Some places need not require a review, they should merely be enjoyed for what they are and that is what the Ritz Afternoon Tea experience is 💕
You get to indulge in some lovely sandwiches, scones and desserts with one of their gorgeous selection of teas in a beautiful, elegant setting. This is an Afternoon Tea that we would recommend to everyone to experience with those they love! It is the perfect place for a Valentines or an Anniversary Date!
Nevertheless, we shan’t dissappoint and bring you a review! 😊
Food: We ordered the Royal English Tea and the Chai (served with milk) which were both good choices. To accompany we were given a selection of sandwiches including Egg and Cress, Cheese Ploughman, Chicken, Cucumber and Dill, and Salmon and Creme Fraiche. These were all really good but some of the breads used were a little dry. The desserts were amazing and exceptionally crafted (especially the Lemon Macaroon!) Overall the food was good, the service was more like it is at a high end restaurant since it was quite busy and the settings just blew us away 👌🏽

If you’re looking for a stunning and very British afternoon tea in a classic London hotel, look no further than @theritzlondon 😍🇬🇧 It was my second time here for this regal experience and I can’t fault it. I 100% recommend for a special occasion with loved ones 🥰☕️ 

There is halal chicken available & gelatine-free desserts can be provided for a halal diet. The food was fantastic, the service was fantastic and I just loved the whole evening to be honest❣️

Who are YOU taking to The Ritz?

The Ritz London

This Afternoon Tea was the best I ever had!

We went here to celebrate our anniversary and opted for the Christmas afternoon tea with champagne. As soon as you walk through the doors, luxury is on the other side.
You are escorted downstairs to the cloak room and when the staff are ready, they guide you to your table.
The sandwiches are fresh, the scones are warm when served, the cakes are soft, the whole selection is delicious.
When we eat all the sandwiches and rolls, the staff bought us more!

As it was a Christmas afternoon tea, they had a choir and pianist performing Christmas songs which was a lovely touch. They also gave us a slice of chocolate yule. There is no chance you will leave hungry!
If you cannot finish it all (quite a few guests didn't), they do supply doggy bags.

Christmas Afternoon Tea with a glass of champagne plus the 15% gratitude charge cost us £115 per person. If you have afternoon tea outside the Christmas season, you can have afternoon tea without the champagne for a lower price.

This is certainly an experience I would recommend you try at least once in your life, I would happily have this again.

Had a great experience for afternoon tea! The moment you arrive at The Ritz, you were greeted by friendly staff! We were lead downstairs to the cloak room to leave our coats and then through to a beautiful room to wait until our table was ready. It was sumptuous and with luxurious furniture and decor!

Once our table was ready, we were called to our seats. The friendly waiter guided us through the menu and huge selection of teas. The food came very quickly and we enjoyed each mouthful whilst listening to a pianist playing in the background! The waiter kept coming back and pouring the teas. There were plenty of opportunities to try different teas too.

Lots of guests came to celebrate special occasions. We saw a band of waiters coming in with special cakes whilst the pianist played “happy birthday”!

All in all, a very enjoyable afternoon! Friendly staff all the way.

I came here for afternoon tea and the experience was beautiful from the start to finish. The staff were exceptional. We arrived earlier than ETA however the concierge met us, welcomed us and allowed us to wait at the reception. Very helpful.

Then we were ushered to the lounge room to wait a bit further until our table was ready. We left our items at the cloakroom with some lovely smiley ladies 😊

The afternoon tea itself was so good...the sandwiches kept coming and our waiter kept refilling. There was nothing too much for him to do...tea refills constantly. What we didn't finish were nicely packed away for us in their branded bags which was a lovely touch to the evening.

The powder room exquisite!

The room itself was beautiful and there was a live violinist with great tunes. Afterwards we were allowed to go back to the lounge till the time we were ready to leave.

I totally recommend it honestly and would return again ❤️👌🏼💥

We had afternoon champagne tea here. From meeting the doormen and having some laughs with them through to the service it was brilliant. It was a very enjoyable experience and a bucket list for us. The staff were fantastic and service was first class l. The hotel itself is beautiful and interior is everything you hoped it would be. We will definitely be back next time too.

Visited for afternoon tea for my mum's birthday surprise and it was amazing! The food was lovely lots of sandwiches, the scones lovely and warm and wow the cakes were gorgeous! The staff were very attentive making sure everything was good and topping up our tea for us. The piano player was beautiful to. We were made to feel so special , an unforgettable experience! Thank you The Ritz!

All the lamb that we serve in The Ritz hotel is Halal certified, but it is not prepared in a Halal environment. If a guest requests Halal chicken, we are able to accommodate this request but it is not prepared in a Halal environment. We are fully transparent to all guests that due to the nature and size of the hotel’s kitchen we do not have a separate area where only Halal meat is prepared.
