   I booked the afternoon tea at the Hardiman for my best friends big birthday, for the price of the afternoon tea, €43, I didn’t think it was great value for money, very small spread, one sandwich of each, or like half a sandwich/ wrap, one scone each, also we asked for prosecco, which we got but we did not realise if we got Prosecco we didn’t get tea?!The table is very beautifully set with a teacup and saucer that unfortunately was not used, a big let down on a big day

   Decor was nice. Presentation was impeccable. Serve was good. Quality and quantity of the food compared to the price was disappointing. €70 for 2 people is too much for what you get.

   The food was nice - desserts delicious - although there seemed to be a smaller amount than I've had before in either The Hardiman or elsewhere. One ordinary scone each - in the past I'd have had one tasty plain scone and 1 fruit/chocolate one, as well as sweets and savouries. I brought my friend there for her birthday and I had pre-ordered the vegetarian Afternoon Tea for her. Unfortunately her egg sandwich tasted of salmon, which we pointed out to the waiter, but apparently the kitchen claimed that she had SEEN something orange in her egg sandwich which they reckoned was only egg yoke. We didn't push it because we were there for a nice celebration but it has made both of us inclined to avoid The Hardiman for Afternoon Tea in the future, which is a shame, as the surroundings are just lovely.

   Unfortunately, our experience was nothing short of disastrous. Despite booking the afternoon tea in advance, we were greeted with confusion from the staff who seemed completely unaware of our reservation. Initially, we were sent to the bar to wait and assured that someone would come to get us when the table was ready. It wasn’t even a busy afternoon, yet we were forgotten for 25 minutes until I had to find the waiter myself, who admitted he had completely forgotten about us. We eventually seated ourselves in the lounge and informed the same waiter, but it was another 30 minutes before anyone came to serve us. The manager did come down eventually, but things didn’t improve. Orders were forgotten repeatedly, including basic items like side plates. After waiting for a considerable time and asking two different waiters, both arrived simultaneously with the plates. Witnessing the same disorganized service at nearby tables, we even suggested they give the extra plates to another group experiencing similar issues. When the afternoon tea finally arrived, it was underwhelming. The plates were visibly unclean, and while the food looked presentable, it was not fresh. The only redeeming item was a small scone. One decent item out of many simply doesn’t justify the cost. The service wasn’t the only disappointment—the bathrooms were in a shocking state. No toilet paper in any cubicles, no hand towels, and broken electric dryers added to the dismal experience. If the venue was short-staffed, it would have been professional to inform us from the outset, especially from the manager. A gesture of goodwill, such as a complimentary drink, would have at least acknowledged the delays and poor service. At €75 per head, this experience was absolutely not worth it. I strongly urge others to avoid this establishment. From start to finish, it was a complete disaster.

   Very poor sandwich selection with really plain fillings. No effort at all. Service was poor and we were left alone after the initial service. It was not a treat at all as you would expect. Very bad value for money at 35 euros per person. I would not recommend it ....do not waste your money.it was supposed to be a birthday treat but it was a complete disaster and very disappointing

   It was terrible. 15mins waiting I had to keep going to find staff and request our table and was ignored my most. Finally sat 20mins later than booked. Again staff disappeared. It was 45min before we had drinks order taken. My mug had a huge chip. Our food was served an hour late. The area was freezing aswell with the main door blowing cold air on top of you. It was frustrating to find staff to speak too. There wasn't even people to complain too. I went to pay and they tired to charge me twice. Food was OK but everything else was awful. Never ever again and i suggest people go elsewhere

   Food was beautiful and great service. Seating area was pretty cold due to the revolving door. Otherwise lovely.

    I had a great experience at the Afternoon Tea service with my sister and nieces. They easily accommodated my sister's gluten allergy and my nieces felt like princesses through the whole experience. Our server was so lovely to us and made us feel special. The pianist played beautifully and my youngest niece was enamored with her. I highly recommend booking yourself an afternoon tea here.
