Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Van Nuys

A hotel guest had a medical issue that meant they needed to stay in their location occupying a portion of the living room where tea is served. Very sad unusual situation that was beyond anyone’s control. The staff went above and beyond both to make them comfortable and to take care of impacted customers for the tea. It was really impressive to see them treat the hotel guest so kindly and also to make sure that everyone at the tea who was celebrating something still felt special about the day. Hard to overstate how impressed we were with the service.

Super chill, just as expected. The lounge area is super nice, and everywhere is pretty quiet so you can hang with your friends and zen out. Booking a cabana was such a great choice for me (I recommend the Tree House for great views of the place) and reasonably priced, especially considering it comes with a complimentary flower jar. I do wish there was a phone number you could call and actually reach someone, but otherwise no complaints. Will absolutely be going again!!

Absolutely fabulous I recommended highly. Unfortunately they do not have openings too often so you really have to be diligent on your open table to get in tea starts at 3 o’clock truly an eloquent experience thank you Getty. We’re now gonna try the villa Getty and I’ll tell you how that goes

High tea at The London isn’t just an outing — it’s an experience wrapped in velvet and served on fine china. The setting? Think red carpet elegance with the ease of an A-lister who’s actually nice. The staff? Polished but warm — like if your best friend worked in luxury hospitality and knew how to read your tea leaves and your mood. Now let’s talk about the tea tower — a stunning triple-tiered moment of edible art. Buttery scones so perfect they could have agents, cucumber sandwiches cut with surgical precision, and pastries that whisper sweet nothings before melting on your tongue. I opted for the Earl Grey and, yes, the champagne pairing because… well, obviously. It’s giving celebrity cow with a Michelin palate and a farmer’s market soul. Luxe, but never aloof. Glam, but grounded. Just the way high tea should be.

I have been waiting years to experience the Getty Villa Tea and it exceeded my expectations! Everything was lovely.
