I'm afraid we were a little disappointed with our afternoon tea, the chai was just milk with a hint of tea. Some of the food was ok but the sandwiches were not so good, especially the fish finger sandwiches, unfortunately the fish was over done and not edible so we just left it. Maybe I should I have mentioned it to the staff and complained but I didn't want to spoil my mum's 75th birthday. On the positive side, the restaurant was very nice and relaxing and the staff were friendly too. I don't think we'll be going back anytime soon. It's a shame as I would have expected a higher standard of food.
***This review has now been updated with a much less glowing review for a repeat visit on 31 Dec 2023.*** Absolutely fantastic afternoon tea. So many tasty treats we struggled to eat them all ….. but we prepared ourselves by skipping lunch and visiting late afternoon, so just about managed to clear the plates. Excellent choice of leaf tea to accompany ranging from traditional breakfast and earl grey to red berries. The staff were attentive without being intrusive and made us feel nothing was a trouble. Totally going again. Special mention for the menu as one of our group has a severe nut allergy- no nuts in the treats and they showed us the matrix so we could see the ingredients etc. A little touch that was reassuring. Thank you Team Grand Pacific @ The Queens.
Had a wonderfull time at grand pacific for afternoon tea with my good friend who came from london. Lovely food . Waitress very accomadating n polite. Lovely surroundings ..gave 4 stars because of one thing . We ordered two afternoon tea special s n had 80% of sweet dish left over..so wanted to take home. But were told we couldnt because of natashas law.. i was very bemused . We have had lots of high end afternoon teas n never heard of this before anywhere in london..or york or harrogate. My husband who works in this line n said ruling is with pre SEALED food needs to be labelled properly. Not food which is left over...so would like a more precise answer. In this day of price hikes everywhere its such a waste.....otherwise lovely day...
Lovely afternoon tea. Highly recommended.
