    Victoria sponge cake and hot chocolate

    TYPE: not a true tea room but rather a British style cafe serving lunch to the crowd from Royal Free hospital. FOOD: I think their strengths are the Lebanese dishes. I had Victoria Sponge cake & hot chocolate, since I only wanted a snack. Hot Chocolate was spot on. The cake was pretty good. AMBIENCE: they do need a makeover, but the people are very friendly and after lunch crowd, I had place almost all to myself, so I could use WiFii and get some work done.

    Was in Camden town and wanted tea-- found this place in the basement of the Stables Market (when…read moreyou walk down the stairs past cereal killer cafe, turn left and do a u turn, look for "oi oi the shop" and keep walking, it'll be at the end). Their afternoon tea was for two people, and as just one person, the server recommended the cream tea and adding in a savory. I chose the pate (because I love pate!) over the sandwiches. I was pleasantly surprised that the server created a mini stack for me. The tea was quite flavorful but the scones were a bit lacking. Of the 4 tea places I went to this week, these scones were the driest. Even covering them in jam and cream wasn't enough--I wanted to dunk them in tea. The pate was delicious though, came with lots of toast, as well as fresh sliced cherry tomatoes and cucumbers. I also loved the fresh fruit (strawberries and cherries), and lovely marshmallows. Venue was also pretty cool--lots of visitors to people watch. Would recommend location, but skip the scones!

    This place was the highlight of our London trip! For just €18.50 (TOTAL FOR 2 PEOPLE) we got…read moreeverything pictured! We chose the English breakfast tea which was great. The scones and clotted cream were beyond amazing, and the sandwiches were great too! Only con is that this place is hard to find, but that's not their fault. After wandering around for like 30 minutes we finally found it. Go inside the market, go down the flight of stairs past the cereal shop and into the basement. Look around past all the clothes and bags for a bookstore, and past the books you will find the tea shop!

Perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside! Served quite warm as well. Pretty alright tea finger sandwiches overall; the cucumber sandwich had a nice lemon zing to it though the smoked salmon sandwich and egg sandwich had bread that was a bit on the stale side. Regarding desserts, the raspberry macaron was very tasty and had a great slight chew to it but the red velvet cake was pretty dry. There were more food items at the tea service but I'm just highlighting the most noteworthy ones. :p For tea I had the jasmine lychee. Satisfyingly bold lychee taste! Recommend if you want something bright-fruity with slight tartness. Service was very polite and all-smiles but could've been more attentive. I'd say I would return here mainly for the tea and the scones!

    We had to get a spot of tea in London and Candella was truly a fantastic experience. We had a…read morelittle mishap with running behind our resy + then slight miscommunication from staff which led to our table being given away. The owner was so kind and apologetic and was generous enough to comp the whole afternoon tea. We were just happy to get a table! Luckily the London weather in December held up surprisingly well and we snagged a table outside. You can't beat this price! For about £25pp, you each get a choice of tea, and 3 tiers: sandwiches, scones, and desserts. The warm cheese sandwich and smoked salmon sandwiches were delish. I absolutely LOVE a scone and it was everything I could hope for and more. (I could eat the whole thing of clotted cream!) The owner truly made our tea feel so special. I def recommend checking this place out compared to the bigger dept stores for a more authentic feel.

Then it took some time to find the right venue. Need to go through the door in the middle of sculpture exhibition hall, across the garden, enter the other building door. Do not get confused by many other food choices (coffee, hot meals, cakes or others). It's on the left side of entrance with reception table for you to check in. There are 3 options, depending on whether you need to celebrate anything, with price varying at £30, £35 and £38. You will get 5 pieces of sandwiches, 5 pieces of sweat and the your choice of tea. I chose traditional one, English breakfast with milk and sugar.

There was a choice of tea or proseco or both to go along with the savory and sweet tea sandwiches. It was pricey, 30pounds, but I wanted to splurge a little. Caution, I emailed my request for reservation twice, they never got it. We had to wait until some other party who had a reservation did not show up for 45 minutes after their appointed time. Worth the wait. Make sure you double check your reservation. There were empty tables, but they do not take walk ins as there is only a certain amount of food prepared depending on reservations. The museum was fun to walk around after tea.

    Long-time listener (viewer), first-time customer…read more I've long-since been informed and entertained by the Mei Leaf YouTube channel. Visiting family in the UK, I had to stop by - and I was not disappointed. I had a very pleasant Pu-erh, but was blown away by a burst of black tea, with malty goodness! Both were of great quality, smooth and yet bold, but not too much so. I was coached expertly through everything from price-point to taste, to 'this is the best one for the in-shop experience' versus 'come back another time for this one, but on this budget, I'd go for this' and it made me want to spend my money there way as I felt like my tastes were listened to and my limitations financially acknowledged and not dismissed. The very cheapest on the menu were not recommended over higher, of course, but the low range was never left when I said 'under 10 pounds' -- I was never recommended a tea above it. I was helped by two employees eager to allow me to enjoy the teas on my own but very happy to discuss them almost as a friend would. In fact, I got chatting to one employee in particular, just about intellectual matters, as is fitting for a tea house. Jeremiah and Vine (Vinny?) were incredibly helpful as I'm sure are all those working at Mei Leaf. I recommend a visit when in London!

Opted to wait on the second cake, due to lockdowns arrival was a little longer than originally estimated but not by much. When items were back in stock got an email advising me of product availability and asking if I wanted to add anything to the order. Decided just to have the one cake shipped. International shipping from London to Los Angeles was only about a week for each Shipment. Items were packed well and arrived safe and sound. Large selection on their website, reasonable prices, fast secure shipping, outstanding customer service. Highly recommend provider of high quality teas. Can't wait for a trip to London to visit the shop in person.
