    The food was good overall. The bread used for the sandwiches didn’t pair well with the fillings. Greeter/Manager? wasn’t overly friendly or welcoming as a first impression. At the end of the meal we were offered one box to take home our leftovers for a table of three, then two boxes, and then we had to ask for a third, which was a bit odd. Also, bill was provided altogether instead of separately which is inconvenient when you are separate diners. Parking is also quite pricey around the area.

    We had a wonderful afternoon tea. The service and food was outstanding. They had a gluten-free option that was actually very tasty and you didn’t notice it was gluten-free. We were told all gluten-free was made on site. It felt like an indulgence but it was so worth it. We did the traditional tea and there was so much food and the tea was delicious

    Our server was friendly and the decor was lovely. I scored ambience a little lower just because the tables were too close together so there wasn’t much privacy. The baked goods were delicious, but the sandwiches weren’t great. It seemed like they were made the night before so the bread was quite dry. I’d say overall it’s not worth the price.

    Our server Shannon gets 5/5 stars, but getting a table even with a reservation wasn't too pleasant. No one greeted us for nearly ten minutes while we stood there and the hostess shortly asked if we had a reservation as if we didn't. Overal the experience and food was great, but didn't appreciate the shortness of the host with us at the beginning.

    Getting to experience Traditional Afternoon Tea was really wonderful. Everyone was so kind and accommodating. They made my birthday tea very special with a macaron and candle. I highly recommend, especially for spending time with your mother & grandmother. The aesthetic is stunning as well.

    Our server Victoria, was exceptional! We were celebrating a birthday and she took some photos for us, and put a birthday candle in one of the desserts! We wanted to take our time and stretch out our tea time so Victoria was very good at bringing out our cheese/fruit plates, cocktails, tea, and sweet/savory tray of goodies. She explained each item which is very helpful. I thought the price was very reasonable, everything was absolutely delicious, generous serving size (we took several goodies home), and the service was outstanding!

    Service was lovely. Nice pace, very attentive and pleasant. Tea selections were very good and perfectly steeped. They could swap out the guacamole toast for something else like egg salad as it was overly spiced and challenging to eat but the salmon, cucumber sandwiches were very good as was the Turkey/cheese on croissant. All of the sweets were high quality including the scones.

    Excellent time for my cousin’s birthday. Samantha was a terrific server. They still have the hotter than heck avocado toast - so I opted out on that. It would be delicious if it was mild for most people to enjoy. Creme for the scones had candied ginger in it?? Not a fan. The Creme should be served neutral without added ingredients. Nice selection of new sweets served. Regardless of my two small issues - it was a great afternoon tea

    Service was great but food was mediocre and not worth the price. We were told the scones were warmed but they were brought to us cool. The selection of eats for the traditional combo was not what I would expect for a true high tea experience. Not worth the price.

    We enjoyed our trip to the Prince of Wales for Afternoon Tea! The room was quite loud, so at times it was difficult to talk, and we were seated in a tiny little corner of the room near the emergency exit, which was wasn’t best location. However the delicious food and tea makes it worth it, nothing beats Sloane tea and the delicious tea sandwiches, scones and desserts all freshly made.

    Food and staff amazing as always. Mary and Shannon took great care of us, they are wonderful. The food and beverage manager was so kind, very nice man. The complimentary mimosas knocked my socks off! Top notch Valentines tea service. My only complaint as a local is the increase in the price, I hadn’t been in several months and it just keeps going up. Bring back the tea for two months!!!

    Last time we go there for Valentine's Day. When I made my reservation, I asked not to be seated by the windows but in a quiet corner. We were seated by an exterior door and it was close quarters to other tables. They did move us, after I said we would leave. Even by the fireplace, my wife and I found it cold and breezy. Service was okay but looked to be only 1 main server.
