Woburn Place - Camden

I took my daughter for afternoon tea at Woburn Place on a Saturday afternoon and the first surprise was that the restaurant was completely empty. Sadly it made what should be either an elegant or cosy occasion a little soulless. The afternoon tea itself was ok except that for the two of us there were three “finger” sandwiches with three different fillings (9 “fingers” in all). The fillings were fairly standard but all the bread was white and didn’t seem to be particularly good quality. The cakes were rather nice and unusual with small triangles of cheesecake. The scones were lovely and crumbly. Good choice of coffees and teas. The staff were very friendly and efficient. I think if they had seated us in the lounge bar area, which we saw other people directed to, it would have been a nicer experience.

Came here for a quick bite before attending a nearby Xmas Carol concert and was pleasantly surprised by the cosy, festive ambience and varied menu choices. Whilst seated on a comfy sofa, we tucked in to tasty fish and chips followed by a chocolate mousse pudding, all washed down with a fairly decent glass of house red, £30 ish for two with a gourmet card offer of 50% on food only. Not bad! Would definitely come again.

This restaurant is in a beautiful room, but they aren't always open. My colleague and i went for dinner at 6 pm and told they did not open until 7 pm (odd). We were let into the restaurant at 7 pm, and 15 minutes later we were told that they were not open that night. No reason given. If you can't trust that a restaurant will be open when they say they will be open, why go there? Skip this, you just don't know if they will be open.

Excellent place. Outstanding staff. All this reflects on fantastic work of managers in this place in particular Bogan or Bogdan can't remember well. My wife wants us to go back asap. Many thanks

An afternoon celebration which ticked more than a few boxes! Fantastic set up, service and the food was delicious. 5 star treatment! The staff were approachable and extremely accommodating. I am gluten free and it was the best afternoon tea I have ever had and the rest of our guests thoroughly enjoyed theirs too. The table setting was beautiful. I posted decorations in advance and the staff did a fantastic job in creating the wow factor when we walked into our reserved area. Nothing was too much trouble and I couldn't have wished for a better place to host my sisters baby shower. Thank you.
