"This was our first visit to the Pettigrew Tea Rooms. We had a gift of a voucher for Afternoon Tea for Two. What a brilliant gift that was! We couldn't fault anything! Service was prompt and friendly, The menu was explained, on how to choose which sandwiches we would like, although the printed menu was quite clear, choose any four sandwich fillings and which bread you would like, choose fruit, or plain scones and which drink we would like. Later, we were asked to choose which cake we would like. We were also asked if we had any allergies that they should be aware of. The sandwiches were well filled and delicious, The scones were still warm and went down well with the clotted cream and jam and berries. There were also Petit Fours and shortbread biscuits to round that course off. We chose Darjeeling tea as our drink, as it is a favourite of ours and it came freshly brewed in two pots, which held enough for 3 cups each. We prefer our tea without milk, so those that have milk, would likely get 4 cups each. We both chose the option of a glass of Cava £7.50 PP). A nice start to the occasion. All this was followed by Cake. We were full, but it had to be done Lemon Drizzle for me and Coffee Mocha Cake for my wife. Ohhh, they were really, really nice. With each serving we were asked if our food was OK Yes it was! Having read the poor reviews, I find it difficult to equate their experience with ours. It's like others had visited a different tea room! Loads of tea leaves in the pot too! Well done Pettigrew Tea Rooms, will will return!"
