Along the years, it became a tradition to visit the V&A everytime I visit London (twice a year) and to have tea and scone at the cafe. I was surprised this year to be treated rudely by the staff (as if I was queuing at Disneyland!) and to found on my plate a scone half what it used to be. Huge

Great place for lunch after a walk round the museum. Salads are really good.

In such a beautiful ambience you can close your eyes on some things. Service only gets worse from time to time...

The cafe spread across 3 stunning rooms and the gallery by the courtyard. It?s the most beautiful place to sit for afternoon tea even it?s all self- service. I have been here many times and a member for 14 years. My favourite is the William Morris room. Food is good too with a good choice of salads and hot food.

Was here yesterday with a friend. The atmosphere was great and so is the setting with the tiles and high ceilings. But, oh my goodness the staff were so rushed and service was dreadfully slow. You have to queue for the food. Then queue again in a different place for tea then queue again to pay and get a knife and fork which was handed over like you had asked for World peace. It spoiled the occasion. Next time we shall go somewhere else first to eat

LOVED the cafe- it is stunning with the lights and high ceilings. We stopped for an afternoon tea because when in England have to do it??. For our drink, we got tea. With the tea, unlike the US obviously with the tea culture, keep in mind they give you a whole pot per tea order which we drank the whole thing each and it tasted great. We also got the scone with clotted cream and jam, walnut/pistachio carrot cake, and cherry almond cake.

Lovely place with food that seems great but £5.50 for a slice of cake and they don?t even give you a napkin or anything to stir your £3.40 cup of tea with. Surly, dismissive staff.

Can be a little hectic so just appreciate you are at a major tourist attraction - stunning setting amd good tea and cake as standard!

This is where Benwigi does it all. It was noisy because there were so many people, but I was able to have my own time in my own space. Maybe it's because it's a small town, but the customers in front are kind to me. If you're confused after ordering, this is a place where they take care of your tray and whatever you ordered. The staff seemed to be having a hard time with the large number of customers.The black tea comes out quickly and the scones come out very quickly, but the flat hoe goes through the preparation process even while customers are passing by for just a few minutes. The person in front of me who ordered hot chocolate was also divided for a long time. The taste of the flat white was so good that even in a place like this where there were a lot of customers, they put a lot of care into decorating it beautifully.The tea and scones were delicious in a beautiful space, so it was a place where I could relieve the fatigue of a tiring trip.There was no racial discrimination.

My first visit to the members room was on Saturday but didn?t realise the queue would take quite so long. When we got a table the menu was not as advertised on the website. There were no sandwiches or quick, snack items available, few vegetarian options, not even chips. Onion soup ok but not good. The waiter?s English was poor and he did not understand what we?d ordered so we got the wrong drink and there were not told that they had no flavoured crisps. The prices were ok but the whole experience was extremely disappointing and I shall certainly never bother to go again.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options were very poor. One soup, 2 main dishes. Not even the chips were vegetarian. Very disappointing.
