The table next to us received one correct order and a wrong order. The wrong order was removed, and 10 minutes later the correct one arrived. Those people turned to us and said they did not realize we were still waiting for lunch. I considered asking for the check and leaving, but my cousin really wanted her order. We believed it couldn't be much longer. We stopped another waitress and she went to check on things for us. Seems they lost our order. Eventually, cousin's open face chicken and cheddar arrived and my bisque. I would have enjoyed more water, but decided it was not to be.
When we received our check, I did discover my tea was not the one I ordered, hence the unappealing flavor.
As we left no one was at the desk or I would have discussed this with them.
We were the only ones in the original tea room, when we arrived. Our waitress took some time getting our order, but our hopes were high. We ordered hot teas. When they came we asked if we could have our scones while we waited for our entrees. Other people had arrived and were seated in our room. Their orders were taken, teas and food arrived for them. We continued to wait. My hot tea was not "right" and tasted bitter. But not to delay lunch I asked the waitress to remove the tea items. I asked if I could please have more water, which was filled once. We were still waiting for our scones at this point. Finally, the scones arrived. We enjoyed them with the hope that lunch would follow. People around us were served, ate and were leaving.
Too bad, this experience was my second poor one here. I had hoped it could revive and be a go-to-place to take friends and visitors; As it had been in the past. This unhappy experience happened another time with my husband therefore he declined to come today. Thank goodness.
I went here for my first time ever, being on the cape my whole life I figured I should try it out since I've never been to a tea room either. I had heard very good things about this place and was not disappointed. When I first walked in, I was seated by Bailey, who was very pleasant. I was also happy to know that she would be my waitress and she was very accommodating and very kind, she asked us how our day was going and seemed very genuine. I ended up giving her a very gracious tip. All in all it was a very good experience, and I will be sure to visit again soon.
I was so very disappointed today. I took our cousin to the Dunbar Tearoom for what I had bragged about, being a wonderful and delicious experience.
Just what I needed - English style afternoon tea. It passed the Brit test no problem (took tea outside as weather was splendid).
Even in this week of Christmas lunches, we were seated immediately, although the parking lot was nearly full. On this sunny December day, the mood in the tearoom was cheerful. Apple butternut bisque was perfect. Quiche was good, and a scone or princess cake made a sweet ending to a pleasant meal.
This is a review of the Windsor tea. As Teas go, I was impressed. The presentation was very good, and the sandwiches and baked goods exceptional. All four sandwiches were delicious, the chicken salad exceptionally so. And there was much more food than I've typically seen at an afternoon tea. All in all, a very pleasant visit and recommended.
