5.0in the last week1st visit to London, and Afternoon Tea was my #1 thing to do! Did alot of research on the best places (and prices) and chose Origin; it was mid-priced and got great reviews. It did not disappoint! Cost was about 45 GBP per person, with optional champagne, prosecco and other drinks (yes please!). Coming from the US I wanted to make reservations, and emailed back / forth with Sada, a hostess there. Her communication was great. Origin is the restaurant within a hotel and both are just lovely. Our server explained everything, the presentation was impeccable and everything was delicious. There were a few hot things (like mini quiches), then savory sandwiches (I recall a curry, chicken salad, smoked salmon, cream cheese with cucumber), and a gorgeous display of sweets and scones. In-between, they bring an intermezzo (sorbet, chocolate crumbs, edible flowers and more). After, we walked through Kensington Gardens on a beautiful day (the first, after many days of being cold and rainy I guess.. people were sunning themselves on the grassy slopes). All in all a beautiful experience.

5.0a month agoUsed a travelzoo voucher, but the service and food was no different had I not had one. Impeccable presentation, and the taste and portions were wonderful. The atmosphere is great and staff are so attentive, without being 'in your face'. Will definitely go back again with a voucher. Don't think I can stretch to full price!

3.06 months ago6/10 experience I’ve only experienced afternoon one other time at the Sanders Hotel (mad hatter’s tea) which I absolutely loved. Origin Kensington is still new and I think needing to craft their menu. The items were creative but missed the mark for flavor in my opinion. Too unusual for the savory and sweet pastries/desserts especially. The desserts each had too strong of a particular flavor. The sandwiches and scones were pleasant, and the tea selection was nice. SERVICE: good and the all the staff we encountered were friendly. ATMOSPHERE: quiet and pleasant during our September, Sunday visit around 3pm. OVERALL: I would try a different place for a traditional afternoon tea. This one missed the mark for the savory and dessert items so I won’t be back for the afternoon tea experience.
