Verified Reviews of Afternoon Tea Venues near Tower Bridge
The place is perfect for a small/medium group, they provide toilet, air conditioning or heater, there is a small kitchen upstairs which everyone can use, there are a couple of chairs as well, it will be amazing if they provide portable tables and more chairs.
I liked the space it has good sized mirrors across the wall and also upped with chairs, speakers and more.
The receptionist / booking lady was very pleasant and gave an exceptional service. Facilities and room were also great, as was the location.
The staff were very friendly and welcoming, the drinks were great, and all my questions were answered very promptly in the run up to the party. I had a great night.
Everything was great about this night, they personalised our drink menu, both waitresses were very nice and professional, and the cocktails were delicious. highly recommend for hire!!
- Very spacious, fit 35 people well - Low minimum spend for a Saturday night - Overall I received very positive feedback from my friends
The Hall space is perfect and the kitchen has everything you need! The staff were very accommodating when it came to certain things which I loved. Staff are also very friendly and helpful!
