What a great experience we had exploring the sets of friends

We really enjoyed our afternoon teas. Service outstanding, food fresh and plentiful, doggy bag to take home as we were full up.

A lovely afternoon looking out across the Birmingham skyline on a bright sunny afternoon. The afternoon tea was so plentiful that we could not eat it all and had to bring some home! Plenty of hot tea, with refills on request. Would highly recommend.

afternoon tea

I can’t begin to say how happy I was celebrating my husbands birthday at Taj 51! The Indian Jasmine Afternoon Tea was so delicious . Made even better by the wonderful service we received . The staff were not only very friendly but were extremely thoughtful in making our experience unforgettable. Thank you !

The day out was great in all respects. But we had been given a gift and could choose anything up to the gift price. We knew we had to buy the experience before Sunday, but thought, due to all the BuyaGift pages saying, 'valid for a year', that once noted it was valid for a year. No. The experience had to be taken by the expiry date too and that's not made clear enough. Luckily we had decided to do it now so did not lose out. It costs £20 to extend the voucher. So I'd say, don't bother with an open voucher that can be used for anything, get the experience itself. Added to which, I was emailed a load of cheaper offers for the same experience but couldn't use them as I had been given a gift voucher. It was all a bit frustrating, but the day out, seeing the animals and tea were great.

Had a lovely tea yesterday in such a beautiful setting. We decided to order one savoury (for which there was a very small additional supplement) and one traditional afternoon tea as we couldn't decide which to have! We really enjoyed both and shared them. The staff were very good and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Make sure you allow time to walk round the lovely grounds before or afterwards as parking is £4 for 8 hours so you may as well make a day of it!

One of the best we had the same gift last year which we enjoyed immensely so much so that we decided this could be a yearly event Not only was the afternoon tea good but the hotel and gardens are one of the best roll on next year
