My cousin and I decided to spend a dreary, wet Saturday afternoon in the shops in the same area as the Alby Tearoom. We decided we needed a little sustenance before we began. We both chose cappuccino. I ordered a pastry, and my cousin ordered a hearty sandwich. Our order took about twenty minutes to arrive. The cappuccinos were a great choice, were appropriately strong, and arrived in big wide cups with lots of froth. The pastry was fresh and flavorful as was the sandwich which was typical hearty English country fare. Next time I visit England, I will be sure to go back and try their soup and salad.
Charming decor, friendly wait staff, wish their service was a little more expedient. read more
