Hello everyone! Back in August last year, my sister and I had the privilege to have a very special meal in this expensive cafe in Harrods. This was none other than Tiffany Blue Box Cafe and they were mostly known for their afternoon tea. Little did my sister and I know that we would end up having a three course meal instead! Was this experience worth the money or should you look for an alternative?
What is Tiffany Blue Box Cafe?
Tiffany Blue Box Cafe serves breakfast and afternoon tea. It is presented by Tiffany and Co, the retail company, and the food is unique and pricey.
What I Ordered And My Opinions On It:
Breakfast – £45 each
This was a set menu so you had to pick which item you wanted from each category.
Seasonal fruit bowl
This fruit bowl contained a normal selection of fruits and acted as a side. They were just your standard fruits but were a healthy side/starter to nibble on before the main meal. It was a small portion. My sister really enjoyed having this. It also added some nice colour to the table. I would rate this a 3/5.
Baked all butter croissant with chocolate filled cremeux
This croissant was pretty standard but I loved how the chocolate was oozing out of the croissant. This reminds me of a classic French breakfast and again this was quite small so it was easy and quick to eat. I would rate this a 3/5.
Eggs Florentine
Eggs are one of the food that my sister and I do not try very regularly. This looked interesting so we decided to try this egg dish. It looked very unique and it was this nice royal yellow and green dish. To me, it tasted pretty delicious and it is definitely do those people who love eating their eggs. It was also very heavy and filling because I think I was quite full already at this point! I would rate this a 3/5.
Drinks (hot chocolate and juice)
I don’t remember if we have to pay additionally for this but do double check if you want to have other drinks with your meal. I had juice which was again pretty standard and also the hot chocolate (as a chocolate lover). The hot chocolate was rich and creamy and I believe it was one of my favourites from this whole meal. Again, I couldn’t fully enjoy it though because I was quite full already! But I really liked these drinks and would rate it a 4/5.
The Place:
The place was large enough and you did have to prebook your table. There were other people at their tables and the tables were quite big yet, you will be on close proximity with other guests. I loved how everything was very clean and blue in the shop which really brought out the Tiffany vibes. I felt like a royal person!
The Service:
With great prices and great money spent comes great service! Of course, the standard of the service was high at the Tiffany Blue Box Cafe and the staff were kind and were willing to answer any questions my sister and I had about the menu. They also served the food at a decent amount of time – it perhaps took longer than usual as they are pretty unique dishes.
Would I Recommend It?
If you want to try living the Harrods life, I would say trying this place once is worth it! I was slightly disappointed with the lack of choices, especially in terms of Halal food and I wish there were more choices available for the price we are paying. I feel like the food however was quite unique and it was a new experience. I felt like a queen being served all the new and uncommon dishes at this beautiful restaurant and spending time with my sister! So, yes go with your loved ones if you have some spare money saved up once but it is definitely not a must for teenagers or anyone with a budget! It was a great experience after all and my tummy felt full after having all the food!
My Rating: 3/5
My Rating System:
⅕ – was below average and would not recommend even trying once
⅖ – the food was average and would not recommend trying
⅗ – the food was delicious but would recommend trying maximum once
⅘ – the food was really good and would recommend trying here
5/5 – the food was outstanding and is one of my favorites!
