The Tavern At The Henley Park

First, let's start by saying that the pictures are very deceiving. The tea experience was not what we expected.

The earl grey with lemon and Jasmine tea are absolutely lovely. I do agree that the venue needs soft music. But if you think about the time it takes to prepare these treats daily which they do (try it at home if you want to see the WORK it takes) the $60 is well worth it. It was actually a really nice way to wait out the rain.

It was a lovely afternoon tea. My only suggestion would be to invest in different teapots. It was next to impossible to pour a cup without tea dripping. It wasted much of the tea. Otherwise, very happy.

Hotel is lovely; a little bit of a hidden gem that I was completely unaware of. Afternoon tea was lovely and very good value. Will definitely go again.
