    Nice garden surroundings; private dining within the dome which we had to ourselves. Food was tasty. One downside was having to wait approximately 30 minutes after our arrival time for the afternoon tea (food items) to be served - it would be better if you were brought to your dome & the food was already on the table.

    It was just first time here with a friend. It was wonderful. Customer service was great the minute we walked in with a friendly face and a smile. Food was delicious scones warm and everything cooked perfectly. Service at the table was great. There was no rush to leave and very reasonable priced specially being in South Kensington. Would definitely return.

    Minutes away from Gloucester Road tube station, this little lace is ideally located and nicely different.something of a novel dining experience. Food is good - cakes a bit samey and very sweet. Excellent service - professional yet personable and highly engaging.
