This is such a worth-while treat! The food, atmosphere and staff is beyond. Cheslyn made our day extra special 🤍
Amazing food and atmosphere 💜 we were well attended and had the most amazing time with Cheslyn looking after us.
Best High tea in the mother city with Wiseman’s expertise to guide you through such a lovely experience 🧁🍰🎂
Beautiful experience at the Mont Nelson, a real treat and fantastic service from Asanda. Thank you 🙏🏻
We did the afternoon tea. Our waitress Thabisa was welcoming and very knowledgeable. She made the experience all the better. The food was excellent and the drinks were great.
We had the most special experience! Asanda was our lovely lady that made the experience the most amazing one, thank you for a lovely day!
Fantastic high tea with Nomkitha! Lots of food and the tea selection was spectacular. Great ambiance on the veranda.
It was lovely, beautiful setting, warm atmosphere, good service, knowledgeable staff
Perhaps consider identifying the variations of tea somehow, we had several pots and couldn't remember them all
What a wonderful way to spend a cool and drizzly afternoon! All of the food and teas were delicious and the service could not have been better. I’d recommend the experience to anyone who asks.
We were here for Father’s Day high tea. It was lovely and especially Nomkitha, who made sure we were looked after perfectly. 5 stars. 🙌👊🏻❣️
From the moment we stepped into the Mount Nelson, we were made to feel incredibly welcome. The atmosphere is timeless, but it was the service that truly stood out. A special thank you to Asanda, who made our High Tea experience a memorable one. Her attention to detail and warm hospitality added a personal touch that made the afternoon feel extra special. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a classic Cape Town experience.
Great atmosphere, experience and incredible staff.
The food for the high tea didn’t feel like a 5 stars experience however, with most dessert not feeling like homemade.
The bottomless tea and coffee was a plus!
Great experience that I recommend regardless.
Our waiter Ntombi was amazing
Loved Ntombi. Craig was my favourite with great pairing suggestions.
Thumi was very nice! Also the whole experience!
We had the most wonderful afternoon tea experience at Mount Nelson. From the moment we arrived, everything was exceptional.
A special thank you to Thuli, our hostess, who was incredibly attentive, warm, and knowledgeable throughout the afternoon. She made us feel so welcome and enhanced the entire experience with her excellent service and attention to detail.
The pianist was absolutely amazing and created the perfect atmosphere. The live music added such a special touch and made the afternoon feel truly elegant and memorable. (Especially playing our first dance song by Lionel was a beautiful touch given we are on honeymoon)
The food was incredible, beautifully presented, fresh, and delicious. And the tea selection was simply divine, with so many wonderful varieties to enjoy.
Overall, we had the best time and would highly recommend the Mount Nelson Afternoon Tea experience. It’s a truly special treat, made even better by the outstanding staff and ambiance. We can’t wait to return!
Wonderful experience, high tea was amazing, Thuli and Craig were very knowledgeable and helpful.
The hotel was amazingly located with grand decor in an old school sort of vibe. The grounds had beautiful gardens, and the rooms were well appointed.The staff was amazing and well trained in all levels of staffing. The place was immaculate, and the rooms were well maintained as were the common areas. The bar in the small dish eating there was wonderful. The dessert Baker was amazing creating masterpieces. The assistant manager VuVu was excellent at her job.
High Tea with the family is a 5 star experience. Location, food, atmosphere ( loved the piano live music) all is perfect and we were hosted by Andiswa what is an added extra 5 star 🙂.
What a wonderful experience at the Mount Nelson High Tea. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles, seated promptly, and served immediately. Each course was thoughtfully explained, and the selection of unlimited teas was exceptional. The service was outstanding, and the ambiance was elegant and relaxing. A special thank you to Aphiwe for making our visit so memorable—you were absolutely wonderful. We look forward to returning!
