Oscar Wilde - Reservar una mesa

Yesterday we returned to the Hotel Café Royal for another afternoon tea, our first visit was last December for the festive offering, which we really enjoyed and awarded five stars. We were curious about what the January afternoon tea would be like and I’m pleased to say that we had a truly sumptuous experience with the most exquisite service. The tea room is beautiful, the sandwiches were full of delicious fillings and combinations, the scones were light and buttery and the cakes looked almost too good to eat. But we ate them anyway! However the standout for us was the generosity behind our lovely afternoon tea. In fact, we spent four hours eating, drinking and chatting, and we were kindly assured by our main server Shekhar, that we were welcome to relax and take our time, as our table was not needed. We were also offered further savoury and sweet treats and the additional conserve of Earl Grey tea jelly was really tasty and original. I would like to thank Shekhar for his attentive service and for sharing his knowledge of the teas on offer, in fact he was delightful and funny. He also ensured the promise of trying as many teas as we wanted to was fulfilled, this is something that in my experience other establishments fail to do. I really appreciated having a different pot of tea and a new cup to accompany all three courses, my favourite being the white peony one. I would also like to thank Samantha for gracefully ensuring our water was always replenished and for constantly asking if we required anything else. A special mention should also be given to the pianist who played a wide range of music beautifully and helped to elevate our visit to another level. I have already booked another visit in March to treat my Mum to afternoon tea for her birthday and I will be excited to see how this experience will compare.

There was most amazing afternoon tea experience i have ever had, everything was wonderful, we are warmly welcomed by the lovely receptionist Rita in the front door. Surprisingly, she knew it was my birthday and said happy birthday to me! After that, Showmo guided us to the best spot of the restaurant, he said it can view the whole restaurant, which I loved loved the most! I got to see the beautiful interior design of the Grill room with a small distance with pianist so that we can make small conversation. Last but not least, our waiter Gift also explained the set with great details, he has introduced us the proper sequence of having the sandwiches and the desserts so we can all feast ourselves with lots of sweet and savory food! Showmo and Gift had constantly checking on us to see if we need anything which elevated the whole experience and made us feel important. It definitely is my best birthday present ever! I enjoyed the whole afternoon tea experience and recommend everyone to go! Thank you so much for everyone who said happy birthday to me on that day!g

I cannot recommend this experience highly enough. From the moment we walked into the hotel and were shown to the grill room , to the young lady who greeted us and checked us into the grill room we were treated like royalty. Our server Shekhar couldn’t have been more attentive. The staff acknowledged it was my wife’s birthday and they brought a cake out and sang happy birthday to her and really made her feel special. The afternoon tea itself was amazing, the sandwiches were delicious and so fresh and the cakes were out of this world. They really went out of their way to make us feel special but they made my wife’s birthday extra special for her and we can’t wait to go back. We’re going to take our adult children back there for a nice treat. Thanks you Cafe royal and a special thank you to Shekhar our waiter

We came for Afternoon Tea to celebrate a friend’s birthday and she was made to feel SO special. We had a fabulous table near the pianist and were made to feel like the most important people in the room. Our host was very attentive and knowledgeable about the history of our beautiful surroundings and gave wise advice on which of the many teas to try. A wonderful relaxed atmosphere and a truly delicious afternoon tea. The Earl Grey jelly was inspired and I think the sandwiches may be the best we’ve ever had!

My husband treated me to afternoon tea for our 1st wedding anniversary at Cafe Royal. It is quite expensive but it really is an experience. The surroundings are absolutely stunning and the service is incredible. David, our host, was so attentive and so knowledgeable about all the teas. Would recommend as a special treat.
