My daughter (who is a new mom with a 5 week old baby) took
My daughter (who is a new mom with a 5 week old baby) took me to afternoon tea at Claridges for Mothers Day. The food was superb. We especially liked the ham sandwich and the Gruyère truffle (which was their special of the day). We each tried 2 different teas - all were excellent. The best part of this experience was the service. It was the best service we have ever experienced. Marius was our server. He spent time with us -not just telling us about the food but even the history of afternoon tea! Claridges is lucky to have a server that is charming, attentive and gracious and who provides excellent customer service. He helped make it an enjoyable Mother's Day for us. We even got a pot of mini daffodils on our way out for Mother's Day!!
Be the first to ReplyClaridges tea is wonderful.
Bright and elegant with live piano and/or violin. One would be hard pressed to find a better spot for tea. The staff is without compare and quite accommodating. Splurge and get the champagne with tea. This is not just tea, it's an event. The staff will accommodate food allergies. The sandwiches are always fresh, the scones always perfectly cooked, their jams are flavorful. Ask for tea jelly in addition to the raspberry and strawberry jams. Their desserts change at various times during the year. Meticulously crafted and always wonderful. Request to sit in the main room for the full effect or in the reading room for a quieter experience.

Visiting from the US and wanted to go out for traditional tea while in London and we were not disappointed. Staff were extremely friendly and professional. We arrived early and were seated immediately. The hostess explained everything very well since this was our first visit here and felt welcomed right away. The sandwiches were very tasty and surprisingly filling. The hardest thing was trying to decide what tea to get. They came by often to make sure our tea was filled and our plates filled with food. The desserts were not as sweet as desserts in the US but offered your tastebuds a variety of textures and flavors that sweets don't have in the states and was a nice treat. Will definitely come back the next time we come to London.
Be the first to ReplyGreat afternoon tea here! They have five kinds of
Great afternoon tea here! They have five kinds of sandwiches, among which I enjoyed the chicken one the most so I asked for some extra pieces. The sandwiches go well with the green tea!Then there are the scones and the sweets. The scones were pretty petite but were warm and delicious. The jam was really yummy but a little sweet, so it goes better with the plain one than the raisin. I asked for some milk to go with my Himalayas black tea. It accompanies the sweetness quite well. After the macaron I got full so I asked for the rest to go. The sweets are packed nicely.Excellent service! Attentive and polite. Really professional! The decorations are also fantastic.Worth the price and the fame.
Be the first to ReplyI was here recently for my first official afternoon tea
I was here recently for my first official afternoon tea ever, and wanted a London traditional tea experience. I did an extensive amount of research prior to visiting London on the different venues and the thing that sold me was Claridges was recommended for single guests who wanted to have tea. Since I was alone this was important to me. I found the service was excellent, my waiter was attentive but not overbearing or ignoring me. Having travelled alone all over the world I do appreciate when I'm not ignored for simply being a party of one. Bring a book to read or you can people watch. The piano music was nice to listen to also.The room was beautiful and elegant, in a way it was like stepping back in time with the art deco decor. The Chihuly was a beautiful centerpiece in the foyer. The food was wonderful, I loved the sandwiches especially the quiche they were serving that day. I had seconds on the quiche. The scones with the marco polo jelly was delicious. I couldn't finish the desserts, so they were kindly boxed up and I had them later. I especially like the chocolate tart. Try the cloud blend. Darjeeling is my favorite, the cloud blend is similar, very flavorful and something new to try if that is your tea palate.It is expensive, but I found it to be worth the experience, especially since I was dressed up to go to the Opera afterwards. With regards to cost, I factored this experience into my budget for the trip so you can always plan for this.

Tea at Claridge's is a must if you are a fan of afternoon tea. The room was elegant and the air was filled with music provided by the pianist. Our server was well informed about the selection of teas and offered helpful suggestions. Each serving of tea is prepared one at a time so that the tea doesn't become overly strong while sitting in the pot. The server would add hot water to the teapot for each pour. The sandwiches were all delicious and we were offered seconds of any that we wanted. Then came the scones; which paired perfectly with the clotted cream and Marco Polo jam. Rarely, if ever,do I not have enough room for dessert but after pots of tea, seconds of sandwiches, and two scones, I wasn't able to finish the desserts. Not to worry though, the desserts were packaged up to go and the manager insisted we have more scones to takeaway too.

My husband wasn't very keen on going to tea, but he was converted. Claridges is gorgeous-even the restrooms were grand. Service was impeccable, as was the cellist and pianist. We were helped to select two teas, which were replenished throughout our visit. Our server explained many tidbits about the teas. I had the "rare Chai" and a white lemongrass tea. Both were exquisite. The sandwich assortment was nice and we were asked if we wanted more. He brought another half dozen as "refills." I don't typically use much butter or jam, but tried it on my scones and they seemed to melt in my mouth. Anyone who knows me knows there's no such thing as "too many sweets" -- except there were! We couldn't finish everything, though we had to try bites of it all. Some of the flavors were intense (chocolate and passion fruit) but oh so good. As it was just past our anniversary, and a day after my birthday, we got little plates of extra desserts with messages and a candle. And a little box of fudge for each of us to take away. We were relaxed, treated royally, fed like little piglets, and pampered. Yes!
Be the first to ReplyLike most other high tea places in London, Claridge's is
Like most other high tea places in London, Claridge's is not worth the price. You dine here for the opportunity of feeling like a classy English noble. Tea, scones, and sandwiches should never cost this much. Just so you know what the experience is all about though, try it once, and then never again.// Traditional Afternoon Tea (£60)
Be the first to ReplyI am a huge afternoon tea fan and this was the best
I am a huge afternoon tea fan and this was the best experience I have had in London and the US. The hotel and tea room is absolutely gorgeous. The tea room has beautiful Art Deco style - very old world glamorous. There is live music (violin and piano) which is really lovely. Staff and service is top notch - true British hospitality. I had some dietary restrictions and they were very much accommodated. The staff always checked in on me but not in an obtrusive manner. The sandwiches were extremely tasty - the veggie ones were my favorites. You can ask for more once done. Scones were really great as well and came with Marco Polo tea jam which was not too sweet (other jams available upon request). The pastries were beautiful and tasty - my favorite was the chocolate hazelnut tarte and the apricot eclair. They box them up for you if you don't finish! People watching is also amazing - everyone is very well dressed and tasty a mix of tourists and locals. Highly recommend! Make sure to book way in advance - I think they open reservations 2-3 months in advance and weekends and Fridays fill up quickly.

irst visit to Claridges for the afternoon tea , really fancy inside with great service and interior , i enjoyed it
Be the first to ReplyI really can't believe that I didn't really been to that
I really can't believe that I didn't really been to that many amazing places in London. I made my stop here due to this place is the top one afternoon tea place in London. Yes it's really fancy inside with great service and interior etc. I ordered one with a glass of champagne which would cost you £70 with service charges. So I had tried couple different teas. They served several selections of sandwiches, scones and some pastry. They were good but was it worth for the price? It's a tough question. I could understand why other ppl give decent rating and I agree this was a cool place. If you are looking for a place that you could pretend you are an elegant and classic noble, this would be a one.
