Summer of Afternoon Tea

The Afternoon tea was fresh and a very good selection of savoury and sweet.would have again.it was a gift from my granddaughter.

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.

afternoon tea was lovely staff were very nice

We had a set 2 course on Friday 6th Feb and we enjoyed our very tasty meal. Choice was a little restricted but the meals and desserts we chose were delicious ?????? service was good and meals were served quite quickly. We were pleasantly surprised that the portions were of a good size and we ended up very full so we can recommend this offer. There was a discretionary service charge of 10% but we were happy to pay this. The deal we bought was good value at a renowned chef ??????

The gift was brilliant. We opted for the three course meal rather than afternoon tea option as we both love steak. We ordered sides to go with it in addition but think just the three course meal would've been plenty. The staff were brilliant and there was a nice ambience at the Birmingham restaurant. The food was lovely and I wouldn't hesitate to go back again!

Food and service was amazing, and there was so much we couldn’t eat it all, and took some home

It's a great place for afternoon tea. A blend of old and modern. A beautiful building

We had a fantastic day at Shawsgate Vineyard. The tour was extremely informative and the guide was knowledgeable and entertaining. The lunch consisted of cheese, ham, salad and bread with a delicious cheesecake for dessert. There was no choice, but the food was good. The wine tasting involved quite a lot of wine, and we were able to choose a glass of our favourite for lunch - something to consider if you are driving! I would highly recommend this!

This was a fantastic experience my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed. I had several pots of tea and my husband had many cappuccinos. We had extra sandwiches and then couldn’t eat all our scones and cakes but they were boxed up for us. The staff were friendly and attentive. I will go again

Great little gift. Staff lovely and no extra costs. Something a little different

A lovely place with generous afternoon tea and great variety of teas and cakes.

A lovely afternoon tea at the Taj Hotel in a beautiful surroundings. I booked this as a surprise treat for my husband, and the attentive staff made the experience even more special. The vegetarian options were excellent, the food was generous, delicious and beautifully presented. We also appreciated being able to take the remaining food home.
