The Davenport Lounge is an upscale jazz bar and lounge located within the Ritz Carlton. This venue offers a lovely atmosphere for afternoon tea, featuring delicious tea and a wide assortment of savory and sweet treats, including excellent crab and cornbread. The lounge serves premium cocktails and bites, with strong, delicious cocktails being highlighted in recent reviews. Guests can enjoy the elegant setting with live jazz music and occasional dancing, enhancing the overall experience.
The Davenport Lounge is named after the lounge's headliner jazz musician, Jeremy Davenport, and serves as the hotel's lobby bar that hosts twice daily tea service. It features a small stage above the dance floor, surrounded by a mix of seating options. Guests can indulge in a full bar, bar-style appetizers, desserts, English teas, and small bites. The atmosphere is made even more special by a professional harpist, whose lovely music adds a classy touch to the afternoon tea experience.
Recent reviews praise the friendly and professional service, with quick drink delivery noted. Guests have enjoyed the good selection of teas, although some mentioned the scones could be warmer. The only drawback highlighted was that seating for tea was somewhat far from the harpist, making it hard to see and hear her play. Despite a few minor issues, visitors are eager to return for the unique combination of the city's food and the traditional tea experience.
