    Was really good besides some really loud people who sat at the bar at the end. Some of the savoury food could have used some seasoning (my friends said the same thing) even just some salt because it was a bit bland. Overall was really nice though - would have preferred less seafood but that's my fault for not reading the menu properly and letting them know that I don't eat it. 100% coming back to try other themes, I missed out on the pain your own pannacotta which is upsetting but hopefully it comes back :) would definitely like to see more non carby savoury items though, it was a lot of bread and pastry.

    My parents, my partner and I enjoyed a lovely high tea on a Sunday morning. The food and service was excellent and the seating was comfortable and laid back, something different for high teas. I enjoyed the ambience and it wasn't too loud, but I suppose you've got to pick your time a high tea as it is set within a bar. Really loved it and will definitely visit again.

    Loved the food and the service was great. The only thing was the tables were very awkward to sit around and they could not get all the food on the tables as the area was too small for 5 people. They had to bring extra stools to place the food on which made it difficult to reach the food.

    The Eat Your Art Out afternoon tea was wonderful. The service was excellent. Staff constantly filling up our water glasses and offering drinks free flowing and included in our package. Sophia was able to explain what every tasty morsel served to us was. PresentIon of our high tea was beautiful. Painting our pannacottas with edible paint (fruit flavours) was so much fun. We had a delightful afternoon and highly recommend.

    The W is a beautiful hotel however the ambience for high tea could have been better especially at that price. The lounge was dim and the seats were awkward and not all that comfortable to be honest. I have been to alot of high tea and put this one with high expectations but I was a little disappointed to be honest.

    The high tea was creative; and the food was delicious. However we’ve been waiting for 40 mins to get the food while we were told the time frame for our high tea was two hours. The bar explained the reason was that one of us needs gluten free food which took extra time; however we already informed the bar in advance when confirming booking. The service wasn’t professional. As we all ordered different teas, the waitress can’t remember what were in the tea pots when she brought them to us, so she opened the lids to smell every pot in front of us…

    The Festive High Tea was amazing There was nothing bad or unpleasant served - each flavour profile worked with each other The staff were ah-maze-ing - sometimes during set time events you are lucky to get one coffee let alone a second - the staff were checking in with us regularly & even said good bye when their shift ended - outstanding!

    Just shy of $400 for high tea. Tbh it was not comparable to a English high tea. It was lovely and delightful. But more a Queensland slant on the original English high tea. Didn’t have exquisite charm making the patron feel royal and special. It did have a relaxed g’ day mate approach.

    We paid for the Festive High Tea and there was nothing festive about it! The food was yuck. Things that should have been hot tasted stale and cold. We also waited for 50mins for our food even though we had a booking. The cocktails were gross and even though we asked for a cocktail on arrival no one knew about this and we waited 20mins for our first drink. It was the worst high tea either of us had ever had. Not a good way to finish the year with my best friend. We spent $300 on this and it was worth I would say $50.

    Lovely high tea but very sweet heavy with the ginger bread house, we would have liked a little more savoury. Little disappointed that even though we booked and confirmed and with no changes it still took over half and hour for our food to come out.

    We are very disappointed in the location of the high tea. We did not enjoy any of the special customer experience at all. We felt like we were in a corridor with a limited sight, even though the hotel takes pride on being well positioned. The food quality was really average. The service forgot orders and did not have any idea what attention to detail was, one of the waitresses spilt some water on the table and forgot about it. Very dissatisfied for a 5 star hotel.

    Great at dealing with dietary restrictions for the high tea, except for nut allergies - you won't be able to have high tea if this is your concern. The day we were there, there were several large groups of women celebrating hen's events which was very noisy. Our small group had trouble hearing each other. Great variety of food, and the service was friendly.

    W Brisbane - Living RoomResponded on September 6, 2022Hi Mel, thanks for sharing your feedback. It’s great to see that our food and service quality were standouts! Thank you also for noting our dietary capabilities. Although we can’t cater to nut allergies; most other dietaries are possible with ample notice. It is troubling to hear however that venue noise levels were quite loud given the proximity of tables. Your concerns about this have been taken on board for future allocations. We do hope we may welcome you back again another time in future!

    My wife was very disappointed as she was trying it out for our son who was getting married the day before and we were meeting there for Hightea the next day. It was too noisy. The chairs were uncomfortable and the food had no taste.

    The food was nothing special. It looks great but no flavour. No balance of savoury and sweet. Egg truffle sandwich just tasted like a regular egg sandwich on white bread. Duck pie, 2% duck 98% pastry, with no flavour. Lemon myrtle scones could have been so amazing, such a great idea but had no flavour of lemon myrtle and were like little hard rocks., tomatoes jam tasted like tomato sauce. Lobster tart, once again no flavour, couldn’t taste lobster, looked adorable though. Vegan scallops, no flavour, looked great. Probably think I have no taste buds hahah but I can assure you that I do. The sweets were fine nothing outstanding as they were all very sweet. They look beautiful but each one was very very sweet. Would have like to see a better balance. The menu reads amazingly and if the dishes were delivered how they read it would have been fantastic. The service was great and the lounge is such a vibe.

    W Brisbane - Living RoomResponded on August 22, 2022Hi Lauren, thanks for taking the time to share your honest feedback. While we’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the service and ambience; it is disheartening to learn however that the food quality fell short on this occasion. For this, we apologize.

    We loved the food and drinks. The service was very attentive and made us feel special. However we found the seating a little uncomfortable for the enjoyment of the meal and was not accessible for all guests.

    We were very disappointed with the food. It was not tasty at all. It looked lovely and the presentation was beautiful but that was it.

    everything was great except the food, just didn't feel like there food was of great quality, i also ordered a the fish bits with chip for my son and i basically for 5 small pieces (less than bit sized) of fish. I cant comprehend spending $17 for a bowl of fries.
