A party of four went for afternoon tea.where shown to table where we ordered refreshments and a short time later a waiter arrived to take the order for tea abd i explained that we were waiting on drinks to which he replied you have to leave the table in two hours. He then left and i ordered the tea from a different waiter. The tea came and the waiter did not know what flavour of tea was in each pot. Tha sandwiches came eventually and the tea was cold .One finger sandwich per person and filling was a disappointment ham & cheese how exciting. No savoury food arrived so for the price i wont be back.

We had afternoon tea here some time ago, and this time I think the food was definitely not as good to that excellent effort. The Conservatory was quite full when we arrived and we were shown into the River Room part where there were only a couple of tabes being used. The savoury food was good with the coronation chicken sandwiches the stars but the sausage roll and the brioche and fritter weren't bad either. I asked for a couple more coronation chicken sandwiches and. the waitress said "I'll ask my manager" instead of saying "Of course you can". Anyway, a couple of sarnies were indeed brought to the table, thankfully. The scones were small and. a bit 'solid' and definitely not the best. Why orange and poppy seed scones were served along with the plain ones is a mystery. I would say all the sweet offerings were disappointing with the cookies very average with horrible cream on top, and the mint and lime posset really awful. The apple and fig tart wasn't much better. In all a bit of a disappointment, and really they could do better with a selection of different sandwiches instead of trying too hard to be different. The person responsible for the sweet offerings need to be switched to a different part of the kitchen as there wasn't one thing memorable on the cake stand. A nice touch was the little cake prepared for my wife's birthday, but sadly it tasted poorly. The surroundings were very comfortable, but this afternoon tea has lost it's way in trying to be too fancy instead of giving a selection of sandwiches of good quality, and failing to produce a decent scone. We are not likely to repeat.

Every Sunday our family used to meet at my mothers and she like all good country women brought out the best Delph and showed of her baking skills and those little sandwiches with the crusts cut of, Well, Galgorm was a pretence of that with a few different types of tea to choose from. None of the home baked goodies or fresh cream delicacies but certainly sweet enough. The conservatory itself could do with some ventilation on a hot day and a bit of shade would help. Way over priced but the staff couldn't do enough and are an asset to Galgorm.

I’ve had afternoon tea a few times over the past number of years in Galgorm. However I have to say I was disappointed when I took my mum just a couple of weeks ago. The service was excellent but the food was disappointing for the price. The small savouries were tasty but only one sandwich! In particular the sweet treats didn’t look or taste home made, we left most of them! There was no miniature soup or trifle/ cheesecake as previously. I remember the first time I walked into the conservatory I thought Wow because of The beautiful centre floral arrangement and decor but I’m afraid this time it all looked a bit tired including the furniture. Sorry, but I came away feeling let down and still hungry. Not what I expected for £42.50 per person!

Afternoon tea as part of a dining package. Staff were friendly and attentive. Savoury snacks were good and not in short supply. Unfortunately the sweet snacks were of lower quality. The macarons were grainy and dry, biscuits were like cement and the financier could have broken windows. Pleasant enough experience, though maybe wouldn't repeat if it wasn't part of the overall deal.

We had afternoon tea for three during a spa visit. You won't find lovelier, more attentive, friendly staff anywhere. They made us feel like royalty and nothing was too much for them. Emma was an outstanding member of staff and she looked after my elderly mum as though she was a queen. The coeliac food was excellent, not many places provide good gluten free afternoons teas, but the Galgorm's Conservatory is one of the best.

We had a lovely afternoon tea in the conservatory when we arrived at Galgorm. The room is warm, cosy and welcoming. The staff were exceedingly friendly. One lady in particular was very attentive and found us a nice window seat by the water. I hope I'm correct in calling her Juli. She served us for breakfast in the conservatory the following morning. It opens earlier then the main restaurant. There is a buffet starter with al la carte served at the table

My husband and I had the afternoon tea in the conservatory today. We usually aren’t the biggest of fans of afternoon tea but we gave this a chance in of our dining package and it was absolutely phenomenal. Every single part was delicious and so beautifully presented. The staff were lovely and the wonderfully talented man playing piano took it to another level with the amazing music. The conservatory itself is stunning and so beautifully decorated. I’m not usually a big tea fan but I tried mint tea and loved it and my husband loved his. I was especially delighted to see how much my husband enjoyed it, as we booked our stay for over the weekend for his birthday. I have never been to an afternoon tea that made me want to do it again at a later date but I can say I have been now. I recommend this to anyone

Always love afternoon tea here. This was part of a family gift. Nice selection of sandwiches and treats. Can’t give 5 stars due to asking for a top up of tea which we never got, normally I can get through 2 pots of tea anywhere I go for afternoon tea so disappointed that the service wasn’t up to normal standard for Galgorm.

Afternoon Tea at the Galgorm on Saturday past was such a disappointment. Seriously not value for money. The hot/savoury selection consisted of 5 small items and 1 finger sandwich followed by 4 sweet treats each and scones. I have had afternoon teas in other establishments at half the cost and they were far superior. The pictures on the hotel's website certainly does not depict a true picture of what they serve.

Was excited for afternoon tea as it was Halloween theme. And my friends birthday and she’s never had afternoon tea before. Lovely window seat overlooking the window. Man sat us down and straight away asked for allergies then said someone will be with you shortly! Not a great greet to say the least. A lovely blonde lady in a Navy uniform came to take our order and explained everything to us was so friendly. The savouries were nice however the beef was so so pink almost raw. We waited 25mins for these to arrive. The same lady asked me if I wanted more tea or coffees, iced coffee, so we decided to go for iced coffee I didn’t realise you could go for iced coffees which was great. Then chatted a little with us. The sweets was great for the theme and loved the middle course of the chocolate graveyard. Another lady with glasses with a tie and waist coat that brought the sweets was so lovely she looked exhausted with a red face and looked as if she hadn’t a minute while the man that seated us was stuck to a laptop. The 3 ladies made my afternoon tea a wonderful service great sweets.

So the Wimbledon men's final was being shown in the conservatory as part of a special event along with afternoon tea. Wifey decided to book as we both love Wimbledon and the afternoon tea at Galgorm. I have to say the whole afternoon was exceptional - this was maybe helped by such a great tennis match as well! The food menu was delicious and everything served at a perfect pace throughout the first couple of sets of the match - there was a choice of prosecco or Pimm's on arrival. The only down side was that unlike the regular afternoon tea at Galgorm there was no other tea or coffee on offer other than regular tea and filter coffee. I mainly drink coffee and I have to say it was not good and left a poor aftertaste. I was also hoping that a range of teas would have been available as I do like a green or mint tea. As the match went on we were given extra champagne and some snacks including nachos and dips. This was much appreciated! The service all day from staff was excellent and watching the game in that setting was very relaxing and such a great experience. I hope this event is on again next year as I would book right away!

Went to The Conservatory for an Afternoon Tea. Have to say it was underwhelming. Bland and totally not what we were expecting. Didn’t like the fact they left so many expected afternoon tea items left out of the menu. Having to ask for butter, no soup, and being presented with an over baked slab of Victoria Sponge at the end didn’t excite. For a five star hotel it was quite boring, predictable and the room was so warm it was uncomfortable. At one stage I was so warm I felt sick and had to ask for the staff member to open doors. Really? In a 5 Star hotel? Service was ok and staff helpful. We were just expecting more and disappointed. Wouldn’t book again and certainly not worth £41.50 a person.

This came in 2 stages. The savoury of sandwiches, and a taster of soup, sausage roll, mini wrap and camberert cheese on toast was just the right amount. The sweet stage was beautifully presented as a set of drawers. It was too much to eat at the sitting so the server put the remainder in a small box for us to eat later.

My husband and I decided to treat my daughter to afternoon tea as a special celebration. We were given a choice of times and we choose 530pm. The conservatory was a little chilly and my husband kept his coat on the entire time.The tea was served in two stained stainless Steel teapots.The curry soup was delicious but sadly the bread on the outside of the sandwiches was dry so obviously they had not been freshly prepared at that time of the day. The next course was very disappointing. We associate traditional afternoon tea with award winning freshly baked scones and clotted cream etc. The scones were hard and we were given one Small portion of Jam and whipped cream for 6 scones! We did not ask for more jam and cream as the scones were hard and so 2 were left in the bottom drawer of the cake stand and the other one at the side of my husbands plate. I’m not sure what portion of cream and jam would have been given for two people!We were not offered the scones to take home and we certainly would not have availed of that offer. The cheese cake was tasteless and served at room temperature. The chocolate dessert was delicious as were the macaroons. I’m afraid I would not be rushing back to Galgorm Manor for afternoon tea. This afternoon tea should be very special for such a beautiful venue.

The fact that there is an ongoing pandemic and they can still maintain this standard is just incredible and a credit to them. Thank-you

Lovely setting in the conservatory overlooking the river. Staff were very attentive despite being busy. Afternoon tea selection was very good, probably one of the best selections we have experienced, especially the savoury choices.

I really enjoyed the food served for afternoon tea, the selection was fantastic, from fresh sandwiches and the pork pie was something different to try, the scones were warm and delicious and the range of sweets were amazing. The river room was a lovely place to sit and have afternoon tea with views all around(just not on a hot day)

Why wouldn't you? Try some gins, hear some stories, learn something new. A lovely way to pass the time. We are waiting on him to make his own gin. #JordansGin

My wife had recently undergone surgery and this was her first outing since a few trips to the hospital. She loved every moment of it and the food / staff were just what the doctor ordered. X

We ate Afternoon Tea here while staying in the hotel. It was part of our package. We were on a mini moon as we got married last weekend. Myself and my husband are both gluten free and we were given a fantastic selection. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience of the afternoon tea and would highly recommend it.

My daughter and I had afternoon tea in the Conservatory on Saturday and really enjoyed it. We chose the gin afternoon tea, which was excellent! We have had afternoon tea here several times and as always it was a very pleasant experience. The service was very good and the live musical background was an added bonus.

We had a wonderful time celebrating our parents' 50th Wedding Anniversary at Galgorm. Afternoon tea: the food was delicious and beautifully presented, served by such a lovely waitress who was so accommodating. We thoroughly enjoyed tasting the exotic range of teas and were overwhelmed by Galgorm's kindness when they upgraded our parents' room to a suite. Every member of staff whom we dealt with were generous with their time, friendly and exceptionally welcoming. A beautiful hotel set in majestical grounds with the tranquillity of the River Maine running past as you enjoyed your tea. Absolutely perfect. Thank you Galgorm, we will be back!

As a choice between the tasting menu or a lá carte, we went a lá carte. Service was excellent and menu interesting. The tasters were very good with the warm bread with our starters went down a treat. The amous bouche had a totally different taste to our cod miso starters. Mains were lamb and beef both done to our order, pink and medium with good flavour followed by desert for me with coffee. Excellent setting with service and well done to chief and staff, a really enjoyable meal and experience

The food in here is incredible - and the service was amazing. They accidentally got someone's order wrong and really went out of their way to correct it. Definitely going back.

We've visited Rose Cafe many times and haev never been disappointed. They do a tasty fry, really lovely coffee and tea, and an amazing selection of homespun Sunday dinners! Highly recommended. Every time we go, we're stunned at the great value for money. The icing on the cake is the friendly owner, who shows she's glad of the business and always make us glad we dropped in.

Ordered two flat whites and got two mugs of something not remotely similar to flat whites. Undrinkable. Please sort out your coffee, pipes or something.
