The Victoria Room


Today was a fabulous girly day of High Tea - this time at The Victoria Room in Darlinghurst. Not a hen's but a birthday celebration. Make that a double birthday celebration for the fabulous Misses EW & SP. The restaurant is quite dim, but once your eyes become accustomed to the low light, you notice just what a delightful place it is that you've entered. There is a definite British Rajah feel to the place.


The room is highly decorated, with fringed lamps, palms and plenty of comfy couches and chairs! Each seating area feels like your very own private salon, where you can gather to hear the latest gossip (or on dit). It is definitely a location where dressing up would not feel out of place. 

There was a large selection of tea available, each person receiving their own little pot of warming goodness. 


We were all highly excited about sugar cubes, but disappointed by the lack of tongs!


And the food was simply scrumptious! Sandwiches, scones and sweet treats. 





Surprising that there was anything left over, but a half a mini cupcake sad and lonely.




And finally, a nicely blurred shot of the bar.
