Lady Mendl's Tea Salon Reviews
This is the second time I've gone to Lady Mendl's this year and both times the food and service have been superb for me and the group I was with. For context I am part of a fashion club that goes out for tea in groups of 5 or more.
Yesterday afternoon I went with a group of 10 and the actual tea service was lovely, the staff were very attentive & helpful. The tea was fresh and the food was warm & delicious to offset the rainy weather of the day.

My first tea pairing experience, and it did not disappoint. The whole experience was elegant and refined, and everything was delicious!
Best choices of teas; great services, extremely comfortable setting

Lady Mendl's Tea Salon offers an exquisite afternoon tea experience in a charming and cozy location that feels like being in London. The friendly and professional staff create a lovely ambiance with excellent service. Guests are greeted by a welcoming hostess who shares the history of the tea house. The five-course tea pairing is a highlight, featuring unique items like the cold spicy watermelon soup and a variety of finger sandwiches, including the egg salad and a warm butternut squash and goat cheese crostini. The two kinds of scones served are as good as those found in England and are described as the best, especially when served with lemon curd. Desserts such as the vanilla crepe cake and 21-layered cake are light and tasty. The freshly brewed loose leaf tea is regularly topped off, and each course is paired with a different tea. Guests appreciate how the tea and food are paired so well, making it a wonderful place to enjoy tea with friends. The atmosphere is great, allowing visitors to forget the hustle and bustle of the busy city. The background music adds to the experience, and the option to take home what they cannot finish enhances the overall enjoyment.
