We were seated for an hour and 20 minutes before our food came, which is pretty inexcusable since the menu is premade, limited, and set. The restaurant wasn’t busy either. There were maybe 5 other sets of diners in a restaurant I would say seats around 100. There was little the wait staff did to rectify it too. When our tea pots went cold, we weren’t even given a fresh pot. They just poured hot water over the old bag. After around an hour, we were offered a scone though. Our daughter’s princess tea tower came out first, and it was clear she was so hungry she was going to down the whole thing in 5 minutes, which worried my mother and me as there was no sign of the tower we had ordered. I made her stop eating, and our tower did arrive about 10 minutes later. The food was excellent, but we were so stressed by the long wait in a nearly empty dining room. I wish I could say we enjoyed ourselves, but I won’t return.

Tilly’s Tea Room is simply marvelous. I have been there twice now. It’s an extremely classy place to go to. I love the restaurant decor. I have ordered the high tea both times I have gone. It’s wonderful…….the tea tastes delightful and the food is simply amazing. I would definitely recommend you to go and experience high tea at Tilly’s. I feel like I’m In London England when I go there.

We were very disappointed with Tilly’s. It was very overpriced and the food was just ok. One of our party is gluten free and the sandwiches were open faced and not a whole sandwich. It seemed like a much smaller portion than the non gluten free tea sandwiches and there is an additional cost for gf. It is also very confusing as there is no outside signage for the tea room. The decor inside is cold and modern. We definitely were underwhelmed with the whole experience.

Celebrates my mom’s birthday at Tilly’s. It was a great experience. She loved everything. It was her first time experiencing an afternoon tea! I’m appreciative I could spend this experience with her!

Oh my goodness, this place is beautiful and the 2 staff ladies were just lovely! We all really enjoyed our food and tea. My friend enjoyed her Diet Coke:) We ordered the traditional tea for $45 and a couple of other items: Chicken Velvet Soup and a Chicken Salad Croissant. Everything was very yummy-the egg salad, the cucumber sandwiches, and the soup. The tiny desserts were yummy too. A fun place for everyone, but it is a very quiet and beautiful place, so maybe not for a time when the kids need to run around and be energetic. Please go. You don't have to have tea. It's just a sweet, lovely experience for a luncheon or an afternoon break.

Definitely a cute place for girls to hang out. Service was good. One waitress seemed she needed more training though. She talked too quietly I couldn’t barely hear her even though the place was quiet. First she bright out soup without a spoon so we had to wait for it. She served us a tea spoon, not a soup spoon. Food came out but she forgot to give us a plates. We had to waive at other waitress for the plates. Food was just ok but teas were excellent.

My sister in law and I went in for afternoon tea. We were immediately sat and greeted by our wonderful server. She was amazing and gave great suggestions on teas and finger sandwiches to try. We split the afternoon tea and were stuffed when we left. Great experience! We both want to come back again.
