The afternoon tea with champagne was excellent. Perfect service, faultless catering of cakes and scallops really was a lovely birthday treat for my husband. The added bonus of a surprise birthday treat served with a greeting message was very well received. Thank you Savoy x

Excellent atmospheric brasserie right in the heart of London, the set price menu seems to be good value, I had an excellent and very tasty, large, piping hot mushroom soup and a chicken main course, that was perfectly seasoned and extremely tasty. Efficient friendly service; I will certainly come again soon.
