Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Kensington

My friends and I really enjoyed the delicious foods and the tea drinks, love the flowers decor it was very pleasant and over all we had so much fun!

FABULOUS! We did not know what to expect from Julia’s, but we were excited to be in such an historical setting. We got to dinner early (after the Cal game), so we had drinks in their bar, which is adjacent to the restaurant. What a highlight-drinks were spectacular and old school while still being hip and cool. This is a great place for all ages in a stunning location. You really feel a part of the local history. Dinner—OUTSTANDING. All of our orders were different and really a fulfilling experience. The beauty of the building and its facilities makes this space unique, but really the team there, from the bartenders, to the host to the serving staff in the restaurant, are so professional and focused on hospitality—-something that is harder and harder to experience. We will be making this a regular part of our visits to Berkeley.

everything was as it should be, and as expected. the physical space is amazing - it must have cost several fortunes to create it. the spiral staircase with bronze totem is a thing to marvel at. one odd thing: one of our waiters asked us several times, 'is everything treating you ok?' or, 'how is everything treating you?' funny that we should remember that, but it is an odd question to get from a waiter. it's neither good nor back, just odd. we would not hesitate to return.

Attending the festive holiday tea at the Claremont Club & Spa in the Lobby Lounge was an absolute delight! The ambiance was breathtaking, with elegant holiday decor that made everything feel so magical and welcoming. The tea setup was flawless, with every detail carefully considered, creating a warm and luxurious experience from start to finish. The service was truly world-class – attentive, friendly, and gracious. They even offered complimentary champagne, which added a special touch to the whole experience. Each tea and treat was delicious, with a perfect balance of traditional holiday flavors and unique twists. This holiday tea at the Claremont is a must-try for anyone looking to celebrate the season in style

Fantastic buffett with great variety and love the new omelette bar. Gorgeous room with attentive service.
