Afternoon Tea at Prestonfield

★★★★★

“Expensive (especially with our weak Canadian dollar at the moment) but worth it. Luxurious setting, proper but not too stuffy, so beautiful. The staff were all incredibly welcoming, solicitous, and helpful. The high tea was tasty and bountiful. Truly perfect. (And accommodating- I let them know about some food allergies at the last minute, and they made sure I was taken care of.)”

“One of my favourite places in Edinburgh. A true hidden gem in the heart of the city with stunning views of Arthur’s seat. They have a peacock, cat and highland cows on site too. Staff were lovely and the aesthetics were perfect. Will be definitely visiting again!”

“This place is absolutely lovely. The staff is professional and accommodating, the interior is breathtaking, and the grounds are well-kept. Peacocks stroll around the garden, adding to the charming vibe. The tea service was exceptional, having a wide range of complex flavors, both savory and sweet. I enjoyed the rhubarb tea, and the glass of champagne was just the cherry on top. I was pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere of the toasty room, which boasted great decor. They have multiple rooms with different decor suitable to every taste. I would highly recommend this place for your afternoon tea, whether you’re alone or with company.”
