This is so far the best afternoon tea that we had, the place was beautiful, the service was excellent and the cakes were nice, the only downside was the savoury part on the middle tray, it wasn’t appetising as the goat cheese pie and the other one (pie rolls? taste was very ordinary and the tofu seems only mixed with sweet chilli sauce. But we appreciate as they accepted us with dietary requirements without any booking first. Other than that 2, all were fabulous, we especially love how soothing the instrumental songs were, and the friendly and gracious service by all the staffs, we will definitely come back next time. (The rating should be 4,5 but since zomato kept changing n not doing it an...
It has been just over a year and a half since we last visited The Signet Library in the heart of Edinburgh Old Town to attend the beautiful wedding of Ross and Vivienne. Step through the doors and you will notice just how welcoming and calm it is inside in contrast to the bustling Royal Mile. The Lower Library where the reception was held has now been restored to its former grandeur and reopened under the name Colonnades, which is a reference to the ornate, classical columns that grace the building. The tables have mirrored surfaces and are set with the finest bespoke silverware, some of which are original to the building.
We booked our table three months in advance, as this popular spot has limited seating. This was my fourth visit, and it has consistently delivered excellent experiences. What sets the Signet Library apart is its unique atmosphere. The afternoon tea is the highlight, featuring high-quality food along with a good selection of teas and champagne. The service is leisurely, allowing plenty of time between visits. A trip to the Signet Library is definitely worthwhile; it promises to be a special, delightful, and memorable experience every time.
we had arrived in edinburgh a few hours earlier to visit the festival and the military tattoo. we enjoyed the walk through the crowds that enjoy early afternoon entertainment on the streets outside and absolutely loved the contrast between radiance and noise outside with the raffinesse and the peace in this wonderful room. we were allowed a lot of time to sit down and between the curses in the wonderful cream tee. it was delicious and filling and the service of friendly people who knew their things and obviously liked their job.

I think it's pretty safe to say that any afternoon tea from now on will be no comparison to Colonnades. Fabulous service from the minute you walk in the door. Started off with an amuse bouche, then a selection of beautiful savoury dishes. Our festive treat included a game pie (WOW) a festive club sandwich, salmon profiterole, stuffing balls and a tasty apple wood cheese and chutney tart. Then came the sweets....all the delicious sweets! MUST TRY- you will not be disappointed!
Visitors can enjoy an evening tea at Colonnades in the beautifully appointed library, where they will experience a stunning and unique atmosphere. The attention to quality, style, and presentation is meticulous, with each item being rich and refined. It was truly a remarkable evening tea experience, comparable to those found in the finest accommodations around the world. The cost was definitely justified, and not as high as I had initially feared.
If you like Afternoon Tea, the one at The Colonnades will leave you speechless. From the elegance of the room to the highest quality of each and everyone of the little treats you are about to taste, everything is perfect. It is also quite filling, so make sure you take your time to savour everything. If you can, have some champagne with it and the experience will be enhanced.
Such a fantastic experience and afternoon. This was one of the best treats I have had in a long time, the venue, layout, staff everything was to perfection! The little treats from sandwiches to small tart-lets to scones and sorbet. This is something I recommend and will want to do again. Lovely helpful staff. Afternoon feeling like royalty.

I had an excellent afternoon tea experience with an impressive selection of items, not just the traditional offerings. Everything was beautifully presented, and the staff were charming and attentive. This is a must-visit spot for both locals and tourists.
Enjoyed a lovely afternoon here, a great experience and the setting something a bit different. Great service, great food, would definitely recommend.
