    After trying disappointing breakfast places in the surrounding area (Farm Girl comes to mind) none of which took cash, opted to have breakfast at The Ampersand hotel's restaurant because it did take cash (what a novelty) and i did not have to go out in the cold lookind for a subpar experience. The positive experience has changed my #1 rule of not eating at the same place I am staying in. Cozy atmosphere, with great offerings that covered the gamut, including gluten free. The Scottish salmon with scrambled eggs was outstanding, as were the homemade ricotta pancakes covered with berries, and the granola with same ( bear in mind I did not have all on the same day!). The service was uneven as the staff changed frequently all with different levels of training. After coming in for four days in a row by myself,I was only acknowledged by the bartender who remembered what kind of tea I liked. The servers looked at me like they had never seen me before. I came back two days after checking out, with a friend newly arrived and after asking if we could sit in their small private nook, the same server I had had two days before answered curtly that we could but, we would be asked to move if a larger contingent arrived (it was already 9:30 am, the place was almost empty and the nook would have bursted if a party of four had been ushered in). Not the most cordial welcome for anyone That cold kurffufle aside, I enjoyed everything I tried from their menu.

    Came here to round off my dino-themed birthday, and it was quite the treat! You get everything listed on the menu for each afternoon tea, and while at first it may just look like small portions each thing is super delicious and by the end we were totally filled up and satisfied 😄 The staff were super friendly and the concept was explained to us in good detail, so we could progress up the tiered plates from savouries to dessert. The last plate was super inventive and all of the flavours felt really unique. The actual tea was also delicious and they had a good selection. My friend was happy to see that the vegetarian option was also almost identical to the standard so we had essentially the same quality experience. I'd highly recommend this place. It is quite expensive but certainly worth it as a special treat!

    Came to Apero on a rainy day to experience the Jurassic Afternoon Tea with my son. Very unassuming from the outside but very nice restaurant with excellent staff. We came in early to get out of the rain and to our surprise the staff sat us 30 minutes before our reservation. Our server was wonderful and explained the whole process to us (first time tea goers). The tea was delightful as was all of the food. Plenty of treats that were much appreciated by my son!
