily liked the pictures on the wall of the ballet dancers. The addition of the bar in the room works very well.

We went for an afternoon tea today to celebrate 20 years of marriage. We had a lovely table next to the window with a fantastic view of St Paul's and the Thames. The food was delicious and the staff very friendly. There was a lovely festive atmosphere with pretty decorations. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend it's value for money too in comparison with other places in London. Thank you 😊

Staff were brilliant service was fast. Food was merely ok. Nothing earth shattering. Brilliant ambiance for a hotel bar really. Unexpected! We would return

Good location, friendly staff and plenty of choice at reasonable prices.
