National Gallery - Tea
 
I've heard the dining room (not the cafe) is fairly good, but a little pricey. I looked on their website - it has the menu, but no prices! Lol - they were cut off. Anyone had tea here?

Thanks for any info/opinions!

Would that be the National Gallery in London?

Yes, it would :">

The prices are on the site for the restaurant. They're at the top of the menu before the sellections.

2 courses - 24.50
3 courses - 29.50

Both prix fixe come with a kir cocktail.

That's for the dinner, not afternoon tea, which I think is what the OP is after.

You are right -there isn't a price, but it does sound lovely! Easiest just to phone them.

Now I understand the web site. I took "dining room" to mean restaurant. I didn't realize that there was another site for the cafe and both offered afternoon tea. The way I accessed their site there was only one option for the dining room.
