About Bridges Lobby Grill at London House

Bridges Lobby Grill at London House offers a delightful, non-traditional take on afternoon tea, featuring a tower of sweet and savory treats. The lobby bar provides a civilized setting with low tables and club chairs, making it a cozy place to enjoy tea. The atmosphere is lively, with some background noise from the nearby lobby area, but it does not detract from the overall experience. The restaurant is known for its creative presentation of food items, which are fun and cute to try. The service is exceptional, with attentive staff who go above and beyond to ensure a memorable visit. One standout is the waiter Jax, recognized for his thoughtful and attentive service, making the day feel special. The menu includes a variety of teas, such as cherry blossom and spiced teas, served alongside a tower of finger food, desserts, and scones with fruit-infused tea. The duck confit remains the star of the spring menu, and the first flush Darjeeling tea is floral and perfect for the occasion. The restaurant features large windows offering nice views of the city. While some may find the open layout near the lobby a bit distracting due to constant check-ins and check-outs at the front desk, it does not significantly interfere with the experience. Guests are encouraged to request seating by the window for the best views. Overall, it is a highly recommended spot for a relaxing and fun afternoon tea, especially for those looking for a memorable and welcoming atmosphere.
