"Went for afternoon tea. £25 for two people. Poor start to the experience, we asked the girl serving us some basic questions about the menu and she couldn 't answer a single one, so she checked with another member of staff, this happened 4 times and eventually she gave up and sent over the other member of staff and we finally ordered. The afternoon tea consisted of 1 sandwich each (cut into 3 fingers) so only 1 flavour each (I had egg, my husband had salmon and cream cheese) hardly a selection of sandwiches as per the menu. 1 small cherry scone each with jam and cream (whipped not clotted) and 3 very small petit fours each. For £25 I would have expected a lot more food, perhaps a slice of cake (they had tonnes of homemade cakes on the counter which looked nice). Food was very basic, the egg mayo was just that, no cress etc. Salmon and cream cheese had very little filling. Cherry scone was bland and stodgy in the middle. Petit fours were small and nothing exciting. Overall for what we had I would have only paid around £10 £15 max. The man who eventually served us was a very pleasant guy, and he seemed a little embarrassed by our response to the lack of food, he did offer to get the chef to make us some additional sandwiches if needed. The place was very quite and I felt like the other guests were starring at us so I didn 't want to make a scene so rather than take him up on the offer we paid up and left. This was meant to be a special treat to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary, but instead we were left disappointed and hungry."

disappointed by the shocking service and the lack of lustre food. sandwiches tasty, scoone ok but not enough of “desserts” were at best nibbles. had to wait for a pot tee to come with the afternoon tee, dirty cups and a stainless steel tea pot from a back street caffe .. not to go again.

Throughly disappointed with the shocking service and lack lustre food.. sandwiches tasteless, scone ok but not enough of it “desserts” were nibbles at best. Had to wait ages for a pot of tea to come with the afternoon tea, dirty cups and a stainless steel tea pot from a back street cafe .. will not go again.

"No.5 appears to be in a state of transition of owners and it shows. We have never had a disappointing meal here until this last one. I have always had a little whinge that the menu hardly ever changes so despite previously loving the food when you have been a few times it becomes a bit samey . Recently went to the under new management White Houses and they have a fixed menu but lots of specials to add variety. Definitely top notch competition locally to No. 5 Service was initially very attentive but ended up as none existent. If I had been on my own, and not with a party, I would have abandoned the sweets the time we had to wait. Our server was young and clearly new and didn 't seem to have a clue when asked questions. Starters were generally very good apart from being a bit surprised when most of the party got a slice of brown bread that appeared to come straight out of a standard sliced loaf. What happened to the tub of warm rustic quality bread? Definitely lacked class. Mains were generally well presented and OK. I chose Beef Stroganoff again due to the limited menu, on a previous visit I had this and frankly it was the best I have ever tasted. Not so this time. Difficult to spot my strips of fillet steak , It seemed to be all mushroom with what steak I tasted being grisly and the sauce was just not right. The sweet menu selection was very limited and again unchanged. The jewel previously was the assiette of sweets which has now gone. Time has come to move on unless they re-vamp the menu and bring things back up to the standard of the old No. 5."
