THIS REVIEW IS ABOUT AFTERNOON TEA (NOT THE HOTEL)This newly renovated tea room is beautiful, but the service and the food has become substantially worse. As this used to be one of my favorite spots, I was quite excited to experience this new tea. Much to my disappointment, there were only a few highlights to this tea. Sandwiches - the cucumber sandwich was fine, but nothing spectacular. The egg sandwich was nice. Avoid the ham sandwich. I don't eat salmon so I can't speak for it. The avocado sandwich (substitute for the salmon) was quite literally just mayonnaise, avocado, and white bread - it lacked any semblance of flavor. Their new version of the coronation chicken was perhaps the worst disappointment - it was less than mediocre and nothing like their wonderful, old recipe. Overall - the sandwiches lacked flavor and were a bad start to an expensive meal. There was also random bits of crust on many of the sandwiches. Tea selection - extremely limited tea selection. I recommend the jasmine pearl tea as I find it to be a classic floral, green tea. Unfortunately, all of their teas came in prepackaged bags - so they do not serve loose leaf tea, and you can definitely tell the difference. Scones - I found them to be gummy and a bit dense. However, they were served warm and the accompanying homemade strawberry jam was fantastic. Pastries - laughably cheap and disappointing. We received the vegan desserts as most of their other pastries contain gelatin made from fish which I do not eat. I must say the coconut sorbet was one of the most delicious desserts I've had at tea. Further, the shortbread cookies served with the fantastic, high quality chocolate were they only reasons I did not give this tea a one star review. But, other than that star, the pastries were bland, room temperature and unexciting. Aside from their flavor, they lacked any sort of visual beauty. Service - lacking. We routinely would wait 15 mins or more to ask our waiters for more water or tea. Additionally, when our tea was brought out, they only brought mine and one of my companion's tea, but they did not bring my other three companions teas. The tea was never refreshed without asking. The sandwiches and scones were never refreshed until we saw a busboy who said he would bring us some more. This used to be one of my favorite spots for tea. In the heart of Mayfair at a classic hotel, you expect perfection - unfortunately, their new version of afternoon tea does not deliver. I would never come back here in its current state. Until they change their chef, I will continue to visit my other favorite spots.
