Bond St. Tea Rooms

Exceptional Tea Experience with Unmatched Service

There are tea rooms that make you feel like royalty and then there's the Bond St. Tea Room, a hidden jewel snuggled within the ornate corridors of the Radisson Blu in London. This spot invites you with an ambiance both serene and tastefully luxurious, a tranquility only briefly overshadowed by the trivial background noise of city construction outside its walls. Inside though, performers of hospitality such as Yildiz, Vivek, and Lucky ensure each guest's experience is nothing short of charming. Here, service is underscored by abundant warmth and personalized attention, from suggested menu choices to remembering your preferences across visits. The prosseco welcomes and canapés starter breathes elegance into what might otherwise feel like an opulent familial gathering.

The afternoon tea menu presents an indulgent parade of flavors, highlighting standards such as passionfruit crème brûlée and savory-sweet orange scones that garnered well-deserved applause. However, while enjoying the dance of sweet and savory, a touch more consideration for succulent sandwiches could lend even greater harmony to its repertoire. Richly accessible at its price point compared to grander, glitzier brackets in London, this tea room offers value as sweet as its desserts. What it lacks in immediate view, it compensates thoroughly with enriching experiences and customized attention—be it a simple surprise dessert for special occasions or accommodating latecomers without skimping on the signature grace. Bond St. Tea Room isn’t just an afternoon detour; it feels like a culinary embrace formed by kind souls who fashion sincerity with every pour and presentation. — Jasper Griddle
