Arrived at 3:00 PM for New Year’s eve special tea and we were not disappointed. Friendly staff and hostess sat us right away and we were doted on for the entire service. We were offered a nice selection of teas that were all served professionally in the English fashion. Teas were accompanied by the customary sandwiches, scones and pastries and were more than satisfactory. We were served champagne but were charged for additional glasses which seemed a little cheesy especially on New Year’s eve and hefty overall prices. This was my only complaint and we had a wonderful time in an incredibly beautiful setting.

Very attentive waitstaff makes Dr a good afternoon tea in the Mayfair district. The accommodations were quite regal and fitting of an afternoon tea. It was not busy nor pretentious and do highly recommend

I was surprised with afternoon tea here for my significant birthday from my sisters. The location in the heart of London is fantastic for a lovely decedent treat. The hotel is a hidden gem. The staff were polite and unobtrusive, but did check on us regularly to ask if we wanted replacements for empty plates and bottomless loose leaf, fruit or flowering tea. The food was very tasty, with different flavoured bread, some soft and fresh scones with fresh made jam and cream. The highlight was of course the pastries and chocolate, all sweetshop inspired mini cakes and pastries. The peanut butter cup and cherry cheesecake are delicious. The staff sang happy birthday with a small cupcake. A complimentary small bag of pick and mix is offered at the end. Thoroughly enjoyable.

I regret that despite ordering two afternoon tea sets costing over £170, we were only given one set to share, with portions of butter, jam, and pastries intended for a single person. Meanwhile, the neighboring table received two full sets for the same price. That said, I appreciate the staff’s kindness and the complimentary sweets offered at the end. Both the sandwiches and pastries were average except one sandwich. Given the price, there are far better options available elsewhere.

Excellent and attentive service from all staff from the doorman to the waiters. The scones, cakes and sandwiches were all delicious (highly recommend the smoked salmon on beetroot bread and chicken sandwiches encased in an almond paste on the outside). There was a wide selection of teas (including fruit infusions for children). Very child friendly. Not cheap but well worth it for a special treat. Highly recommend.
