The Hanseatic brew was so subtle so fragrant it needs no cream, no sugar. I learned here tea is made wrongly by almost everyone. Milk and sugar is to disguise bad quality and ignorance of technique. Wow. Life changing. They don't kick people out but people stay the right length of time because no wifi, it is a place for true tea lovers. Clean toilet. Excellent cakes too, high quality, special rhubarb types. Clotted cream scones. Just perfection here. The Brits have nothing on the Hanseatics. Wow.

Nice place with an incredible amount of tee choices. A little bit overprice but I suppose they…read moreshield behind the tee quality. We ordered gyokuro tea, really nice, but almost 8€ for 400 ml. It's ok, the tea worth it. But it came as it was, just the tea. No sweets, no mochi, nothing. I mean, we enjoyed it a lot but if I'm paying 8€ for some tea it would be nice to get some "extra care". Anyway, the atmosphere was calm and friendly and it's really a perfect spot for enjoying a good book. They also have a decent choice of cake and sweets. I recommend it but only if you're ready to pay a lot for good tea. And just the tea.

You'll be filled to the royal brim with sandwiches, scones and cakes, as well as as many pots of tea as you desire from a collection of 30 mostly black teas during your two hours there. Great fun and afternoon that, judging by our visit, mostly middle aged women with a taste for pretty things seem to seek.

(Sadly advance bookings cannot be taken for Sundays as I was told a couple of times.) There's plenty of British traditional food on offer like (tiny) scones, pies and all sorts of tea. Also quite a selection of home-made cake but be aware of the large slices, deary me! But everything's lovely and definitely worth the visit. It's a nicely decorated (sofa, candles, paintings, walls painted in green) tearoom that makes one feel at home straight away. You can easily imagine three old British ladies sitting there gossiping away idlely and sipping their black tea. Well especially now that it's getting autumn and dark outside, Lühmanns is a great place for an escape. A possible walk around Blankenese and the water is a nice bonus as to the area. As the previous folks said too though, staff are always oh so slow and prone to forget orders. However they have as yet never forgotten about the bill So bring plenty of time & patience (and maybe a good book) and you'll be perfectly happy. I'd recommend it especially to anyone anglophile.

I found this lovely little place by posting a question on the Yelp Hamburg page as I was looking…read morefor somewhere that did a high tea sort of spread in Germany. We travelled for over an hour and it took a while to find the place but I was so glad we made the effort. We arrived mid morning and as we were really hungry we got tea, breakfast and I had a scone. The breakfast itself was something I'm not used to simply because of the combination of food that we got. I did find it to be the norm in Germany though with slight variations, the plate had fruit, a warm hard boiled egg, some jam, fresh tomato and a very crunchy but yummy roll. We had English breakfast tea which was tasty. I'm not a cream person so I only had jam on my scone but it was nice. The building itself was old and very old fashioned with lots of pictures of the queen. Had a very British feel and it was lovely. Staff although friendly were very hard to find when you wanted them and I had to go looking when I wanted to order scones and when I wanted to pay. I will definitely go back next time I'm in Hamburg as we had a very enjoyable day. Had I not had to chase staff it would have got 4 stars for sure and I would still recommend this place if you want something old fashioned with a bit of charm and an English feel.
