Best High Tea – The Tea Room

BY JENNIFER LUU

Teatime at this historic inner-city location is a genteel, napkins-on-laps and pinkies-raised affair, conducted with elaborate ceremony and pomp. Located in what was originally the Grand Ballroom of the Queen Victoria Building, The Tea Room still retains all of its old-world glamour and quaint charm. There is a nostalgic atmosphere about the room as guests enjoy high tea or an a la carte lunch among crystal chandeliers, gilded mirrors and ornate columns. You’ll feel like royalty as you engage in light conversation over a cup of Orange Pekoe and a crustless cucumber sandwich. Lvl 3/455 George St, Sydney. 92837279. thetearoom.com.au
