Buckingham Tea Room

It's the third time I have had Afternoon Tea at this quirky yet delightful Buckingham Tea Room and, as always, have been suitably impressed. Even if you go for the more traditional menu, just being transported away to a different time is worth the experience.

You will always leave feeling like you just ate at a 5 star restaurant. The Buckingham Tea Room is a small restaurant serving some of the most excellent food I’ve ever had, and is very affordable. I can’t recommend it enough. Everything is homemade by the owner and chef, who is extremely talented. Book in advance every time you go - whether you’re just going for tea and scones or if you’re going all out with the Afternoon Tea experience. It’s very easy to do on their website! Worth it to ensure you get a table. Their scones are light and delectable, both the savory and sweet versions (highly recommend trying both kinds). Their tea options are vast and they’re all of the highest quality. The cakes and sweets have no business being as delicious as they are! And they are presented and decorated in such a stunning manner. You can go for tea and scones, or you can get the Afternoon Tea which includes tea, scones, and a variety of small savory dishes all served on tiered stands. If it’s your first time visiting, I really think you should get the Afternoon Tea so that you can try many of the things that they offer. The small savory foods that I’ve tried there have been some of the best foods I’ve ever eaten in my life. My favorite tea is the English Rose, however the Chai is also excellent! I’ve tried most other types, but these two always stick out. I could go on and on about this place, and talk in detail about every single insanely good thing I’ve eaten here, but instead of doing that - you should just go on their website and book a table as soon as humanly possible, and then you’ll just know what I mean. If I could give this place 10 stars I would. Visit as soon as you can, and as often as you can!

I have never been here before but after checking the reviews I thought it would be a nice place to take my daughter for afternoon tea for her birthday. A lovely quaint place with friendly staff who welcomed us. We chose our tea and our first plate of food came out and we were told what was on the plate. In all we had 2 single plates and then a cake stand with 4 plates on. Not a sandwich in site a lovely twist to afternoon tea. Thoroughly enjoyed it and would definitely come again.

Absolutely 1st class enjoyed the food the atmosphere and the staff are truly fantastic and presentation also 1st class. Thank you for a lovely afternoon today.

Wow what an absolutely amazing place , how I’ve walked past it so many times without going in heaven knows . Well today I planned to visit from a lovely welcome from Andy the service was brilliant and the scones melted in my mouth absolutely delicious . I will certainly be a regular visitor going forward and bringing my friends . What an absolute treat you won’t be disappointed .
