It is hard to beat a perfectly presented Afternoon Tea. And it was perfect. We sat on the veranda on a cool September afternoon. Blankets were available if needed. It had rained, but the gardens were stunning in their deep green and bright colors. The tea is surprisingly filling starting with trifle, and followed with many one- and two-bite sandwiches, tiny quiche, sausage roll, the many beautiful little desserts, and a surprising scone (spiced with ginger). Service was quiet and efficient. (The only negative to being outside were some tenacious wasps who really wanted the jam and cream for our scones.) More

We came here for our honeymoon and had the absolute best experience! Our server, Colleen was fantastic. She was so knowledgeable, personable, and made us feel so special. The food was insane. This place is a must! Thank you for everything. More

My wife, daughter and a good friend celebrated an evening out together over good food and good wine. The service was top notch right from the reception, to our waitress and all the support staff. Very friendly and efficient. The food was delicious as was the wine and beer. We were probably quite loud. We laughed, ate, drank and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. What more can I say. More

The food was wonderful and the discussion about the wine pairings was fun and informative. We went to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary and it lived up to what we were hoping. More

Lovely setting for high tea! The food was excellent! When you first see the three-tiered tray, you might think that there isn’t a lot of food, but there is, and you fill up quickly! The tea, food, setting, and service was wonderful for our 5th anniversary! Would recommend the tea room as well as the gardens for locals OR tourists as a lovely afternoon outing. More
