Afternoon Tea At Park Plaza Riverbank

although the weather was not great, the employees were amazing and intentionally amazing. had a great time

It was a fantastic place to visit with a stunning view of London. As a tourist, I truly enjoyed my time there! While the prices can be somewhat high, I believe it's definitely worth it.

What a fantastic way to kick off our vacation in London! Located on the 12th floor, we enjoyed breathtaking views of the Thames, Westminster Abbey, and Big Ben in the distance. Joia welcomed us warmly and attended to all our needs and questions. It was a delightful experience! View menu

What a fantastic way to kick off our holiday in London! On the 12th floor, we enjoyed a stunning view of the Thames, Westminster Abbey, and Big Ben in the distance. We were warmly welcomed by Joia, who was attentive to our every need and answered all our questions. It was a wonderful experience!

The sandwiches were quite dry, as if they had been prepared in the morning and left uncovered, rather than being freshly made. There wasn't as much variety compared to other afternoon teas I've experienced before. However, the selection of teas was excellent, and the view from our table of the Houses of Parliament and Westminster Bridge was absolutely stunning, which helped to compensate for the lackluster food quality.

the location offers a breathtaking view of the river, but the afternoon was very bad. the hotel staff on the ground floor seemed unfamiliar to send visitors. the food was dried and clear for hours we sent back when the sandwiches were hard. we had then replaced certain items and returned the tablet. even if the food had been good (what it was not) the tee was badly worth. but the tee (trink) was very nice and the waiter was very attentive.

The location offers a stunning view of the river, but the afternoon tea was very poor. The ground floor hotel staff seemed unfamiliar with where to send visitors. The food was dried out and clearly had set out for hours we sent our back as the sandwiches were rock hard. We then had certain items substituted and the tray returned. Even if the food had been good (which it wasn't) the tea was poor value. However, the tea (drink) itself was very nice and the waiter was very attentive.

The scones arrived 15 minutes later with the explanation that they were being warmed up. I suspect they were frozen scones that hadn't been given enough time to defrost and heat properly before being served alongside the sandwiches. It's also a warning sign when a restaurant is largely empty. This venue, capable of seating over 80 guests plus another 20 on the balcony, had no more than six patrons during our visit, including my wife and me. I've become skeptical about promotions on OpenTable, as they seem to originate from establishments struggling with business or lacking a loyal clientele—this particular visit was a 1000-point table offer. Overall, this was a complete waste of £60.

london is a city with great places to have the traditional English afternoon tea. sad, park plaza riverbank is none of them. at about £30 per person, their offer is so badly worth it is almost one. I had to ask her if it was a person. least afternoon tee for 2 for £60 should have 2 of each item. they had to get us some extra sandwiches, and the server admitted that he could see where I came from when I asked if this was for 1 person or 2. the scones came 15 minutes later. the declaration that they heated them up so they were warm. I think they were from a package of frozen scenes and they had no time to defroze and warm them to serve with the sandwiches. it is always a bit of a red flag when... View menu
