Afternoon Tea at The Montague on The Gardens

Was our first afternoon tea in London and while reading uther reviews we were a little worried as some folks seemed to have mixed experiences. However our experience was perfect. The service and ambience were great and the tea and food were amazing. So very glad this was our first afternoon tea as it a memory we will carry for ever

Gorgeous hotel - Christmas decorations are lovely. Service for the tea was fantastic and because we were one of the last groups in, we were even given another entire tea for two to takeaway. Very generous portions also. Price is quite high but kept it down by sticking to tea (unlimited tea also). Would absolutely go back for a special occasion. 10/10

Food, service, and the excellent setting all contributed to a memorable occasion. The servings are generous, so sharing is not a bad idea.

We had a really lovely afternoon. The hotel itself is a lovely place, and so is the the atrium where we ate. The staff were attentive and friendly and the tea, scones and cakes were all top notch. Furthermore, the price in comparison to some of the other teas offered in London is far more reasonable than some big names. Well worth a visit.

I’m really baffled by some of the low reviews for this. It’s one of the best afternoon teas I’ve had and I’ve had A LOT of high quality London ones. Upon arrival the young lady that greeted us was smiley, polite and friendly offering us a choice of seating. She obviously likes her job, nice to experience. There was a great choice of vegetarian savory and 6 little desserts including a lovely refreshing sorbet. They offered complete refills on the food and you could try several different teas,The table was in a conservatory style room, airy that looked out onto the garden. There was a lower screen on windows so would have been lovely to see the garden when seated.My daughter and I used our fork yums and so what we paid was very little but it was well worth the price they are charging. I will definitely return hopefully this summer. Truly enjoyable. All, staff were attentive and pleasant. Door was opened for us when we left by pleasant lady wishing us a nice day. I truly recommend this place. What’s to complain about???
