I’ve had tea in lots of places around London. This was ok. The whole point of the restaurant is the view and we were sat at a table that didn’t have the view. We asked to move but were not accommodated. The sandwiches and cakes were good. The service was lovely. Overall not worth the price.

Have had multiple afternoon teas at multiple locations but this must rate as one of the best. Not the cheapest but great value for money. The view is simply breathtaking over the city and we had the perfect weather. The view was complimented with amazing food and the service was impeccable, extremely attentive and explained each dish. Had an amazing afternoon would recommend this experience to anyone.

We had a lovely time. The staff made us welcome although we had to wait for the table. Gave us a window table so views were great. Sandwiches and scones were lovely. Cakes a bit too pretentious. Personally don’t like black pepper in my cake. Drinks were slow. Staff did make a fuss of my husband for his birthday with a handwritten card and truffles. Overall a good experience but wouldn’t repeat. But in all a treat and some great pics if London.

I have heard this is one of the top places for afternoon tea on multiple YouTube videos and the reason I chose Ting was because of the valentine's day menu. The Shard was decorated in the theme from the moment I entered up to the 35th where Ting is located. The selection of tea was amazing and all had a distinct taste. The dessert was beautiful and creatively designed. The toffee pudding rose had dew drops that were stripe and the sesame dessert looked like it had a little Sunday hat. My favorite dessert was the blueberry, also with a hat. I also appreciate the little birthday message! It was wonderful to take my time and enjoy the experience with a beautiful view. My server, Ana was really great. I would highly recommend this.

Really beautiful place with great views, however the snacks/deserts were not great and we did not think the experience was worth the hefty price of $250.

This place was suggested by a friend and it did not disappoint. From the lobby, to the waiting area to the table. We were lucky enough to be seated at a window. All of the food at the afternoon tea was exceptional. Our waiter Diego did an excellent job of recommending champagne and tea. The price was well worth the money, 10/10 recommend.
