Roast review by Sue Harding

I was taken by a friend when they were doing a two for one offer on afternoon tea. it was a Friday, and we decided to have the £24 champagne tea. This involved a glass of champagne to start. We then chose our teas which were brought in cute little pots. They brought a three layer cake dish. On the bottom there were masses of absolutely fresh brown and white assorted sandwiches, cucumber, egg mayonnaise, tomato and coronation chicken. On the top layer there were four freshly made warm scones with clotted cream and home made jam. We only managed one of these. On the middle layer, there were a couple of mince pies, some chocolate pots, some slices of home made almond cake and a very good home made carrot cake.

Apart from an initial mistake on the bill, charging us the full price, which was quickly corrected, we decided that this was the bargain of the year, with service the bill was £27 for two. During the day there are super views of the Borough Market downstairs which makes it even more fun. Unfortunately they only do afternoon tea from Monday to Friday. Without the champagne, this is still only £15 a head, which is much cheaper than a lot of other places.
