We went here for afternoon tea. During our three days, we went to three different places for afternoon tea. This tied for first with another place. It was first for atmosphere by far! It tied for first for the tea, and it tied for first for food (first for regular, second for gluten-free). Service was first by a long way!

This was a bucket list trip. I can't say enough about how amazing the food was. They take gluten free very serious. I honestly didn't want to go back to America because they haven't figured it out like the Empress has. I'm so impressed. Can't wait to go back. Best tea service! What a beautiful experience. We really just stayed at the hotel for all of our meals. I love it there.
