The Drawing Room

This is located inside a historic hotel. We came here for high tea in the afternoon and it is an amazing experience. The portion is giant for my small tummy that they already prepared boxes for you. The earl grey tea tastes great and the food makes me forget my stress. The atmosphere feels comfortable and nice for a girl's talk in the afternoon. Don't miss to walk around that there are tons of great portrait paintings in the hotel lobby.

A Tea Fit for a Queen! Or rather 4 queens otherwise known as The Golden Girls or Girl Just Want to Have Fun! We loved your Royal tea; what could be better than a sumptuous afternoon tea served with a sparkling mimosa! Delicious! The tea and the drink. From the savoury egg salad on a croissant to smoked salmon and dill cream cheese to the wonderful cucumber sandwiches then the piece de resistance the warm scones with whipped butter, clotted cream and simply delicious strawberry jam! Topped with berry crumble tarts, garnished with strawberries and blackberries, cookies, macaroons, mini cupcakes ! Your tastes buds will explode with flavours upon flavours! A true culinary delight!

Afternoon tea at The Drawing Room inside the Prince of Wales was an absolutely charming experience that exceeded all expectations. The elegance of the space is undeniable, deeply rooted in the rich history of the hotel. From the moment you approach the building, the Victorian style captivates you—it's like stepping back in time, in the most beautiful way. Inside, the tea room is tastefully decorated with vintage touches that carry through from the furniture to the table settings. Every detail, from the delicate teapots to the fine china, oozes old-world English charm. It truly felt like a classic English tea experience. The food and tea were simply amazing. Each tier of the afternoon tea was beautifully presented, from the exquisite finger sandwiches to the decadent desserts. The cheese and fruit plates were perfectly curated and balanced. And the scones? Absolutely to die for—warm, flaky, and served with all the right accompaniments. We were lucky to have Brooklyn as our server, and her service was nothing short of exceptional. She was attentive, warm, and added such a personal touch to our visit. At $55 per person, this experience is a true treat and worth every penny. If you're looking for an elegant afternoon tea steeped in Victorian charm, The Drawing Room at the Prince of Wales is a must-visit.

The Drawing Room is inside the Prince of Wales Hotel. We have been wanted to try their High Tea Service for a while, and finally we had the time to go. Our waitress was wonderful and explained the trays to us in detail. They have a limited options for tea flavours. Tea is served in large mismatched teapots, they looked very cool. The food tray had a variety of sandwiches and treats. Scones were hot and tasty. The smoked salmon and the cucumber sandwiches had a very thin layer of filling and were very dry. The egg sandwiches were quite tasty though. And the hummus tart was okay. Overall the ambience was lovely and charming. One comment, we ask the hostess for window tables when we arrived but we were told that we had to specify in the reservation that we wanted to sit next to a window. However, then I overheard the other hostess saying to another group who had requested for window table in their reservation that they can’t reserve a table beside the window. It was a bit confusing It also felt like they only set up the table when guests arrived. We waited and also saw few guests stand and wait for the table to be ready even though those tables were empty for a while. All in all, it was a good experience.

Absolutely gorgeous setting and delicious High Tea. Feels elevated and a step back in time. The Drawing Room is not very big but roses and friendly staff made a lovely atmosphere and great photos! $55 is high but the ambience is good. Food was good, flavours are good. So much food...

Extremely disappointed with our High Tea today. I made the reservation a week ago and confirmed it yesterday. I had specified this was a special occasion which they did not acknowledge (why they asked in the booking if they were not going to mention it during our visit, I just don't know). When we arrived exactly on time, they said they needed to "find a spot for us", this took a few minutes. Rather than putting us at a regular table, they tried to sit us at a coffee table which we declined. We are all over 60 and to sit like that to eat would be very uncomfortable. We felt like they thought they were doing us a favour by finding us a place. They then found the 3 of us a small table, even though there was a nicer table by the window that was being held for a group of 4 arriving in 45 minutes, why not give us that and save the coffee table for them?? The salmon sandwiches were extremely dry and the bread felt stale. Croissants were on the hard side but the egg salad was tasty. Desserts were nice but nothing that made us say "wow". The server went out of her way and had a special coffee made for one of us. She was also very pleasant and did what she could to make our visit nice. We paid $165, plus tax and tip, which was a lot for the amount and quality of food. It was all extremely disappointing.

We made reservations for the tea after accidentally finding it on-line. It was marvelous. Lots of scrumptious pastries and finger sandwiches and we also tried the charcuterie board which had more savory bits. The teas were very good. We would recommend for a ladies day out and some self-pampering

The afternoon tea was delicious and there were plenty of teas to choose from. We showed up 10 minutes early and were able to be seated right away. We called ahead to request gluten free for both of us, and when we arrived we got a bit of attitude from the hostess who claimed that we never stated we were both gluten free, which we did. Nonetheless, our server was kind and confirmed that they knew we were both gluten free. The tea and food came out quickly and met all of our expectations.
