    Came here for traditional afternoon tea with a group of 4 and was very pleased! Service was very attentive, each person got their own choice of tea, and there were plenty of options for sweet and tart treats. The decor is very classic, and has an estate like feel to it. My one complaint is that some of the food options were not particularly flavorful, although very visually appealing. For example - cucumber sandwiches are a favorite for me when it comes to afternoon tea, and this one had almost no taste other than that of the bread. Additionally, some of the sweets just tasted like straight sugar and had no complex flavor to them. Certainly is a great place for a fancy afternoon tea, although a little disappointed with a handful of the finger foods I would return.

    Royal Tea Service for Two
    Fangfei L.

    My boyfriend and I came for the Royal Tea Service after buying a voucher on Groupon. On Groupon, it is $99 for Afternoon Tea for two and $125 for Royal Tea for two - only difference is two glasses of champagne. (You'll still pay tax + tip at the end) Definitely get the Groupon because regularly it is $148 and $178 for the Afternoon and Royal Tea for two respectively. We were able to get same day reservations within 2 hours of calling. The tea service came with two pots of teas and everything on the food menu each. We ordered the Pierre and Rotunda blends which were both good. I love rose teas personally so the Rotunda blend was right up my alley. Food-wise, we thought the scones were the best but the sandwiches were a bit dry. There was definitely plenty of food even for two people who hadn't eaten lunch. Ultimately, giving 4 stars because the service was a bit scarce. It was rather difficult to flag down a waiter for anything. Would still recommend coming and trying this place out for tea service.

    We came here for afternoon tea a few weeks ago and had a lovely time. The staff was professional and service was good. We did the traditional afternoon tea service for two people. I picked the "Garden of Dreams" and my boyfriend picked the "Sencha Superior" tea. I recommend both of these tea choices. Our afternoon tea consisted three tiers of small bites: -Tier one included: The mini sandwiches (e.g. mini lobster rolls, cucumber sandwiches, egg salad sandwiches, salmon lox sandwiches, and curried chicken tart) -Tier two included: Scones with butter and jams on the side, and assorted cookies. -Tier three included: Fruit tarts, macaroons, and other mini pastries. We were stuffed at the end and had a little bit of food leftover. The food was good and the experience was kinda pricey. We used the Groupon and we were able to save some money. Overall, not bad and give this place a try.

    Came here with 3 other ladies for afternoon tea service (themed with Downton Abbey) and it was excellent! Great service and our tea and tea set was brought out quite quickly. We dilly dallied for quite some time, just enjoying ourselves and never felt rushed - we were probably there for close to 3 hours! The tea service is normally $65 but we had a groupon, which made it so much more of a bargain. I had the Margaret's Hope tea, which is great if you are a fan of black teas, and I loved the scones. The only real thing I can criticize is that I mistakenly thought each of the scones was a different flavor, so I excitedly bit into the 2nd one only to be disappointed that it was the same as the first... but that's because I clearly can't read! We were stuffed at the end, which is kind of amazing to me because we had so much time to sit and digest. Definitely stop by if you want to have a leisurely afternoon tea!

    The short: afternoon tea was such a fun Sunday afternoon activity-- the tea, champagne and food were delicious & the ambience is so cute! The longer: we purchased a Groupon (TBT), because we'd heard amazing things about the afternoon tea at the Pierre. It didn't disappoint. We started with champagne at the bar. The bartender gave us some yummy bar snacks (olives, cheddar crackers & popcorn). When we moved to get seated, the bar and tables started to fill up. The service was great throughout, though. We got a comfy table for 2 and ordered tea and the afternoon tea food tower. My tea was AMAZING. It was a house-made rotunda blend of black and green tea. Seriously.. better than tea I had in London. The food on the towers was good- but I didn't love a couple of things. The salmon was a little fishy & some of the pastries were too dense... but the SCONES. Holy shiz. So good. The cookies, fruit tarts, scones & mini chicken salad sandwiches were all so, so yummy. I highly recommend this as a fun & different activity to do in NYC. I love afternoon tea and London.. and was excited to get to do it here!!

    The place is beautiful. Decorated pretty ornately, it exudes grandeur. We had reservations and our table was ready to go as we arrived. We were a few mins late bc of the train but the hostess was very accommodating. Our server explained the tea process and we ordered our teas. We tried one black tea with cardamom and another fruity one with mangos and strawberries. Very nice and refreshing. The pastries and snacks arrived shortly after. They were presented beautifully. The server asked us about any allergies and was able to accommodate all our needs. The mini lobster roll was the best along with the almond cookies dipped with powdered sugar. The mini Curry chicken quiche was good as well. Took pictures of all the treats. The bathroom was very clean and well maintained. The server was great as well and refilled our tea as often as we asked. There is a bar in the restaurant which serves great drinks to go along with your experience.

    My oh my! What a fabulous treat! Came here with an almost expiring Groupon that I had purchased months ago for a High Noon Tea Party. Invited a couple of my friends to join for an afternoon of la-di-da, pinky up, sofisticated fun! This bar is located within the Pierre Hotel across from Central Park East. EVERYONE SHOULD DO THIS! What a fabulous time we had just chatting and enjoying our petit fours! Very cozy lounge with a live pianist performing, wonderful and attentive waiters, beautiful experience. Will def do this again!

    Warm Cranberry scones that came with clotted cream, jam and lemon curd
    Anvita S.

    Great deal for afternoon tea with Groupon. The traditional tea service is $65 each and comes with cranberry scones, sandwiches, 1 pot of tea and pastries. The Groupon was $95 for 2! Favorites included the St James and Traditional chai, the creamy curry chicken mini tart, the chocolate layered pastry and almond cookie. The cranberry scones were warm and delicious but I would have liked some variety. They came with clotted cream, jam and a tart lemon curd. Overall a very enjoyable experience in a beautiful hotel.

    two glasses of champagne and a cocktail

    One of my favorite hotel bars in the city, Two E Bar never disappoints! The most friendly and hospitable staff in NY that always has me coming back! Cocktails are delicious and the live music after 6PM is a dream (no cover unlike some other popular hotel bars close by). Intimate and private atmosphere always makes me feel right at home. I'll be back and you should too!

    Called to see if I needed to make a reservation for a Monday afternoon. Chris at the bar mentioned that weekends it gets very busy and we should be fine. If you want to have an afternoon Tea experience, definitely try out Two E Bar/Lounge. Have been to the Pierre Hotel long time ago in the past and things have certainly changed. The Pierre is a beautiful hotel right across from the entrance to Central Park. Much need break for my mom who has been taking care of my sick dad for the past 6 months and this was a treat for her. Get nicely dressed up and have some time to ourselves as well as a break from it all. This was just perfect. Thomas was our server and provided great service- Walked us through the whole process of Royal Tea Service. Gave us good suggestions when it came to selecting our pot of tea. We went for The Pierre Blend and The Lapsang Souchong (Smoky Flavor) The three tier tea stand came out with Tea Sandwiches on the top. The Pumpernickel bread was a bit salty- Salmon was good. My favorite was the Spiced Chicken Tartlet Miniature dates & Babaganoush Crepe was creamy Middle tier had the scones and buttered cookies. Like using both the Lemon Curd and Devonshire Cream. Bottom tier had pastries-blueberry & raspberry tarts, macaroons, and chocolate madelines just to name a few. It was a hidden oasis for the time spent here. We were not rushed and Thomas came back to check up on us to see if we need more hot water. It is a level of sophistication that you definitely need to experience. Felt like we were in the grey room/parlor.

    Oh New York, you have me at hello every time. Especially Manhattan and 5th Avenue. There is always so much to see and do, as well as enjoy. Speaking of relaxing. Whenever you find yourself in Up town, say 61st & 5th Avenue, the Pierre Hotel and it's beautiful famous tea room is a perfect spot to rest your feet and dine on their amazing treats. Just a stone's throw from Central Park, this tea room extraordinaire is perfectly received. My visit in late November of 2016, was a great time to enjoy this hotel and this area. New York city was decked out in incredibly festive holiday spirit from sparkling lights to decorative Christmas trees and ribbons galore. It's such a wonderful joyous time to visit truly. Like a well traveled gal, I love luxury, but never want to waste my money. Luckily Groupon offers a deal for around $120 for a tea afternoon during high peak holiday hours, that covers two guests. Regular prices are typical $75 per person, plus tax & tip darlings. Walking through this super luxe 5 star hotel is such a treat in itself. With expensive furniture and exquisite designs, you know it's going to be an experience to remember. I called two weeks prior to my visit and made reservations, which are a must. Walkins probably won't find an open table. So take a few minutes and plan ahead. My Yelp friend and I arrived a few minutes prior to our reservation time, but we're promptly sat at a quiet table next to a gorgeous fireplace with holiday trimmings on and around the mantle. Our server took out tea order and within minutes had our food and drink out soon after. Sipping leisurely was so nice. Talking with my friend, delightful. Eating the Pierre' s house made sandwiches and dessert to die for. I wasn't starving when we went, but was hungry all the same. So I had my dessert treats wrapped up to go. I tipped 25%, and left with a happy experience. We were a little rushed for our time there. Hence 4 star rating versus 5. The hotel booked a last minute engagement party that condensed the amount of time we were allowed. So, not a big deal, but kinda unfortunate since I don't live in the area. But do come here for a visit and be pampered all the same.

We wanted to have after-dinner cocktails in a chill space, so we searched on our phones & saw Paradise Lost address via Google. We proceeded to walk down & was unable to find the establishment due to their being no front sign. After walking back & forth a few times, we saw another group walking towards the door & they confirmed the place. We walked inside the front door pressed a "doorbell" & lo & behold we gained entry after the previous group went inside. Definitely an incognito entrance. Once inside that door there is someone to greet you, & take your information. There is a forest/ grass/ jungle-looking foyer/ hallway we walked down to get to the next door. Before we knew it, we were near the "Paradise Lost No Vacancy" neon sign w/ an arrow pointing towards the snake-shaped knob door. It gets opened & a supercool speakeasy awaits.... Paradise Lost has mixed style table / seating arrangements throughout the place. A bar seating section, booth-style seating area, lounge- style seating area, etc. We got there a little after 7pm, so the afterwork crowd was in full swing. Paradise Lost has interesting atmosphere. At times a Gothic / Medieval Vibe, meets place w/ shipwreck decor, meets eleganct /club vibe w/ beautiful ceiling lighting, etc. Music played in the background. Staff are friendly, energetic, & attentive. We were pleasantly overwhelmed w/ the vast selection of tiki cocktails that were on the menu. Paradise Lost also have an intimate selection of snacks/ food menu items. This included Popcorn, Tater Tots, Devilled Eggs Rangoon Dip, etc. We ordered some cocktails served in unique tiki mugs & a bucket of popcorn to munch on w/ our drinks. The popcorn is flavored w/ Sea Buckthorn & Browm Butter, which gave it an special flavor profile. Our cocktails were well-prepared & nice & strong. Paradise Lost has individual unisex bathroom stalls & a communal vanity & sink area. The bathroom stalls have spooky voices coming from a speaker as you use the bathroom. I was so humorously taken aback, it had me laughing when I came out...Definitely a different thing to experience in the bathroom - lol. Before we left we watched one of the bartenders do a cocktail "fire" presentation for some patrons in a booth seated area. Wow.... Paradise Lost accepts walk-ins only, no reservations. Paradise Lost accepts groups of 8 or less, unless you are requesting to book the space for a private event. Ages 21+ paradiselost.nyc @paradiselostnyc Paradise Lost is open everyday - 5pm-2am.

Would definitely recommend to visit if you like gothic stuff and tiki bars.

The cocktails are absolutely beautiful -- well crafted, creative, and flavorful -- but each one will remind you that you're not exactly paying dive-bar prices. It's worthwhile, but the "overpriced drinks" vibe absolutely hits. That said: the interior design and ambience are amazing. The mix of antique-meets-modern decor, low lighting, and comfy couches gives you that classic speakeasy romance. If you appreciate aesthetics and vibe over cheap drinks -- this is your spot. If you want a night out that feels deliberate and special rather than casual and cheap -- Osamil Upstairs delivers.

I had the heir to empire and our lovely waitress asked for my favorite color and when the drink arrives, it came with a little coaster in purple! And it was strong without it being overwhelming. For the remaining of dinner, I had a red wine and it was a perfect choice for the meal. Our trip to New York was too short because we wished we had been able to go back and check out their live performances. The vibe if the place was moody and inviting and we wished we could have gone back! We loved the Broadway homage throughout without being tacky.
