A Taste Of Britain

I have to say my family and I were very disappointed with our recent trip to taste of Britain. This is a place we always love going to. However, since I made the reservation way in advance I was not aware of the pre fixed winter wonderland menu. We still tried to make the most of it and even asked if we could substitute for the sandwich flavors we love but we were told this wasn’t possible. We ended up not eating most of the food that was brought to us mostly because it was not good in general (dry/hard scones, tough meatballs, and food that did not look appetizing). Then to find out it was $54 per person was additionally upsetting since we definitely did not get a great experience from this...

If you want an authentic British tea experience, I highly recommend A Taste of Britain. It is an adorable little tea house hidden gem. They have a zillion teas… even have a “loo” (bathroom)! The Full Afternoon Tea is a bit pricey per person, but well worth it for the experience. The rest of the menu is comparably priced. We got 2 Full Afternoon Teas for our table of 5 to share, added individual teas for the other 3 ordered a couple things from the lunch menu. This gave us a nice variety. If you don’t go hungry, the Full Afternoon tea is perfect for sharing. If hungry…you will want to order some food as well. It is BYOB. The service was impeccable all around! It was raining when we arrived. T...

I am an English expat living locally and recently received a $100.00 gift certificate to shop at Taste of Britain. Despite the high prices, they had a decent selection of food. We purchased bacon, cottage pie, sausages, and candy. The pricey cottage pie had mushy mashed potatoes on top, which were not very appetizing. The sausages were disappointing, with a texture more like a hot dog and lacking in flavor. I later realized they were not English, but actually made in New Jersey. I have yet to try the bacon. I often travel to the UK but cannot bring back meat products. Overall, I was disappointed with my shopping experience at Taste of Britain.

I was worried about the negative reviews on the Winter Wonderland Tea Menu, but it is actually quite good! They were able to replace the chocolate orange scone with the regular chocolate chip scone for me. Much appreciated! They offered many loose tea selections and the waiter stopped by every now and then to refill hot water. The savory bites and sweets they offered here $54/person) are of higher quality and more delicate than those of the Dandelion $30/person, I wrote a review there as well). Plus, they offered one additional appetizer that was not on the menu. You got what you paid for. Would consider to revisit this place. Reserva una mesa ahora

I visited iconic landmarks in London like Piccadilly Circus, Trafalgar Square, Big Ben, and the Houses of Parliament. I also explored the historic Tower of London to see the Crown Jewels. Walking around the city was convenient and felt secure. I watched the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace and visited the Canadian gates nearby, which had a dedicated waterfall in remembrance of soldiers fallen in battle.

Nice overpriced afternoon tea! It's a good experience for the Holidays, their selection of small bites and scones and sweets is decent and the staff is professional and friendly, that's it. Pretty basic for the money you're charged. I've already tried and don't think will be back there anytime soon.

I’ve been attending this restaurant for many years probably since the late 90s and this most recent visit was excellent I think they have improved in their overall quality and the service was impeccable. Their tea sandwiches are phenomenal as is their scones!

If you're outside of Philadelphia, you absolutely must experience the authentic and delicious British cuisine at this restaurant. The tea, sausage rolls, and scones are all fantastic. Don't miss out on trying their scones, they are a must-try! Reserva una mesa ahora

What a fabulous experience having afternoon tea. The food is very good but the truffles with royal treatment are something sent from heaven. Tea is always brewed perfectly and service is great. Kirsty went above and beyond to accommodate us.

We had the best little holiday tea party there! Will make it a yearly tradition and introduce it to others! Such a fun atmosphere and unique gift shop.
