"Sandwiches are excellent – laser-cut rectangles of flavoured bread and impeccably sourced fillings. Tender classic Coronation chicken on olive-jewelled bread, is worthy of trying."
"The Thames Foyer room at The Savoy is the perfect setting for afternoon tea. A glass-domed ceiling floods the room with natural light and an impressive gazebo encasing a stone fountain full of pink flowers and greenery takes centre stage, to form an elegant winter garden."
"The Savoy's tea is served in the historic Thames Foyer, accompanied by a pianist playing on one of the hotel's traditional white pianos. Expect a selection of finger sandwiches, freshly baked raisin and plain scones, French pastries and Thames Foyer signature cakes, plus a huge selection of teas."
"The best afternoon tea in London for: Stretching out for a long afternoon beside the Thames."
"We agreed that the coronation chicken on olive bread was our favorite. The best part is that all of this is unlimited so you are welcomed to order as much as you would like."
"Afternoon Tea at The Savoy Hotel is a traditional affair, and the attention to detail is superb. The grand hotel, which re-opened in 2010 following a three-year £220m refurbishment, serves tea in the Thames Foyer, where guests used to enjoy dinner-dances."
"There's something incredibly special about sitting down for tea whilst essentially being serenaded by a pianist, and that's exactly what happens at The Savoy. Perched in the centre of the hotel, and underneath a stunning glass dome- The Savoy is another beautiful central London tea favourite."
"A little goes a long way and The Savoy really knows how to treat their guests. I would highly recommend afternoon tea here as it's the perfect setting for a celebration or even a romantic afternoon treat."
"You can sip your cup of Assam with the tinkling of piano keys in the background at the Savoy, which puts on a live pianist for its afternoon tea sessions. Portions are big — don’t forget to leave room for the pudding platter."
"Tea is wonderful innovation, for it combines all the delights of a traditional afternoon tea with some more substantial food, just like High Tea, and makes an excellent pre-theatre treat. Connoisseurs of tea will be spoilt for choice as the Savoy offers a distinctive collection of leaf teas."
