Afternoon Tea At Mar Hall

I would recommend skipping the afternoon tea at this restaurant. Given the price and the prestigious status of Marr Hall, I was very disappointed with the experience. It was a gift, but if I had paid for it myself, I would have been inclined to complain. The eating area was not very comfortable, with low, sagging chairs that made it difficult to reach the tray. The quality of the afternoon tea was underwhelming and I have had better for a much lower price at other places.

My experience at the restaurant for afternoon tea was delightful. The sandwiches were fresh, the cream tea was delicious (with great scones and Roddas cream), and the cakes were absolutely delicious and very fresh. Our waiter was attentive and accommodating, moving us to a quieter room when there were wedding preparations in the main hall lounge. He kept us well-supplied with tea and coffee and kindly packaged up the leftover cakes and scones for us. I would highly recommend this place and look forward to returning during our visit to Scotland in a few months to see our family. I did not give it 5 stars as it is slightly overpriced.

A group of four of us had a delightful time enjoying afternoon tea at this restaurant. The service was excellent from the beginning to the end, with plenty of refills for coffee and tea. We also enjoyed a nice bottle of wine. Everyone in our party had a great time and we would definitely visit again.

The afternoon tea at Mar Hall is bog standard. Iver priced in my opinion. You have to walk all the way up the hall to be seated rather than a member of staff approaching you. Its just very strange. No menus on the tables. Have to walk up to the desk to get attention from the waiting staff. Furniture has a very tired look. Carpet at the entrance and inside could do with a good wash. The afternoon tea is of a very poor standard and over priced.

So looking forward to this but was one of the worst afternoon teas we have had. Sandwiches were poor selection and quality of products was not great. Scones were mediocre, jam was not great quality. Cakes were very poor and selection was disappointing. No offers of refill of coffee. This was bought by my daughter as a birthday gift and was not a special offer or voucher.
