The Signet Library, Parliament Square, Edinburgh EH1 1RF, United Kingdom
Boye1The most luxurious afternoon tea restaurant in Edinburgh. I ordered the set menu for three people, which had a lot of things. The British really know how to enjoy themselves. The cake was a little sweet and the English black tea tasted great.

A high-end afternoon tea restaurant. The environment inside feels like the British Library. It is so elegant. The snacks inside are very good. I like the macarons. Also, the British Earl Grey tea is first-class.
You read that right, this restaurant is called The Colonnades, it is located in the library, and they say they want to make the best afternoon tea in Edinburgh. The service must be given 5 stars. They welcome you in, hang up your coat, introduce the restaurant, and choose the afternoon tea set. The waiter also said that we two girls can order one set, and they can give us an extra set of tea cups. Then they will serve the salty and sweet flavors separately. They will come over at the right time to ask if you need anything, and they even pack up very carefully... I think I will become a shill if I continue to talk, haha
The color of the ingredients is very good, the color is bright red, the taste is strong but not greasy, it is a very authentic store
I have tested a lot of those 'afternoon tea' experiences in Scotland and this one was, by far, the absolute best one from all points of view.
