Excellent High Tea
I can highly recommend the afternoon tea at the Arbour Restaurant in Bournemouth. The restaurant and garden areas are very nice - we sat in the garden area which was very quiet. You are close enough to walk to Bournemouth town and beach but it is tucked down a side street so is quiet if you eat outdoors. The afternoon tea itself was very nice. I quite liked the portion sizes - didn't fight to finish the scone which I'd normally do!

Enjoyed our afternoon tea at the Green Hotel Bournemouth. Everything was nice and fresh and plentiful. It was a lovely present for two and I would recommend the Green Hotel. Anyone wanting a lovely Sunday roast although I didn’t have one they looked and smelt amazing

Cream tea in Bournemouth
Very busy, got there early and waited in the bar, very relaxing .Good staff and the tea was great to much for us to eat so they gave us a box to take home. The only slight problem was the shortage of car parking, but it was busy.

Cream tea
We had a fantastic afternoon. The tea was lovely. The scones were the best I’ve ever had . Service was excellent we were looked after from start to finish even able to take uneaten scones home in a province box . We were even offered more jam and clotted cream to take with us . I would thoroughly recommend. We also had a look at the bar menu when we were there and will be back for lunch soon .

Good food, very attentative staff
Took my 88 year old mother here for afternoon tea, the food was very good and the staff were also very good, the outlook of the restaurant was not the best, overlooked the car park, but the experience was good, and more important my mum enjoyed the day.

Wonderful Afternoon Tea
We were given a warm welcome on arrival and shown to our seats. Then we were served tea and a selection of cakes with scones. Everything was delicious, looking as good as it tasted. Lovely quiet atmosphere, no problems with parking and terrific customer service from excellent staff made for a wonderful relaxing afternoon out.

Amazing afternoon tea at a quality restaurant
We had no idea that The Green Room even existed but are pleased to have found it! It's a really nice restaurant in pleasant surroundings. The afternoon tea was to die for. I'd go as far as to say... the very best scones I've ever tasted & we've had quite a few from here to Devon. My wife, Mim found a tea she liked which we are planning on buying online now for her to continue to enjoy. The staff were pleasant and friendly. Attentive without being overbearing and were helpful throughout our stay.

Very nice tea. Scones and sandwiches were excellent. Cakes were a little disappointing. We were shown to a table near the kitchen with too much disturbance, We brought friends so was apologetic to them.

Lovely afternoon tea
When we arrived we were greeted by really friendly staff and shown to our table. Within seconds were asked what drinks we would like and if we had any food allergies. We were then given a plate of sandwiches a selection of delicious cakes scones and desserts. the chocolate chip scones were amazing they were warm 😋. The only downside was we weren’t asked for the voucher and didn’t know what to do until we were called back when we left which was embarrassing cause we felt like we hadn’t paid.

AFTERNOON TEA AT THE ARBOUR RESTAURANT
Overall the experience was good. Service very good and a table was prepared for our arrival. The tea was good apart from the sandwiches which were excellently prepared if a little unimaginable. However this may have been due to me requesting certain items to be omitted and replaced with an alternative. Scones were delicious and the chocolate ones very unusual. Also the little doughnut. Unfortunately there was not much atmosphere as only one other table was occupied but not their fault.

Excellent Afternoon Tea and extremely good service The Lemon Curd is the best I have ever tasted and the strawberry shortcakes were delicious. Not sure about the chocolate meringue though but that is just personal taste. Could not fault it.

Disappointing afternoon
Table not ready on arrival., had to stand and wait. Bread finger Sandwhices were dry and stale with only a scaping of filling.also poor choice of filling and No choice of brown or white. Weak tea, which got cold very quickly. Scones and cakes were delicious, jam Was poor with no fruit. Very poor experiance for something that should be spacial.

The tea was warm rather than hot. The scones were wonderful. One of the cakes (with chocolate top) was friable, and crumbled as it was picked up.

Disappointing
Basic sandwiches, limited cake and supermarket donuts. This was a real let down. It felt like a conveyer belt operation, with the same sets of food sat on different tables. Sat by the back of the hotel next to storage doors and an area that needs a deep clean, this was the wrong kind of afternoon tea experience.

Awful!!!
Unfortunately our afternoon tea experience was pretty poor. It took a while to be acknowledged by the reception staff as two of them were having a disagreement about where tables would be placed for a Christmas party that evening. We were then told to wait in bar area where we were forgotten about for 30 minutes. The food was ok, the water in the tea was not hot enough so went cold literally minutes upon pouring. Poor service and overall really sad that my bday gift wasn’t as expected.

Basic
This was overall one of the worse afternoon teas I have experienced. Two bite-sized treats that had the texture of soft toffee and a shop-bought doughnut each. Sandwich selection was rather disappointing but great for vegetarians. Scones were OK. Not value for money as the only edible item were the scones. Good service when there was actually staff in the restaurant. Would not recommend.
