The Observatory

Terri Law

I love the observatory however on this occasion the two young blonde waitresses that served us could have been more polite and attentive. We also asked for a drinks menu twice and never received it and had to go to the bar and order the drink, for the price I paid I expect better service. The afternoon tea itself is lovely however I would like options when it comes to the afternoon tea rather than it being a set menu as such. The stand I find very sweet and maybe customers would rather have more savoury things than so much sweet, pastries etc or a mixture of sweet and savoury. Please just give customers options rather than substitutes on theyre stand especially for the price. Not everyone eats the same thing.

The observatory is a special place at Christmas, tastefully decorated with panoramic views of the city. We enjoyed a festive afternoon tea. the scones were light and warm, the mince pie pastry was short and buttery and credit to the pastry chef as the desserts were delicious. Improvement required on the savoury side of things, sliced pan finger sandwiches with minimal filling is not what you expect from this establishment or for the price. The staff were very pleasant and helpful.

Great staff, fairly good cocktails. However, you are paying a premium for them. Considering the view, it's worth it.
