We had Sunday high tea. Of our 5, we had a lactose sensitive person and 2x gluten free. With prior warning, the chef was able to accommodate our GF needs and minimise dairy. The teas are tasty, and the mix of flavours in the range of high tea offerings was excellent. Happy customers - 3 boomers 2 Gen X. Thanks.
