Lydia BerkennouOctober 21, 2015Make sure you are hungry before coming here! Delicious moist cakes, a wide choice of quality teas and a great place to spend the afternoon. Walk around the garden and Hyde park. Perfect to digest
Elynn LeeDecember 28, 2017Note for afternoon tea: if you order 1 tray of pastries per person, it is a LOT of food. After we ordered, we noticed that everyone else was doing like 1 tray for every 2-3 people...
Kim PhamDecember 5, 2016The most perfect place for afternoon tea. Cheaper than hotel options in town and infinitely more beautiful!
RaquelNovember 6, 2014First time having afternoon tea. The place is beautiful, with view of wonderful Kensington gardens. Food and service were excellent. Good value for your money.
Osh Stag Von SchloganNovember 27, 2012Have high tea in high season even without a res and theres a kids version as well. The honey is exceptional. Bit of a walk though, which is likely why isnt too crowded. Gold tea strainer 30£ @shop.
P Y WongDecember 18, 2017Very nice place. The lunch is better than the high tea, especially the braised beef. Heavenly!
Mo3athAugust 30, 2016Waffle and tea were average. The only special thing about this place is it's history and elegant design.
- AljoharahJune 7, 2016a lovely place to have your afternoon tea at Kensington Gardens! Highly recommended 👌🏻
Kelly HeungMay 3, 2015Good value afternoon tea. Excellent decor inside. Go early or you will need to wait for some time.
R B.G.January 6, 2018Amazing place but the food should be better (afternoon tea selections) it’s not very tasty
Ahdab MahdalyJuly 26, 2016Gota try their apple waffles .. Super delich and goes well with their royal tea
Eleonora CarisiAugust 19, 2013Have a lunch inside also if is a sunny day...you can feel the real & elegant atmosphere! Try salmon Tartare!
Shamsa AbdulrahmanDecember 24, 2015Nothing really special about afternoon tea. The tea selection was good tho and the space was beautiful. Don't forget to book
Rafa AJuly 17, 2014Excellent place to bring family and friends who are visiting London. Try the wild berry tea.
Martin TiedemannMay 20, 201220 August: Designed for Queen Anne by Hawksmoor & Vanbrugh in 1704, the modern Orangery is a restaurant, set among beautiful lawns and offering champagne breakfasts, lunches & elegant afternoon teas.
Lisa NuskeFebruary 10, 2014Such a beautiful end to a visit to Kensington Palace with high tea at The Orangery...won't break the bank & everything was delicious!
Yiling DingMay 10, 2015Good for afternoon tea. Nice scones and mini sandwiches. Also good for tea with champagne.
Ellin SharapovaApril 5, 2013Classy setting but got smell. It smelt like urine @_@ I guess if one really wanna try go for high tea. The lunch sucks. Fish soup unfresh, roast chicken in weird sauce and cod fish also not great.
Bobby KennedyAugust 21, 2015Beautiful location to get afternoon tea service, especially if it's nice enough to sit outside.
Tormod VærvågenMarch 20, 2013A wonderful room, good small dishes, superb service. Try the afternoon the served after two o clock
Mihnea MiculescuJuly 25, 2016Go for high tea - or when it's warmer, just wing it and get a coffee on the terrace.
Raad GSeptember 2, 2015Very nice venue, however the amount of food was not enough for the afternoon tea.
Wadha AKA Wodi The LegendNovember 2, 2016Great afternoon tea. The scones were really fresh and delicious!
- Lee HartJuly 16, 2018beautiful tea room in the middle of Hyde Park, lovely for a spot of afternoon tea.
stoptrafficclothingOctober 30, 2011take afternoon tea on the terrace, overlooking the beautiful gardens in the summer - pimms and strawberries and cream - what could be nicer?
InsaAugust 24, 2010Waiting to be seated - at this place it is worth it. The scone is just lovely. Good place to stay for a while. Relax and enjoy!
Emily HansonMarch 22, 2013Food a bit on the pricey side, but good none the less. Beware, pigeons may be flying around

"Amazing art! This memorial goes some way to explaining how Victoria felt about Albert – it's so different to what you would normally find in London. Mesmerising."

"Perfect size of exhibition, not much, just relaxing."
