    An amazing experience we had hoped for. The ambiance was beautiful and we had the best server Daniel. We are visiting from California and has been the highlight of our trip

    We loved our afternoon tea! We’re both a little fussy and the staff always cater for our needs (swapping sandwiches to ones we prefer with no issues). The new layout is lovely, my only concern is the tables are not as spacious as they were previously and the gap between tables isn’t too big, it would be nice to have a little more room as previously (before renovations) I believe the table size and space around was one of the best things about the gallery. We will always re visit though as it is still such a good experience.

    We have been going to the savoy for the last 10 years, formerly known the Thames foyer around May time for our wedding anniversary. It has now been rebranded to the gallery. The overall look is nice as we weren’t able to go in May this we booked in for December. The menu was more festive based on the time of year and if I’m honest I didn’t really enjoy any of the cakes compared to previous but I’m not sure if this is given it the festive season. Sandwiches and teas were perfect as usual. The scones normally come wrapped in a cloth to keep them warm that had changed this year and so went cold. The seating arrangement was okay but I noted there is less two spaces so there’s less privacy and due to demand again perhaps time of year it was busier which impacted the service. Overall it was nice but I miss the old service, the privacy and set up and cakes menu. We loved the sandwiches and teas so for that I will still continue to go annually in the hope the cakes may return to its former menu. Oh and the thing I disliked the most was the fact there was a bar there. It took away the ambiance of afternoon tea and felt more commercialized. I understand it’s for the restaurant which is in the same location post afternoon tea.
