    Full Afternoon Tea
    Stephanie P.

    We had a delightful tea time with fresh scones and tea sandwiches. The server made us feel welcome and let us take our time when ordering. We were here years ago and I think the storefront has been expanded a bit so all the store wares seemed to be well positioned and there was a fair amount to of selection of British goods. We look forward to our next visit.

    Went to Taste of Britain for their Winter Wonderland tea. They offered complimentary mimosa or a blackcurrant spritzer. I got the blackcurrant spritzer. It was really bubbly and light. The menu had a bunch of tea options to try out. I really liked the Hummingbird almond cake tea. It had notes of almond and cinnamon. They put it in a big pot that I kept forgetting to strain out when putting in my teacup. There were several layers of food that were brought out in a tower. For the savory dishes, I really enjoyed the smoked salmon salad tea sandwich and spiced crab bisque. I wasn't a big fan of the Yorkshire pudding. The next layer had scones. The two scones on the plate were white chocolate and cranberry. It offered a nice wintery charm. It was served with clotted cream, lemon curd, and strawberry preserves. I really liked the quality/taste of the lemon curd and strawberry preserves. The sweets were on top of the tower. They had an amazing cheesecake bite that tasted like eggnog. They also had chocolate hazelnut cake and white chocolate almond petit four. The only dessert I really disliked was the minced pie which didnt taste like dessert at all.

    Britain here I come! Such a gem this spot. My girlfriend and I exchanged gifts for the holidays, and I bought tea for two for the both of us at A Taste of Britain, the Winter Wonderland experience. We were served a pot of tea of our choosing and a towering tray of savories, scones, and sweets for each of us. Pro-Tip: You are supposed to start at the bottom of the tray aka savories and work your way up to end on the sweets. I am not going to detail every item placed on the tray, but I have uploaded a menu and will say the large scone they serve to you with choice of clotted cream, strawberry preserves, and lemon curd was sweet and delish. I was also pleasantly surprised with the sausage roll. When you walk inside the store, they have a very large and well laid out shop that you can buy items that are normally sold in Britain. If you cannot spare the time or money to travel to the UK, I highly recommend you dabble in this store, it is totally a feel-good vibe much like the feeling I get when I shop at World Markets. For the tea service this holiday season they even had Christmas Crackers (Christmas crackers are festive table decorations that make a snapping sound when pulled open, and typically contain a small gift, paper hat and a joke) on the table which I proceeded to crack open and wear the paper hat, hey now, I was definitely not the only one at the place who did it as other tables were sporting there paper hats and were totally soaking up the experience. If you are looking for a different kind of gift to give your loved ones this year, I highly recommend you purchase tickets to this experience for them. It will get them out of the house and create hopefully some wonderful memories : ) As always people SYOY!!!

    We had the most lovely themed tea yesterday. It was a Mary Poppins themed tea which truly was practically perfect in every way. The servers were all dressed as penguins and we all happy and super friendly and attentive. There was a young lady there who was Mary Poopins who even sang A Spoonful of Sugar and she was outstanding. The tea was delightful. And the food excellent. Everything was fresh and well seasoned. The sweets were particularly delicious.

    Enjoy High Tea in a fun space with delicious sandwiches, scones, and desserts. You can go ala carte or prix fixe with both being very reasonable for what you get. The service was five stars (Thanks Robin!). A cute store attached with all kinds of British themed knickknacks, gifts, and tea related items. Dress was a mix of very casual jeans to suit coats. Highly recommend!

    Loved the full afternoon tea experience. It was great that you get to pick your flavor of sandwich and scone! My favorite was the turkey and cranberry little sandwich and the cherry/almond scone was delicious! We got the September scone of the month and that was my mom's favorite. My favorite tea was the creamy caramel. It was a little loud, but that means that people were talking and enjoying themselves, so I can't complain too much. They have a really nice gift shop too! Service was nice and food came out really quick. Reservations recommended. I'd happily take my mom Back here again, she loved the experience!

    My wife wanted to do some fancy tea. The places she had visited before were in center city. I didn't want to deal with the parking situation. So I jumped on Yelp and found this place. Made reservations for their valentines special. Super cute place. Delectable little treats tower for valentines. It had savory and sweet. Honestly I liked the savory options more. We got a surprise deviled egg with fried prosciutto. I can't explain how god it was. Ahi tuna on little crispy bead. That was delicious. These mini mushroom soup shooters. Those were so good we bought a quart of the soup on the way out. The only thing I wasn't keen on was the flank steak sandwich. That was kinda weird. Crab meat and pea balls that were just amazing. The red velvet scone was surprisingly not sweet and came with jelly, butter, and a lemon spread. Lemon spread was the best but not on red velvet. I thought the butter was something cool at first and took a bit bite of it. I picked one of their teas specials. The snow angel. We left very full. Oh at the start I got a complimentary sparkling drink and she got a mimosa.

    My favorite go to place for an afternoon tea. So affordable and so good. It comes with generous portions of sandwiches and cute desserts. Inside is a cute British vibe and don't forget to check out their snacks and souvenirs shop, so many cute British things. Must try their holiday theme tea! Make a reservation! It's always booked here.

    Went here today for an early lunch, really more of a brunch, and had an exceedingly wonderful experience. The only damper was a large table that included several children who were unattended and kept going in and out of the side door. However, this was not the fault of the staff or establishment, all of whom where absolutely outstanding. The place is amazing and has a wonderful vibe. From the store up front to the tea room in the rear, and from the minute we arrived, I was enthralled. For the table we ordered two teas, the standard English Breakfast and then the amazing Scottish Highlands, of which, apparently I was lucky enough to get the last pot brewed before having to try to reacquire more of that beautiful blend. Along with that, we started with the Ploughman's Platter, an assortment of amazing cheeses and pickles, toasts, jams, and fruit. Absolutely divine! As if that wasn't good enough it was followed with what I was awaiting eagerly; the tea sandwiches. We also ordered the August Frittata that had goat cheese, onion, and a delicious assortment of mushrooms baked in! It came with a delicious Gazpacho as well, and although I love soup, I'm not usually one for cold soup, but this was unbelievable! Flavor and texture was perfection. Finally we closed with one of the most interesting and balanced eclairs I have ever had, and I'm not big on dessert. I couldn't have asked for more. Everything we ordered was stellar and as I said earlier, on top of all that, the staff was so amazing, it completely overrode the distraction of the irritating table that could have easily ruined our experience had it been anywhere else. Afterwards we even stopped in the store and picked up a variety of scones and they even packaged up a small amount of a very limited blueberry preserves that wasn't available except in the restaurant, simply because we expressed how much we loved it. Bottom line, if you're in the area and you're looking for something different, or a place that makes you feel classic, catered-to, or simply special, you cannot beat a meal here, or even something as simple as tea...

    Afternoon tea for 2! Separated to account for potential allergy cross-contamination which is a nice touch

    I went with my boyfriend for afternoon tea after seeing so many videos on TikTok. We were excited for our first experience. Our server Faith was great and helped take into consideration my boyfriend's almond allergy (kept our food separate in case of cross-contamination and gave us separate towers). The hummingbird tea and orange brûlée tea were both delicious! My favorite bite was the samoa mousse cake bite! My only complaint is that the sandwiches were pretty dry. The sandwiches seemed to be pre-prepared and sitting out for a while so the edges of the bread were dry. Between the 2 of us, we tried all flavors offered. The fillings were fine, but nothing stood out about them. I would probably go here again for the tea and scones and desserts, but there's no need for the finger sandwiches in my opinion.

    Took our group of three weeks to get in. Restaurant was crowded when we walked in. Was seated quickly at a corner table. The server was attentive throughout our lunch. We chose the Afternoon tea option and each of us chose different options so we could share. We got different teas and sandwiches. Out of the teas, Hummingbird Almonds Cake tea was my favorite. Sweet but not too sweet. Was so unique from the rest. The tuna and egg salad sandwiches were delicious too!

It is a tiny building but they are doing it right! There is complimentary valet parking which was great because I have no idea where we would have parked. We were seated at exactly 4:30, and our server was friendly and fast. RJ and I ordered Downeast Peach Mango Cider which was refreshing and delicious. We started with crab and artichoke dip and beef and weck eggrolls, and our table ordered 2 fish and chips, the "Luxury" seafood pie, shepherd's pie, and the beef on weck sandwich. My weck included onions, mushrooms, swiss, and bacon with a side of au jus and horseradish. Yum, what a salty, savory, spicy combo. The roast beef was very tender and juicy. The fish and chips were all enjoyed, as were both pies. We did not make it to dessert but will try that again another time. We were in and out in about 1 hour without being rushed at all. We will definitely return to the Whip!

King's Highway has a charming little stretch of independent ambition, all tidy storefronts and quiet confidence. This is where you can find The British Chip Shop, which I had long intended to try, and at last my synapses and my hunger aligned. The place was empty when I entered, which always feels like it could be either a warning or a gift. A voice from the kitchen promised to appear, and did, promptly and kindly, seating me by the window like a character in a underattended play. I ordered the daily special: Pork pie, mashed potatoes, mushy peas, and added a Tango orange soda for good measure. The pork pie arrived hot and full of purpose, the kind of food that knows exactly what it is. The mushy peas were fresh and honest. The mashed potatoes, however, seemed to have lost the will to live, bland and harboring a cold, defiant lump of butter at their center. The soda did exactly what it claimed, which is all one can ask of a soda. Only later did I notice I could have swapped the peas and mash for chips, and for a few dollars more added cheese and curry sauce. This knowledge arrived to me too late, as most useful knowledge does. Next time, I will be wiser. All told, an enjoyable, slightly pricey lunch with one unfortunate spud based misadventure. Still, if you find yourself wandering this lovely town, it is worth stepping inside. Four stars, because curiosity was rewarded, if not perfectly fed.

    After reading a plentiful amount of reviews espousing the qualities of The Stone Tavern, and…read moreviewing some amazing looking photos of the food, a work colleague and I were excited to visit for lunch and try it out. We were promptly seated in a mostly full dining area just to the right of the entrance around 12:30 pm on a Thursday. The dining room was spacious with plenty of room between tables though the booths are a tad tight. A large bar area with lots of TVs looked appealing as well. Drinks were quickly ordered and served as we perused the menu. While we had both looked at the menu prior to coming, and had an idea of what we wanted, there were so many appealing options that we second guessed a little as we made the tough decisions to not order way more than we could consume. Finally we decided on The Hot Roast Beef Sandwich with fries, the Ribeye Cheesesteak with fries, and a bowl of the Tomato, Bacon Mac & Cheese with the agreement to split the sandwiches and mac & cheese so we could both try additional items. Three very full and visually appealing plates of food arrived quickly (about 10-12 minutes after ordering) and we were ready to dig in. First up was the Ribeye Cheesesteak with caramelized stout onions, truffled local mushrooms, and sharp provolone on a Liscio's roll. Immediately viewable was the limited amount of cheese that was only lining the roll and not mixed into the meat in any way. Biting into the sandwich revealed a dry meat with a distinctly non-cheesesteak flavor. It wasn't bad, but it just tasted like a bland steak and cheese sandwich. The sharp provolone didn't make it to the party and had no noticeable presence. After eating half of my portion I added some ketchup which helped some with the dryness. This was a 25 out of 5 and I wouldn't bother ordering it again. I also started to consume the shoestring french fries while I ate the cheesesteak, and they were delicious. Crisp with just the right amount of salt. 4.5 out of 5. Next up was the Hot Roast Beef Sandwich with thinly shaved Black Angus beef that is roasted daily, served with Au Jus, and horseradish sauce on a long roll. Topped with cheese and loaded with meat, this is what I was most looking forward to and couldn't wait to take a bite. I wish I hadn't! By itself, this was probably the blandest sandwich I have ever had in my life, while dipping into the Au Jus definitely improved the flavor, it still wasn't enough. I tried adding the horseradish sauce, but that was a sad approximation of real horseradish. Worst of all was the meat itself, where I had three different bites that were fatty/gristly and couldn't be chewed. Can't say I've ever had that from a roast beef sandwich before. 1.5 out of 5. Lastly, we had the Tomato, Bacon Mac & Cheese consisting of cavatappi pasta, applewood smoked bacon, and some diced tomato. This was sadly also a disappointment. The quality of the cheese left something to be desired and the sauce was very runny in consistency even after letting it sit for 10 mins while everything else was eaten. Another bland dish that neither of us even bothered to finish or box up to take home. Ketchup couldn't save this. 2 out of 5. Other than the fries, the only other bright spot was the service. Our waitress Isabella was polite, attentive, and performed her job well. Refilling drinks and making sure we were taken care of. 5 out of 5 for service. Affordability... for the three dishes and two Diet Cokes the total came to $57.27 with tax plus a $12 tip. The portion sizes were strong, but the flavor eliminated any value proposition. Overall, the food looked far better than it tasted and I was really disappointed in the meal. I had hoped I'd found a good local pub to take family and friends, but The Stone Tavern doesn't cut it. 2 out of 5 rating with no good reason to return.
