The Lounges in Three Rivers

We had a wonderful afternoon tea for two here at the hotel. Longer review under the hotel itself, but suffice to say- food was delicious- unlimited sandwiches and tea/coffee/soft drinks- staff were attentive- dietary requirements were easily accommodated- leftovers given to take home- wonderful relaxed quiet atmosphereHighly recommend, would definitely return.

What a great set up! Gorgeous rooms! And a lovely way to have a quiet drink, or a wind down, or a read of the paper or a good book...

Wonderful lunch for one. Great service and a truly lovely atmosphere. Most people are here having afternoon tea but i has a beautiful salad. I decided to have a dessert which was very large but tasty. Would certainly come again.

Vera was great as were all the staff. Felt very welcome without being overwhelmed. The food was great my partner is dairy intolerant and this was not a problem he did not feel his choices were limited at all. The knowledge if teas was impressive and not at all pushy. I would return in a heartbeat and if you are looking for a gift or special treat this is the place to come.

Perfect place to relax with a book or chill out over drinks. My friend and I had a wonderful salad, big portion. The cocktails however were bland and not particularly great, especially when one considers the price! Next time we’ll stick to tea...

An afternoon tea birthday treat, a wonderful selection of teas were offered, I could simply sit and sip tea all day long here. It was divine! A fine selection of cakes and nibbles, everything was superbly presented - simply exquisite!

Relaxed and beautiful surroundings. Stayed for hours just talking and relaxing. Cakes are amazing and the staff are wonderful. Scones were lovely and warm and very fresh. Can't wait to go back, excellent for a celebration.

El servicio era increíble! El personal podría haber hecho más por nosotros y fueron muy atentos sin ser molesto. El personal mantiene reponiendo los bocaditos sin ningún problema y nos sentimos relajados y listos para la fecha de la cena. Gracias (sirve a las 7pm sábado por la noche - lo siento no tome nota de los nombres).

Visitamos los salones alrededor de las 2 pm y estamos mostrado algunos sofás muy cómodos. Como siempre en el Grove todo el personal es muy educado y atento, y todo el lugar está siempre bien presentado. Nos ofrecieron una selección de tés, y un miembro del personal me explicó sobre cada té individual. Además nos ofrecieron una muy buena selección de sandwiches, bocadillos y como muchos como uno quería. Después de los sandwiches vinieron los pasteles que eran fantásticos. Todo lo que probamos estaba delicioso, y hemos probado que nunca habíamos oído tés de gracias a todo el personal y sus explicaciones de los tes. No sé mucho sobre los costos, porque mi esposa y yo estábamos siendo tratados por nuestra familia.

Great cocktails from the bar. Reasonably priced and lovely surroundings. Black Russian, Margarita, and a vodka martini. All well made and we were not pushed to have more. Lovely service.

Té de la tarde en los salones maravillosos en el Grove Hotel con un amigo y colega. Adoro este hotel y he tenido café y el desayuno en los salones varias veces, pero esta fue mi primer té de la tarde.Los salones son bastante único, con una decoración espléndida, muebles y obras de arte. Las habitaciones están interconectadas y difieren en estilo con varias habitaciones individuales y rincones. Ambiente y estilo increíble - realmente difícil de describir, tiene que ser experimentado.son perfectas - servicio nos cuidaron muy bien.El té de la tarde en sí era increíble, con un menú de té, que era muy interesante. La comida es de primera calidad y abundante. Los sandwiches maravillosos con unos segundos. Bollos servido caliente cuando estás listo para ellos con mermelada y requesón limón. Los pasteles realmente increíbles y puede tomar los que no comer casa en una caja. Mi amigo es necesario sin gluten (y también está embarazada) y yo soy vegetariano - ¡sin ningún problema y todo g estaba perfectamente hecho para satisfacer nuestras necesidades.Caro, pero vale la pena.

What a treat went for afternoon tea with a few friends ! The food was great and the service faultless. We had an amazing afternoon and can't wait to come back! Oh and the pastries looked and tasted fantastic Wimbledon here we come!

Tenía la más maravillosa de té por la tarde en el salón. Debe reservarlo y aunque un poco caro, merece la pena! excelente servicio y con un gran conocimiento de la gran variedad de tés y un impecable servicio, principalmente por Pedro! Nos sentamos en una zona casi privada de salón con vistas a los preciosos jardines con vistas espectaculares. Nada era demasiado problema y sin duda esperamos tomar el té! Había mucho que comer y nos ofrecieron una "doggy bag" con el resto que no podía soportar. la tarde perfecta.

El Grove es un impecablemente cuidado hotel y el servicio es de primera clase. Los jardines son impresionantes y los salones son un lugar maravilloso para tomar el té de la tarde.

Nos alojamos en el hotel y tuvimos la suerte de encontrar un lugar en donde sentarse a comer. Hay una extraña política en este hotel y no residentes domésticos parece reservar todo, así que no hay ningún sitio para residentes para comer. Esta fue la situación en nuestra primera noche. Había literalmente ningún poder ir a comer, excepto para sentarse en nuestra habitación y servicio de habitaciones. No es impresionante. Especialmente teniendo en cuenta la suma exorbitante precio nos cobraron para alojarse durante la Semana Santa.

A pesar de ser residente en el hotel, nos dijeron que no podíamos comer aquí o sentarse. Me quedé muy decepcionado con cómo nos trataron.

It seems you can no longer have a light lunch in the lounge as you have to make way for the afternoon tea bookings at lunchtime. Hover still a good place to meet and relax

In memory of a very special lady who loved visiting The Grove for afternoon tea and walking around it's gardens, five colleagues and I did the same.It was a delightful experience which began with a selection of different teas(or coffee) followed by lovely sandwiches of different fillings on different breads. Freshly baked hot scones served with clotted cream and a fruit preserve or home made lemon curd, followed by a beautiful selection of cakes and tartlets. As soon as we had finished the sandwiches, staff asked if we would like some more. The same with the scones and cakes. One of our group was vegetarian and another had a nut allergy which was dealt with great attention and thought. Staff were always on hand to make our experience special but not in an obtrusive way.I would highly recommend .Well done to The Grove for making this a lovely memory.

First visit.The whole place oozes special occasion: spacious, manicured grounds; elegant, characterful buildings; stunning internal decor; sumptuous lounges; friendly welcome; spotless WCs; etc, etc ...However, service was lackadaisical:- on booking, we were asked if it was a special occasion (it was, a birthday), but this was not acknowledged in any way on the actual visit;- we were given one cake stand between two, but it only contained one of everything!- we ordered champagne, but it was forgotten, so never served!!There were also quality/value issues:- tea was initially timed to perfection, but with no way of removing the leaves after steeping, stewed thereafter;- sandwiches were good but insufficient, so meal was unbalanced (ubiquitous complaint this), with insufficient savoury vs excessive sweet - like, I suspect, many guests, we left with some boxed cakes, but I bet no one's ever left with boxed sandwiches!!!Finding the place is needlessly difficult; they give two alternate postcodes, yet (stubbornly?) don't include the road of the main entrance in their address (once we finally had this, finding it was a breeze!)So, as an experience, just about OKish, but as a £30 meal, poor value.Might try the restaurant in future, but won't be having another afternoon tea

A voucher for Afternoon Tea was given to me for my birthday. On arrival there was huge debate about where we could sit. It was a very hot day. Eventually we were sat outside the Glasshouse where we were ignored for some time. My birthday treat was starting to feel like a bit of a disappointing day. Eventually someone came over and told us we had to move. The young girl who sat us there was new and shouldn't have done so. At this point I asked why every time I came to the Grove there was a problem!! The waiter could sense my disappointment and physically picked up a table and moved it on to the grass for us. At this point I was impressed. He was wonderful. More sandwiches and cakes that we could eat and a beautiful, sunny summer's day. A walk round the stunning grounds completed the afternoon.
