About

Afternoon tea is the main draw, with vegan savory and sweet bites designed to echo the standard menu; one guest praised the generous portions and separate savory and sweet servings. Set among the Signet Library’s fluted columns and old books, the two-hour service feels unhurried and polished, though reviewers describe it as an expensive treat.
