The dining area is shared with the general lobby with drop in people. Although I made a reservation way in advance, they did not have my reservation and if I wouldn’t had my reservation number I’m not sure they would have seated us. The teas available were delicious the food was rather tasteless. Lots of creamy centers without flavor. Nothing substantial like mini sandwiches. Over priced for the food selection with mostly sweets that were so so. If you’re going, stick to the tea and maybe the sweet basket. Forget the rest.

I picked LondonHouse for a bridal party tea service and it was outstanding. They went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. The service was fantastic and the food was memorable. The tea service views can’t be beat either.

A different style of tea with unique savories and sweets. Most were extremely tasty and a couple flunked, but overall it was well worth it and a nice place to look out at the architecture. I would highly recommend it.

Wonderful afternoon tea. The reviews I read were not great but we had a wonderful time! The selection was yummy. The chocolate tea was super. Unlike the Drake, you get a savory and sweet menu of goodies. We made reservations and had a nice reserved table near the window. Nice decor and ambiance. I'd do it again.
