    A friend and I tried Lady Camilla for the first time and loved it. We had the High Tea, which includes an entree outside of the tea service. I had the spinach and mushroom soufflé and she the beef pie. Both were tremendous. The tea service was as well with a variety of scones, croissants, macaroons, custards, etc. We had leftovers to take home and enjoy later. The service was attentive as well - refill of water and hot water for the tea. We loved our experience so much, we’re planning our next outing here.

    This was a repeat visit an was again totally delightful. The sandwiches and pastries are so delicious- and generous. I love that you can select not only your tea preference- but also your food selections. Wonderful experience.

    Lovely tea shop that offers an extensive tea menu and excellent, fresh-baked pastries. Pretty china, a view of the river, and soft music create a charming ambiance. Service was polite but relaxed (slow, inattentive). We look forward to future visits.

    Lady Camellia provides a true European “high tea” experience with its interior decor, place settings, and selection of teas and delicacies. The noise level was appreciatively quiet so we could hear each other at our own tables. The staff were very cordial and friendly. An excellent experience!!!

    If I had to share a negative it would have to be that was cold in the restaurant.

    Once we were seated, we had to wait about 15 minutes till the waitress came seemed they were a little understaffed, but they were only four tables occupied. However, once we were attended to everything else went pretty smoothly. Food was good. Tea was good and the waitress, although not particularly friendly did a good job
