The scones were good, the tea was good. Unfortunately the service was pretty pathetic. We got served our food after about 15 minutes (not unreasonable, but it was only tea and scones). Then, after eating, we sat around for at least 40 minutes without anybody asking us if we needed a check of if we were doing alright. Finally we had to flag down our waitress to get her to notice us (this was on a fairly slow day, mind you). We then wait 10 minutes for the girl to pick up the credit card, and then decide to just go downstairs and pay at the register. The girl gives us a look when we try to pay at the register, and then hands the card over to another girl, who ran to the back to run it through the machine before tossing it at us with an attitude. Not the worst thing in the world, but give me a freakin' break. Probably won't go back unless it's unavoidable.

Pros: Good tea, good scones

Cons: Servers are pretty ignorant
