My friend booked this for a weekend, and our check-in was extremely smooth. Given the weather was really nice, we were offered a seat in their outdoor heated patio. The decor is incredible inside the space, and the staff are equally kind and attentive. We got the grand Vanderbilt tea option, and tried the English breakfast tea, Darjeeling, and Earl Grey. The sandwiches were all rather delicious, though I found the scones a bit dry. The desserts were small, but also delicious. I wouldn't come here if you're extremely picky about afternoon tea food as the food was pretty standard. Overall, I think this high tea is quite good for the value, and the staff were always stopping by to check if we needed a tea refills. I would definitely come back, especially given the nice ambience and overall experience.
Did you know that tea lights for their name from the lights that were lit beneath tea pots to keep tea warm? I learned that here at Brooklyn High Low! I had a morning to kill before a work event and wanted afternoon tea! This reservation was not easy to get and I was lucky to snag a less desirable 10am ish reservation. It was cold outside (all the inside seats were full) but they provided warm, fuzzy heated blankets so it wasn't much of an issue. I wish I'd been able to pick which tea I got but the house black tea they served and picked for me was good. The sandwiches were delicious but I found the desserts to be lacking. Service was wonderful. There's only one bathroom and it was very clean and aesthetic, like most of the decor. It screams maximalist and vintage, very fun. Everything was good but I'm not sure if it's worth the steep price. There's other more reasonably-priced afternoon tea service options in the city.
Food: 2/5 | Service: 1/5 | Experience: 1.5/5 For an experience that we needed to book a month in advance, I was vastly disappointed by this restaurant. I booked the $65 experience for two for an outdoor covered heated area (stated in the reservation) that I needed to provide my credit card for. For context, day of is quite cold and snowing. We arrive, get seated in the outdoor area with a stray bird also enclosed with us, get provided with heated blankets, and we get largely ignored. It's genuinely freezing out in the garden. We got the cardamom vanilla tea which was a favorite, and the orange blossom tea which was oversteeped and bitter. Pastries itself were okay. We get handed the check unprompted, and when we call a waiter over to get boxes for our leftover food because we are freezing at this point, we get forgotten. We end up leaving the rest of our food and go inside the restaurant to pay, where we are reminded that we can leave a tip. Overall, mediocre tea experience with ok food, terrible service. I do NOT recommend.
Gluten free tea service was very nice. We opted for Grand Heights, which included tea, crumpets, soup, finger sandwiches, scones, and a few sweets. It was definitely a savory forward experience with a sweet finish and we found it delightful- everything was good. Tea was try as much as you'd like for this experience. We loved everything we tried but the panna cotta was our stand-out. Service was friendly. Ambiance was really nice. The pictures I saw online didn't do justice to how cozy and comfortable the space feels. Overall great experience and will visit again.
Very cute afternoon tea place. I love the ambience here; it's exactly what you would want at a tea place. It's very cozy and decorated as if you're in someone's home. They have a wide selection of unique teas and you get to choose a pot with unlimited refills. The finger food was good; not standout but solid
There was a stretch of time when I was super into tea, so I was excited to hear about Brooklyn High Low. My friend was hosting a small afternoon tea for her birthday. My interest was raised even further when she let us know that Brooklyn High Low asked us to pick out our pot of tea in advance. The back patio area is so cute and charming. The weather was just gorgeous and perfect. We were seated in the back corner, which was cozy albeit a little bit difficult for everyone to maneuver around each other as we were a bigger group. We were served our teapots (individual teapots, each different and with character) and tea cups with warm scones, cream, jam and lemon curd. I got the Scottish Toffee Pu-Erh which was so luxurious and gourmand. Then, we were served the whole tower of tea sandwiches. My favorite tea sandwich was the egg salad one, though all of them were tasty. I was glad I skipped lunch, as this was quite a bit of food and we had sandwiches left over. The service was very attentive, and I appreciated all of the cute decor and touches. They let us stay even longer than the time limit for the tea service. I would love to go back for high tea service in this beautiful gem!
Are you kidding me?? This is the cutest afternoon tea spot I've seen in New York. It feels like dining in your posh British aunt's parlour, we felt right at home upon arrival. The sandwiches were all delicious, especially the apricot jam and cucumber dill. The scones were a bit dry, but the real clotted cream made up for it. And I could have eaten ten of those chocolate mousses! The house black tea was delicious but I would highly recommend the Cardamom Vanilla Black Tea for just $8 more (and it's bottomless). The servers were quick with service and attentive with refilling the tea pots. We sat across from Anna Kendrick so you know it's celebrity-approved!
I had a very special birthday meal at this restaurant. Everyone was very friendly and able to explain everything on the menu. I especially enjoyed being able to add a tiara onto my meal. The tiara itself is a very high-quality, which I appreciate. I chose the largest tea which came with soup and a crumpet in the beginning. The soup was a very refreshing carrot ginger soup. I also enjoyed the sandwiches, desserts, and scones. They also brought over a special plate that said happy birthday on it. That made my day extra special. Another important thing to note is that you can bring your own bubbly beverage. They gladly uncork your beverage and provide glasses. My one piece of advice is that if you are fixated on having a particular kind of tea, it may be worth it to call ahead and see if they are in stock that day. I would highly suggest this teahouse to anyone, and for those in Manhattan, I would say it is worth the travel.
Food (4/10): - I thought the scones and desserts given were pretty tasty - Sandwiches were underwhelming unfortunately - Tea was standard but I loved the cute little sugar cubes! - My group and I got the classic. It should be enough food to make you feel ok/satiated, but not completely full and definitely not bloated Service (4.5/5): - Polite but sometimes a bit slow - Overall, no complaints Ambiance (5/5): - Very cute vintage aesthetic - Clean and cozy - Great place to take friends!
A very cute experience, friendly staff, and tasty tea sandwiches and dessert! We made a reservation and the outside garden was only available but they have heating lamps and give you blankets which was helpful because we went on a very cold day. It is covered so that helped with blocking wind. We chose the Vanderbilt package and it was the perfect amount for the two of us! We really liked their chocolate mousse and the tea sandwiches! Definitely worth the experience and a perfect date idea!!
Honestly just such a lovely experience from start to finish and incredible value for money. We got the grand heights high tea service and got to try 5 different pots of teas, 8 different finger sandwiches, biscuits, soup, crumpets, 3 desserts, and a souvenir--for just $75 per person. To put that into context--most tea rooms in Manhattan will charge $120 per person or more for the same experience! Ontop of that the service is phenomenal and everyone is so kind and fast! And the entire place is just adorable. We sat in the tea garden which was absolutely lovely and cozy with heaters to keep us warm in the winter--we were so comfy I forgot we were outside! I am so sad I have lived this close and not been here before now? Needless to say I will not be missing out anymore and will definitely be coming back soon!
This place is adorable, the decor is busy in the best way. The finger sandwiches are tasty and their desserts are pretty traditional but there is care to add their own spin to things. The service was very attentive and we were reached out to the prior day for our tea selections which was really lovely.
Amazing high tea experience! They had a wide variety of finger sandwiches, which I enjoyed as well as a large selection of teas to choose from. My friend and I got the vanderbilt set, which was more than enough. We couldn't even finish all the pastries between the two of us. Highly recommend coming here if you want to do a friend catch-up or chat about life. The ambiance is so relaxing. This place is reservation only so plan ahead. Waitstaff was also really friendly. read more

Make a reservation on open-table! There are very limited spots and seating. They do not take walk ins. They're only opened Friday Saturday Sunday, and spots get snatched up QUICK. I opted to get "the classic" with my friend Amy. It was $48.00+ tip/tax, prices are located on their website for different tiers. We did the outdoor garden seating which in my opinion is more spacious and "Alice in wonderland" compared to their indoor arrangements. They also have heaters and blankets if you get cold. On to the tea set! Our set came with their house made black tea, bottomless paired with either milk, sugar, lemon or honey. A assortment of tea sandwiches, there were 4 flavors and each person got two sandwiches each. Next tier had a scone with jam and butter, and then the top tier was a mousse cup thing and a cookie that tasted like a danish butter cookie. The service was warm and friendly. I adored the tea cups and all of the tea pots they had on display. I really enjoyed the aesthetic and whimsical flair of Brooklyn High Low, I would definitely come back soon with my girlies for a cute date! read more

So 5 star for ambiance, service and food . The food was so much better than the plaza where went last year for my birthday . The decor was interesting and fun . Jordon and Cosima were so friendly and accommodating , they couldn't do enough for us. They kept saying we want you to feel at home, but I'll add without my having to do anything. . I can't say enough good things. read more

What a wonderful high tea experience. Very cozy and super sweet staff. Family ran establishment with another property a few doors over, the vintage store. The decor is eclectic and you feel like you're at your grandmothers house. To make it clear, that is never a bad thing. Great little sandwiches, tea selections, and pastries. But you come here for the experience. Which is very relaxing and calm. Not loud, separate tables, and not many people in there at a time. Very good for covid conscious friends. Will be back! read more

We did the heights service at their flagship location. The restaurant is tiny but cute. The service was great! The tea selection was excellent and you get to try so many. The food was just okay, but for $70, it was definitely worth the experience! read more

I made a reservation for the Vanderbilt tier for my friend's birthday since she loves London and we wanted to recreate an experience of having afternoon tea for her. The service, tea, decor, ambience, and food were stellar! Upon arriving, we waved and I believe she was the owner came out to take our temperatures (minor but I do appreciate that she took our temperature on our wrists instead of our foreheads--it can feel weirdly intimate/uncomfortable when someone points a thermometer so close to your forehead). She then led us to the cute courtyard out back, showing us two restrooms along the way. The inside is soooo adorable, but the outside was cute as well! I loved the little knickknacks and mish mosh of dishware. We had two lovely ladies take our tea order and sandwich order. I ordered the Sleep Ease which was nice and light (I needed a decaf tea), and the truffle chicken, smoked salmon, brie and fig, and maple bacon (daily special) as my sandwich options. I really loved that there were tea light holders so you could put your pot of tea on top to warm it up. The pot seemed like it never ended, I kept pouring and pouring! We were all soooo stuffed after the meal. In addition, they brought out a beautiful cake for my friend for her birthday! What a nice surprise. Felt so bad we couldn't eat it all because we were so full! I would definitely recommend this place for a nice treat yoself afternoon tea! read more

Such a cute little cozy space. Enjoyed afternoon tea here. Had the Grand Vanderbilt and loved the variety of tea sandwiches, scone, and sweets. The staff was very friendly and did a great job of explaining the teas and everything that was on the tiered plates. Would definitely come back! read more
This is a once in a lifetime, AMAZING experience. I cannot rave enough about the out of this world experience that was high tea at Brooklyn High Low. My sister and I decided to take out Mom here as part of her birthday gift because she is a HUGE fan of high teas. BEST EVER!! We paid for the most expensive package. Worth every penny. The day before our reservation I received a text with the tea menu and an option to pre-order 3 teas so they can be brewed and ready to go when we arrived. 1 of the teas was out of stock, but they suggested another one. From the minute we walked in the door the service, ambience and food was exquisite. Pleasant, delightful, helpful staff to help you on your high tea journey. Beautiful furniture, place settings and dinnerware in comfortable little nooks that gave diners space with an intimate feel AND social distance from other diners. Since our first visit we have dine both indoors and outdoors and they are both delightful, roomy spaces. As I said, I loved everything about the experience, especially the tasty little sandwiches and scones with clotted cream. Honestly, I filled up on the teas and had to take away my desserts. But everything was so tasty! Is it a pricy experience? Yes. But definitely worth every penny. Sometimes you just have to spoil yourself. read more
Fantastic tea service right in the heart of Prospect Heights! Brooklyn High Low is beyond charming, cozy, and the perfect destination to spend the afternoon imbibing on sweet and savory treats! The decorations and attention to detail both in the sitting room and the garden will leave you feeling like you're at your best friend's house! Couple that with amazing, friendly service and you'll want to escape back everyday! Pro Tips: 1. Get the "Heights" tea package, the value is unmatched for the amount of food, unlimited tea, and assortment of delectables you receive. 2. The Truffle Chicken, Smoked Fish & Scallion, and Egg Salad sandwiches are not to be missed if they're on the menu! 3. The homemade scones and crumpets are out of this world. 4. And the Cottage Breakfast tea is a welcome, delicious take on the classic English Breakfast! read more

Had a great experience here - great for a celebration! You do need a reservation, and when you arrive you ring a doorbell and a staff member will come get you. The ambiance was so cute! Lots of unique things to look at, and very fun, comfy furniture. The tea was very good! They have an extensive menu and staff is very knowledgeable about it. The food was great too! They have lots of meatless options which was nice, because we were a mixed group of vegetarians and carnivores. The food was good overall, scones a bit dry. Service was very kind although they didn't clear any old dishes unless asked so it got a bit crowded. These are really small things though and we had a very enjoyable experience overall! Overall definitely recommend to fans of high tea, to celebrate your special occasion! read more

My cousin and I had a wonderful time here. Everything was beautiful. We ordered the 2nd level tea service. I don't remember the name. The service and ambiance was absolutely divine. We were able to choose from 25 different teas. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the scones. They were very dry and not much flavor. I had to dip it in my tea to make it work. But all the sandwiches and desserts were delicious. We left feeling fulfilled. read more
Came here on a warm Sunday afternoon to continue the celebration of my sister's best friend's birthday. Before you enter, there is a doorbell that you have to press so that one of members of the staff can let you in. We were greeted by one of the sweetest girl's who showed us to where we would be sitting (there were 4 of us). We opted to stay indoors since it was pretty warm outside, but they do have outdoor seating as well. The decor is absolutely beautiful. There's neat trinkets everywhere and although it rarely matched we loved it. Kind of reminded us of something we'd see at our grandmas place. We all got The Grand Vanderbilt ($60 pp). We got 5 teas - Chai, Cardamom vanilla black tea, Nola, Italian Biscotti and Decadence. They provided us with milk and sugar. My sister loves almond milk and they were able to provide that as well which was pleasantly nice. We also got our 3 tier stand with delicious treats, sandwiches and scones. The scones were beyond delicious and it came with jam and curd. The mini sandwiches were really good except for the one that had salmon, I didn't like the pairing but my sister enjoyed it. Overall the experience was really good. Everyone was really nice and introduced themselves to us. We didn't feel rushed at all and were all stuffed by the time we had to leave. The vibe was cozy. You do have to make a reservation a head of time and they'll even text you 2 days before your reservation to get your tea order so that they have it ready by the time you arrive. I highly recommend this place and will even be back here again myself. read more
I'm very happy with my experience at Brooklyn high and definitely recommend the place to others. First of all, this place don't allow walk-ins (which I loved so you are not in-experienced with people constantly coming in and out) so please make your reservation ahead of time. I had the classic set with my friend and everything came out really tasty. I really appreciate attentiveness of staffs here. Everyone who served us introduced themselves and kindly let us know about the menu. Inside looks really cute with lots of interesting props. (Great photo ops!) I was allergic to cucumbers and they were able to replace with a different sandwich and also gave us additional house special sandwiches which were so yum. It was a lot of food so we both ended up taking some sandwiches to go at the end. I highly recommend Brooklyn high for their food and service! read more

I have fallen in love with afternoon tea and it is basically nonexistent in Connecticut! When we decided to make a trip to Brooklyn to go to the museum, I knew we had to get tea somewhere. I've gotten afternoon tea in Manhattan before, but my goodness, Brooklyn High Low is the BEST and surprisingly unknown in the community! I really appreciated how diligent they were about COVID safety precautions! They had us ring a door bell prior to entering, checked for proof of vaccination, and checked our temperature. There was amazing spacing between all the parties as well. Service was amazing. All the wonderful ladies who served us were so kind, knowledgeable, and had wonderful recommendations. My partner and I were able to choose 4 different sandwiches from a huge selection of sandwiches. We had the pastrami, blue cheese and orange marmalade, egg salad, brie and fig jam, salmon and cream cheese, and truffle chicken salad. My favorite was the egg salad and my partner adored the blue cheese and orange marmalade! Our trays were gorgeous. We were even given a cake to celebrate our anniversary! Our dessert tray had a gorgeous chocolate mousse, macarons, cannoli bites, and chocolate covered strawberries. My partner and I both had the ability to choose a pot of tea. I chose the Green Apple Almond tea and it was DELICIOUS. It was subtle but so aromatic. My partner chose Truffle Coconut Black Tea! He added honey and milk to it so it actually tasted like a warm bubble tea. Both were amazing teas and we highly recommend them! Overall, this experience was wonderful. We cannot wait to return to relive this experience all over again. Thank you to all the staff that made our trip to New York such a great one! read more

I think I've been to pretty much every place in NYC that serves high tea / afternoon tea, and I can confidently say that Brooklyn High Low is at the top of my list. Located in Prospect Heights, this place is cozy, charming, beautifully decorated inside, with a large back garden patio with outdoor seating and heaters. You won't believe how much food you get for $68! One reason I love this tea room is because it provides elegant and charming ambiance and fantastic tea and snacks but without the elitist price tag you'll see at tea rooms in Manhattan. FOOD/TEA My friend and I had the Heights service today, which includes: - a pot of tea each (we both got cottage breakfast) - soup (soup of the day was tomato) - four kinds of sandwiches (I got cucumber with cream cheese, prosciutto with marscapone and fig jam, salmon with cream cheese, and truffle chicken curry) - a middle tier featuring scones with clotted cream, lemon curd, strawberry jam, herb butter, and English muffins - a dessert tier of macarons, petit four, chocolate mousse, and chocolate covered strawberries - bubbly (prosecco or non-alcoholic) The sandwiches were tasty and filling; my friend and I both liked the truffle chicken curry the best, though I'm a traditionalist so cucumber sammies will always have a place in my heart. Every tier was a delight and surprisingly filling. SERVICE The staff were unbelievably friendly and helpful. When it was clear we wouldn't be able to finish the food and tea, they gave us boxes for food and to-go cups for tea. AMBIANCE The decorations in the tea room are very cute, with velvet furniture in jewel tones and mirrors everywhere. The outdoor area is beautifully decorated too, they definitely didn't skimp! I appreciated the tent for rain and the heaters above the tables, and I saw fans for when the weather is warmer. Support local businesses! COVID Everyone wore masks. You must use hand sanitizer and get your temperature taken before entering. Tables are spaced more than 6 feet apart and sanitized silverware is on the table for each party. You HAVE to check this place out, especially during these chilly days when a hot cup of tea warms your soul. You can make reservations on OpenTable, but I had better luck on Instagram DMing them since OpenTable didn't show any open slots. You can buy tea from the room or from the store next door. read more

Loved the high tea - we got the classic and were able to sit in such a beautiful room for an hour and a half and catch up! The environment is what you're really paying for - the cute tea cups, the beautiful decor, the comfy couches and cushions, and the spaciousness and atmosphere of quiet - so rare to find in nyc sometimes. It's the perfect place to go with a friend and chat about life or to try throw a little birthday party. I'd come back to try some of their other fun tea sets Make sure to make a reservation in advance! read more

Brought my daughter here to celebrate her recent college graduation - summa cum laude! And we were not disappointed. The staff is very friendly and warm, the tea choices seemingly endless, the presentation is adorable, and the food - from finger sandwiches to scones to macarons - delicious. The decor both inside the shop and in their covered outdoor patio area is charmingly somewhere between fancy British high tea-ish and chok-a-block vintage store. (The owner owns the store 1 Of A Kind Vintage down the street). It's adorable. My daughter and I had a very nice time and left full, happy, and as if we had had a nice treat. I selected the medium-tier option, for $60 each. I didn't appreciate a $3 upcharge per person when we asked only for vegetarian finger sandwiches and they forgot to include the personal "celebration cake" I had ordered in advance. But that's okay. Overall it was a really lovely experience. I chatted with Honey, the owner, and her daughter Olivia - both working at the front - as I departed. They are lovely, and I expect to return again soon for a special treat with friends. read more

This is hands down one of my favorite afternoon tea parlors. Best of all it's in Brooklyn! I have been twice in the year it has been opened and I cannot wait to go back. My only wish is that it was opened for more than 3 days of the week (fri-sun). I was here about two weeks ago celebrating a birthday with a friend, and she was just as delighted and charmed by the service as I was. It's pretty affordable as far as afternoon tea service goes, ranging from $48- $68. It's located on a charming strip of prospect heights along Vanderbilt Ave. There's also an outdoor patio that's beautifully decorated for those that are concerned with dining indoors. Although, I must say that nothing beats the decor and ambiance of their indoor space. read more
My friends and I spontaneously decided to get afternoon tea and we were able to grab a reservation around Saturday noon an hour before the reservation. This place is reservation-only so be sure to book in advance! To enter, you ring a doorbell and a staff member will first take your temperature before entering. The place itself is so cute, decorated with lots of vintage furniture, art, and trinkets. The indoor seating features four tables with each table being able to fit around 4 people. We ordered the $48/person classic tea service which featured four different finger sandwiches, scones with clotted cream and jelly, chocolate mousse, macarons, and a cheesecake pastry. We were also served a delicious black tea that was light and floral-ly. Unfortunately I forgot the name of the tea :( There was also milk, sugar, and honey provided. The sandwiches served were a classic egg salad sandwich, a cream cheese and cucumber, Brie and fig jam, and a pickle and cheddar sandwich. The bread used for the sandwiches was super soft and fluffy which made it easy to eat. I would say my favorites were the cucumber and the egg sandwich. The egg salad was creamy and just overall a pretty classic and standard sandwich. The cucumber cream cheese sandwich was very light and refreshing. The fig and Brie sandwich was pretty good as well and this is coming from someone who does not like Brie at all! The fig jam paired well with the creaminess Brie and the Brie was not overwhelming at all (which is usually my issue with Foods with Brie). The pickle and cheddar sandwich was a miss for me -- there was some type of pickle jelly that was a little too tart and pungent for my liking. The scones were pretty good as well! They were fluffy and buttery. There wasn't enough jam and clotted cream for the three of us, but our server provided more for us when we asked! The desserts, I have to say were a little lackluster. The macaron I ate was passion fruit flavored and the taste and texture were pretty standard. So no complaints about the macarons! However, the chocolate mousse was overwhelmingly sweet and it was a little bit on the thinner side so the texture wasn't to my liking either. The cheesecake pastry was a flaky outer crust with a sweet cream cheese filling. This was not bad but also not too spectacular. When I first saw the food arrive, I thought it was a decent amount of food but I would probably still have space in the end. However, boy was I wrong and underestimated the amount of food provided. By the time we finished the sandwiches and were working on the scones, I was already starting to feel full. So once we got to the desserts, I was already struggling a bit haha. Overall, the experience was a really pleasant one and I enjoyed my time here :) read more

Brooklyn High Low is a phenomenal experience. Went this morning with a friend and it was really the perfect special thing to do- especially during covid times. The outdoor heated covered seating is so well done and has such a charming ambiance. They have great protocols in place to make it feel extremely safe. Tables are extremely spaced. From start to finish the service is excellent and we so appreciated the hospitality and warmth of everyone there. Not only is the setting and all the teapots / tea cups beautiful, but the food is delicious! And there was so much we couldn't even eat it all! Loved the smoked fish and truffle chicken sandwich. Biscuits with lemon curd, jam, and clotted cream are to die for. I will be recommending this place to all my friends - thanks Brooklyn High Low for creating such a wonderful place to relax, catch up, and eat amazing food. I only wish I found you sooner! read more

Perfect place to have afternoon tea (or tea for brunch, in our case). Large and comfortable outdoor area, but I prefer the smaller indoor area with its comfy armchairs and quirky decor (although harder to reserve). We did the Classic tea set, with wonderful savory finger sandwiches, and delicious scones and sweets. Only downside (compared with other afternoon teas in the city) is the inability to choose your tea with the lowest priced tea sets. However, the black tea that they do serve is delicious and has unlimited refills. read more

The vintage decor, cute space and amazing service better than the plaza tea service. Love the variety choices of tea and sandwiches. Worth every penny and experience read more
I came here for a friend's birthday and it was a great experience. The chai tea and food were delicious and surprisingly very filling. My friends and I enjoyed eating the same sandwiches at the same time so we can talk about our thoughts on each one. I suggest getting different teas from your friends so you can try all of them since it's bottomless. read more

The whole restaurant is gorgeous and covered with all different kinds of trinkets. I sat in the garden and it was nice and warm but covered from the direct Sun.

Absolutely Amazing!! My sister found this place and we decided to check it out just for the experience. Wow! The staff is so friendly and helpful! The teas are AMAZING (Chai is my favorite) and the sandwich selection is varied with something for everyone and substitutions available for dietary needs. Some of their teas are available in their sister store and if you really enjoy the sandwiches, they can be ordered to go a la carte. I think the experience is better on the weekend but well worth the price! read more

I absolutely totally adore this place. I came across Brooklyn High Low on a Google search for afternoon tea venues, and I'm so glad I came across this. I wanted to surprise my bf for his birthday, and the experience went above my expectations. Very cute venue with super cute dishware and pots. The food and service was phenomenal. A+ all around and especially perfect for a special occasion like this one. I came with a small group of 4 for the prefixe Grand Heights tea service. This service includes a bottomless pot of tea for each person, a small cup of soup (we had butternut squash that day), crumpets and scones with jams and butter, as well as a sweets and sandwich tower for each couple (around $70 pp). I also ordered a bonus cake for the end ($8). For tea, we each had the Scottish Toffee, which I highly recommend by the way. The aroma of this one is :chef's kiss: and the flavor is nice and nutty with a hint of subtle sweetness. The scones and crumpets were scrumptious with all the different jams and butters. I especially liked the lemon curd and herb butter. As for sandwich tower, we all really enjoyed the variety of sandwich fillings and particularly liked the cheddar and branston pickles and the cheese and guava sandwich. The sweets included some macarons, chocolate covered strawberries, mini cannoli, and chocolate mousse. The bonus cake for the end was for our birthday boy. A nice addition for those who want to make the whole service feel extra special. I thought the food, service and ambience was just superb. Everyone was super sweet and helpful in terms of service. The variety between sweets and savory food kept the whole experience interesting and fun. I highly recommend this place for a special occasion, or any occasion you're looking for afternoon tea. So far this has been the best afternoon experience I've had. My guests would also agree on many points. read more
