We went Mother 's Day weekend so it seemed the staff was a bit overwhelmed. I 've only been once so can 't compare to other times. Because of that, we waited a while for a refill of tea and there was no water served. We didn 't get a teapot for the table which this is the first tea I 've been to that you have to wait for someone to serve your second/third cup of tea. Besides that the tea itself was excellent. They did give us a 'free ' mimosa. There was a wide variety of sandwiches and our young daughter had a special plate of cutout sandwiches that was super cute and she loved them. Some of the sandwiches were just ok but some were unique and surprisingly delicious. Scones were good, nothin...
We had a wonderful time enjoying High Tea with Gerri. Although we had made reservations in advance, one of our friends fell ill and couldn’t join us. Initially, we were informed that we would still need to pay for the absent guest, but we were later pleased to find that the extra charge was removed from our bill, which we truly appreciated. We understood that the preparations for the High Tea had been made ahead of time, and the last-minute change to our reservation was not their fault. The only drawback to our experience was being seated near a group celebrating a 9-year-old's birthday. This made for a rather loud atmosphere, and we had expected a more refined and intimate afternoon.
We ordered the take- away tea for three. There was a lovely assortment of savory sandwiches. There were three scones and some little deserts. On balance, we were pleased, but I would make two suggestions if you are going to do this: First, you may wish to order an extra serving on the scones, toppings for the scones and the deserts- or fill them in a bit yourself. Portions are dainty. Second, while the scones were all boxed separately, the remainder of each person’s serving was boxed together. This meant deserts were packed with fish and egg- filled sandwiches. There was some cleanup necessary at home. Would ask that the savories be boxed separately from the deserts.
This is really a fun place for celebrations or get togethers with close girlfriends. Galentines day would be fun here, too! We enjoyed the hats, food, and decor. The tea selection was great. Finger food could have been better with more of it. Enjoyed dressing up at home in pretty dresses and arriving to choose a matching hat that they have available in all shapes, sizes, and styles to borrow for the tea time. This experience can get pricey, and also service could have been more attentive with more refils on the tea, but we will be back because it is so unique. Réservez une table maintenant
We had such a lovely, perfect high tea today at Gerri's. Her rooms are filled with beautiful antiques, and her attention to detail is perfection. Every morsel was so delicious and fresh, and when we walked in, the aroma of the scones baking greeted us. Gerri and her assistants were warm and attentive, and we decided we will return for our birthdays every year!
We had a wonderful time at Tea with Geri yesterday. Geri and her staff did an excellent job making us feel comfortable and ensured that our tea was always topped up. The tea was hot and delightful, and the finger sandwiches and pastries were absolutely delicious. I highly recommend Geri's to anyone who enjoys a great cup of tea.
Instagram worthy! Charming atmosphere to get a spot of tea. Even better to enjoy it with your girlfriend(s). Service is attentive. Scones and desserts are delicious. Lemon curd is a must-have! Sandwiches could be better in quality and quantity. I've been there a couple of times and like the hats they offer their customers.
