Beautiful place to indulge in formal afternoon tea. Wonderful experience for a young girl since they can get the Eloise tea. Very expensive but worth it as a special treat during the xmas holiday

I've been to Lady Mendl's many times over the years (pre-Covid). I've always enjoyed it. Today seemed noisier than in the past. Is it more crowded? While I liked most sandwiches, I found the avo-hummus and the pumpernickel/cream cheese less interesting. I didn't sample all the teas; I enjoyed the English Breakfast and Earl Grey, less so the coconut. The crepe dessert was delicious!
