The Pendray Restaurant at the Gatsby

Excellent service and a unique atmosphere that provide you with the incredible experience of an afternoon tea in the best Victorian style.

Had a very nice afternoon tea. Yummy scones with cream and jam.

We had a great time celebrating my daughter’s 11th birthday- kids menu for tea was great.

I had high hopes for my experience at this restaurant. The cozy cottage aesthetic reminded me of something out of the Cotswolds, and I was expecting a peaceful and intimate atmosphere, akin to being in an English garden. However, upon arrival, our reservation was overlooked and we felt unwelcome and ignored. The host seemed disorganized and understaffed, rushing us to a less desirable table. Our West Coast High Tea was underwhelming, with some dishes lacking seasoning. The server was pleasant, but the overall experience was disappointing. I would recommend opting for the pricier High Tea at The Fairmont for a more enjoyable and worthwhile experience.

My mom and I have gone to high tea at other establishments in our travels. We both loved the Pendray High Tea. She ordered the West Coast (more seafood based) and I ordered the Traditional. Both teas were delicious, the options for alcoholic beverages were plentiful. The staff was attentive but not pushy. The ambiance was amazing! I’m so glad they’ve kept the original architecture of the house. There was more than enough food, we each took a couple desserts home since we were stuffed!
