Orangery - Bracknell Forest

We had the English orangery in the afternoon tee for £28.50 and a rhabarb cream brûlée for £6. it was a little expensive, but the location was nice and the room was spacious. the afternoon tea set was average with some light hits and misses, but no stand-out bites. the cream brûlée was beautiful, but did not taste rhabarb. the first server we had was great, but the one who did the greatest part of the service was very slow and unstoppable. the bathrooms are outside the building and are not a pleasant experience.

Prince Gastronome. Originally built as a greenhouse, the designers of the Orangery quickly realized the flaw of adding an opaque roof. So what do you do with a conservatory where nothing can grow? You put down tables and charge an exuberant amount of money for tea. The Orangery lacked any competition, located next to Kensington Palace in the namesake park with the only rivals being trailer vendors serving fish chips and soft serve ice cream. The building was a baroque masterpiece, with a serving area towering three stories to the roof. Light beamed in from the ground-to-ceiling windows. When they built the AMC Pacer, the designers must have looked at the Orangery and said, "Yeah...read more
