Colonnades At The Signet Library

The best afternoon tea I have had anywhere, absolutely delicious. Service was excellent and I will return. I could have happily stayed there all afternoon.

excellent hearty and sweet food. there was also a good selection from a lot of tees and coffee. drink options were also available to make the start special.

Absolutely amazing, the best afternoon tea in Edinburgh by far! It never disappoints and the Christmas menu was particularly amazing and the presentation is beautiful! View menu

Each element of the afternoon tea was uniquely and beautifully crafted. The atmosphere was friendly and relaxed and the staff were very attentive. Great for a special occasion.

THIS LITTLE RESTAURANT WAS STUNNING, THE ATMOSPHERE WAS VERY CHILLED. THE STAFF WERE FRIENDLY AND WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND TO MAKE SURE YOU WERE HAVING A LOVELY TIME. FOOD EXCELLENT. WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND. IT FELT VERY SPECIAL.

I had an excellent afternoon tea experience with an impressive selection of items, not just the traditional offerings. Everything was beautifully presented, and the staff were charming and attentive. This is a must-visit spot for both locals and tourists. View menu

Visitors can enjoy an evening tea at Colonnades in the beautifully appointed library, where they will experience a stunning and unique atmosphere. The attention to quality, style, and presentation is meticulous, with each item being rich and refined. It was truly a remarkable evening tea experience, comparable to those found in the finest accommodations around the world. The cost was definitely justified, and not as high as I had initially feared.

we had arrived in edinburgh a few hours earlier to visit the festival and the military tattoo. we enjoyed the walk through the crowds that enjoy early afternoon entertainment on the streets outside and absolutely loved the contrast between radiance and noise outside with the raffinesse and the peace in this wonderful room. we were allowed a lot of time to sit down and between the curses in the wonderful cream tee. it was delicious and filling and the service of friendly people who knew their things and obviously liked their job.

We booked our table three months in advance, as this popular spot has limited seating. This was my fourth visit, and it has consistently delivered excellent experiences. What sets the Signet Library apart is its unique atmosphere. The afternoon tea is the highlight, featuring high-quality food along with a good selection of teas and champagne. The service is leisurely, allowing plenty of time between visits. A trip to the Signet Library is definitely worthwhile; it promises to be a special, delightful, and memorable experience every time.
