   Stunning place, friendly staff and overall aesthetic is really nice. No halal options but vegetarian options were nice enough. It falls a little short on the food as the sandwiches were very dry and the non alcoholic cocktails were terrible. However, the scones and sweet treats were nice and overall quite filling.. I like that they give you a teapot to refill your own tea throughout.

   Myself and two friends enjoyed our afternoon tea on the Sunborn Yacht Hotel. The service was very good and the staff were all very attentive. The food served was really good and plentiful. We loved the surroundings and views across the Royal Dock was amazing. Very good value for money. Great location and easy to get to.

   Our reservation was made at the hotel on the 16th December 2024, nearly 3 months prior to the visit. At the time the Duty Manager of the restaurant took details of some special items we requested to celebrate an Eightieth Birthday and a separate Wedding Anniversary; the booking was for 4 people at 3.00pm on the 6th March 2025. When we arrived on the day we checked to see that they had details of the special items which we had previously requested, and the Duty Manager confirmed all was in place. However, despite our best efforts all was in vain, nothing was organised or forthcoming. Very disappointing! Afternoon Tea was OK but nothing special or memorable for a special occasion. General waiter service was way below par and again very disappointing, how many times do you need to request water? My wife asked three times and nothing ever appeared. Love the location and the general ambience but the overall experience did not support the costs. We have previously stayed on the sister ship in Gibraltar with far better results, in fact it was our Gibraltar experience that led us to the London location. Only goes to prove that replicating things is not as easy as it may seem. We had made a special journey of some distance and would advice that unless you live locally or have to be in that area don’t waste your money.

   The venue was very nice. The service left a lot to be desired. The food and drinks were definitely not worth £40 per person.

    Fabulous location and beautiful yacht. All staff incredibly polite and attentive. Food excellent sandwiches, scones and cakes. Bottomless coffee and tea. Our Gluten free request was fulfilled and a good selection of food. Plenty of time to spend with family and friends, never felt like we were being rushed to leave. We were able to have a drink in the bar before and after our tea. The outside deck was unavailable to sit due to the weather which was understandable. Would definitely recommend and would return.
