A very nice restaurant with extremely reasonably priced food. So very nice and quiet. The waiter was extremely attentive but not bothersome.
We started with appetizers (pan seared scallops & a lobster and prawn croquette). Beautiful presentation (forgot to snap pictures) and very flavorful. Would definitely order them again!
We both ordered the Fish & Chips and I have to say, they were some of the best I’ve ever had in London over the years. Huge chunks of white fish with a breading that was neither too thick nor too thin that had a fantastic CRUNCH! The mushy peas were flavored with an herb mixture. The chips (French Fries for us Americans) were very good. Perfectly fried.
We were so full we had to skip deserts, but plan to come back to try their offerings which I have no doubt will also impress.
Give this place a try…you won’t be disappointed.
Was shopping in Mayfair area and had strong eager to have afternoon tea so we called the lanes of London if there’s any seat available. Fortunately there is! We had afternoon tea with bubble. The sweets were amazing though it was not unlimited supply. Overall it was a good experience. Highly recommended!
Came here for afternoon tea before our spa treatments. Had a great time in this wonderful hotel restaurant. The service was immaculate - the servers explained everything to us thoroughly and were accommodating to my allergies and teetotal lifestyle.
Loved the concept of the afternoon tea: a walk through Hyde Park. I've definitely had a better tasting afternoon tea, but I appreciate the thought and craftsmanship behind the one offered here, even if the execution wasn't perfect.
Overall, if you get the chance to have afternoon tea here before your spa, go for it!
We were here for afternoon tea. The food was beautifully presented and the staff was very kind. The scones and the savoury were very good. The pastries were just very sweet and didn’t taste like very much.
We loved it, so calm and relaxing. The staff was extremely kind and quick. We are def coming back next year. The vegan choices were incredibly good!
The food is incredibly good, the staff could be a little nicer but overall a good experience. I would definitely recommend
We had such a lovely time visiting lanes of London for a late lunch a couple of weeks ago.
The lady who I believe is the manager of the restaurant is always so welcoming and friendly…she remembers us every time we visit.
She helped us with menu choices and made us feel at home.
Our lunch was made even more enjoyable with a complimentary drink to welcome us back. This was much appreciated and a very kind gesture.
The food was delicious as always and the service fantastic.
We look forward to visiting again.
Afternoon tea yesterday was excellent!! glass of bubbly, Jasmine white tea and the host was warm, friendly and helpful. Brilliant 😊
One of my favourite hotels in London, I frequently pop in for meetings or if I want a quiet drink, Sunday dinner or with my laptop to do some work.
I must say, I would come strictly for the sticky toffee pudding because this place had the best sticky toffee pudding but it's gone proper downhill. The shell used to be much crunchier and it was just different, now its soft and not the same. They've completely changed the ingredients of the shell. Wouldn't order it anymore.
I've had dinner here several times, had salmon, roast dinners, burger & chips or I'll come and just grab some bar bites, i.e. mini burgers / arancini / chips etc, but I came for dinner a few months back and had the miso salmon which was not nice at all - gets a bit sickening after.
All in all, my favourite spot in London, will return again and again and again and again.
Only recommendation that I would recommend is some charging points near the seating areas as there is very limited seating with a plug point.
Booked a 2 pm slot for afternoon tea...a wonderful experience! The photos speak for themselves!! Go try it!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our Botanical Afternoon Tea with bottomless bubbles here last week. Lanes has a perfect location being just a couple of minutes walk from Marble Arch tube station and across the road from Hyde Park (lovely for walking off their generous afternoon tea!) Service from all of the staff was exceptional. Tea menu is extensive, even for the pickiest of tea connoisseurs. Sandwiches were fresh and inventive, we especially loved the use of the specialty breads which made them a little more special than your average afternoon tea offering. Scones were some of the best we’ve ever tasted and the cakes were delicate morsels from heaven. All in all, a wonderful experience where you’re made to feel very special by the fantastic staff. Thank you to all of the team- we will definitely be back xxx
Enjoyed an afternoon tea here with my partner. It was the right choice! Very unique and flavorful teas and ‘sandwiches’
Would love to visit again soon
After an amazing stay at the London Marriott Park Lane, we ended our weekend with afternoon tea at Lanes of London. Highly recommend! It was very tasty, creative, and was complimented with 3 different tea selections!
Absolutely fantastic experience of a traditional quaint, but modern British afternoon tea.
A plethora of teas, beautiful decor, and stunning food. Some of the flavours and creative foods from edible flower pots to twisted cucumber sandwiches only added to the affair. The tableware was amazing and to top it all off we were treated to alluring love harp music.

Came here for afternoon tea. Being a chain brand my expectations weren't the highest. I was wrong selection of teas and coffee were fantastic. The afternoon tea had plenty of small desserts, they were all splendid, although definitely cater to the sweeter tooth. Overall great service and lovely afternoon tea.
Delicious food, friendly staff, lovely place.
I go there when i want to meet friends or for business meetings, sometimes even on a date. It is a great relaxed place. I feel like home when i am there. The staff is extremly friendly and professional. The food is very good, since many years i come there, the quality always stays top!
Highly recommend. Hidden gem in central london. Not to be missed.
Afternoon is the best I've had so far. Unlimited tea. You can literally try every single tea, if you wanted.
The food and pastries all tasty and fresh. Nicely balanced flavours. The only thing is I wish the scones came out warm. Cold scones aren't the best. Well present too.
Staff are very good. Attentive and friendly. There was live music when we went, which is lovely.
All this for an amazing price!
