Tea At The Royal Opera House

Arrived deliberately early for ballet to relax with tea and something to eat in lovely cafe space. It was cold, the tables and counter areas were sticky and dirty and despite being very well staffed the service was very poor. A pot of tea translated to a very large double walled plastic beaker with no handle into which a teabags was dumped by disinterested staff. Sugar and milk is d- I-y, despite prices. The tea tasted revolting in the beaker. Moving on to the upper bar/cafe area we switched to coffee which was good- served in a cafetiere. However, again the tables were sticky, it was chilly and staff again stood around chatting loudly rather than serving customers. Cakes and sandwiches are...

Having booked to see The Sleeping Beauty we decided to treat ourselves to the special Sleeping Beauty Afternoon Tea which did not dissappoint. The setting itself is extrordinary and it was wonderful to wander around the venue and take in the building itself. The Afternoon Tea was fantasic, the attention to detail on the cakes and sandwiches stunning and even the tea itself amazing. I was so taken with the Red Velvet tea that was available that I have now ordered some directly from the provider. The staff at the restaurant were so attentive and did not rush us at all. The experience itself made a special day out with my mum even more special.

The restaurant on the ground floor has a very friendly staff and offers a ramp for disabled access. They serve the most delicious gluten-free and vegan cakes. The food quality was excellent for the price of £20 for three items, much better than the crowded and mass-produced food at Costa. The tables were well-spaced and there is also the excellent opera house nearby. I highly recommend checking out the recently revived opera shop as well.

we booked for afternoon tea and it is a fabulous venue. The service was good also the pastries. We got 4 very small sandwiches. The scones were small served with a small pot of jam and 1 small scoop of cream on one plate for 2 people. We asked for more and were told they only make enough for each booking. It was very poor value. Aside from the views dont waste your time or money as you can find better value elsewhere. Reserva una mesa ahora

I was at Royal Opera House's Piazza Terrace Bar on last week for a beer and a mouse was under my table, when i mentioned this to the people in the bar they just told me that they are aware about the problem, they didn't even apologize...they have opened an area and they serve drinks and snacks while they are aware about this... Inappropriate, unhealthy and disgusting.

Had a pre-opera meal here. £35 for two small courses. Good wines by the glass and the table is yours in the interval too for dessert for more drinks. Even by London standards this was too much money for too little. Service good though and it is spacious and airy.

maravilhoso em todos os seus aspectos. Na minha visão, cada teatro de ópera é como um Templo, onde a parte mais sensível da nossa alma habita............a música.
