Shortbread Teas (Closed)

've been this place for many times after discovering their wonderful handmade scones.Missed the scones I had in England and this place won't let you down. The amour, flavor, freshness that you should get from England are here in this cozy, little shop. Scones are always served fresh and warm, with the perfectly melted butter, jam and cream. I think their scones are better than many hotels'. Come with unique blend of tea - caffeinated or de-caf. Somewhere you shouldn't miss if you like scones. P.

Openrice 不單是一個搜尋餐廳的人氣網上平台，也讓我認識到一班志同道合的食友們！  這 4 年來，我獲邀出席貴網的會員飯局，從而讓我與一班素未謀面的食友們真正認識及見面！ 我沒想到，會認識到非香港人的食友！  早在 2011年11月中，出席 Dinner at the dark 的活動中，認識了一位看似混血兒的靚女食友 supersupergirl！   早前，我跟她一起認識了一位澳洲籍年輕靚女食友！ 於英國土生土長的 supersupergirl 是英式小茶室 Shortbread Teas 的熟客，好讓她一解思鄉之愁吧！同時，令她嚐到英式自家製風味的美食甜點，滿足又享受！  這間英式小茶室成為她在香港最喜愛的餐廳之一！  而澳洲籍女食友喜歡食甜品！ 於是，我相約她們一起到 Shortbread Teas 嘆英式下午茶！ Shortbread Teas 隱身於中環威靈頓街，正是 Hero Sandwich 對面；門口窄小，如非 colourful 的招牌吸引視線，很容易便走過龍！  沿樓梯走到地庫，別有洞天！  這裡佔地不大！卻充滿英倫風格！ 一踏進燈

Choosing a tea here is quite a headache because there are so many lovely choices!!My favourites are Duchess Grey, Highland toffee, Whisky and Ginger and Christmas pudding.Now, there are new blends to the tea collection.Here are the opening hours, so don't get caught out.A while ago, I went with friends and decided to try their picks which were Whisky and ginger and Bells of St Clements.The Whisky and ginger was surprisingly good with a warming strong fiery ginger taste while the other one was pl

Yes, it's me again!I am always here for food because I can't get enough of it.It really pisses me off for the week if I don't get my weekly dose from here!!Got some tea from the tea sale which I never made, but now I have a lovely tea strainer so I've got no excuse!~!Anyway, heres a collection of the yummy food I usually have.★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★Egg and mayonnaise sandwich:Although this is a simple sandwich that anyone can make, I just love it because it is filled with delicious egg and mayonnais

一個人午飯時間當然想坐得舒服D，最好無人搭台。然後我走到了這間小店，隱藏在小巷子內英式下午茶小鋪。點了份雞肉焗薯，雞肉切粒，用的是雞胸肉，有雞味唔「鞋」。焗薯十分淋，咬一口焗薯加一口夾雜著煙肉的雞肉，十分滿足。飲品方面點了檸檬橙皮菜，加一粒方糖，甜中帶酸，十分開胃。

前兩星期的天氣忽冷忽熱，鼻子的敏感又敵不過乍暖還寒的環境，結果這兩星期幾乎都在和藥丸做朋友。和英雄相約下午茶的地點時看到朋友在這兒，二人都覺得不錯便很快成為這次下午茶的地點。店子門口不太起眼，一不小心便會走過頭。走下狹窄的樓梯，來到佔地不大的地庫，左手邊放滿多款的茶葉和茶具，而旁邊便是餅櫃和廚房了。來到的時候剛好是午餐時間，全店滿座時環境有點吵離，但桌子之間保持一定的距離，沒有太大的壓逼感。這兒的茶送上之後都要焗三分鐘才把茶倒出來， 點了一壺 English Rose 分享。 起初的玫瑰味較香濃， 再添熱水後洋甘菊的味道則較為突出。Deluxe Afternoon Tea $188pp單單鹹點便有六件， 而且份量和平時的差不多， 要一人清光也不是容易的事。 Quiche 法式鹹批的味道很清淡， 而且中間的蛋餡又沒有其他配料， 味道就像沒有任何調味的焗蛋。 Frittata 意式蛋餅的味道則比前者好多， 加入各種顏色的燈籠椒， 口感上也比鹹批優勝。 不過比起這些批類， 個人較愛旁邊的三文治。 一人份有火腿麥包三文治和三文魚忌廉芝士三文治各兩份， 製作那份心意可以從味道上感受到， 要知道在

屈指一算，上一前攜著相機到餐廳吃飯已是三週以前的事了。三週說長不長，說短不短。心境變遷可不是三言兩語能說盡。既是如此，倒不如吃頓下午茶漫談。跟艾晨早說好了要一起來中環這大隱隱於市的英倫小店吃下午茶，故預先打了電話訂座。下午茶說是二時開始供應，但接線的店員(又可能是老闆娘?)表示早一點也可，我便留了一時半的座位。店門窄小不顯眼，一不留神便很容易走過頭。入門要走下長長的樓梯才到達位於地牢的店，樓梯要是再窄再陡一點便更像英國的房子了。英倫風色彩鮮明的佈置令客人彷若置身於英國小屋中，架上放滿了茶葉、茶壺和沙漏，秩序井然。一時半來到幾乎全店滿席，想是附近的上班族來午膳吧。這裡早上有供應早餐，中午至三時有供應自選的兩道菜、三道菜或四道菜午餐($65起)，另也有單點的三文治和沙律等。甚至下午茶三層架也有traditional和deluxe兩款選擇，不喜吃太多也可選吃Cream Tea。我倆商量一會便決定了要一人份的Deluxe Afternoon Tea，再單點蛋糕。茶我們要了English Rose，看到我們是二人分享，店員很細心的給我們兩套杯具。茶送上來時跟著一個小沙漏，店員叮囑要候三分鐘待沙漏

It's such a well-kept secret, tucked away in the basement of Wellington Street. Once you've found it, you'll be rewarded with a wide selection of teas, cake, scones and other British classics such as fry-ups for breakfast, backed potatoes and also quiche.I went with my parents. Together we shared one traditional afternoon tea set (for one person) which offers a selection of sandwiches, petit fours and a pot of breakfast blend tea (but you can upgrade to other teas too). The set includes Shortbre

Basically I get my dose of home food here~I am glad there is a tea sale going on because I have been so busy I havent been here for ages.I got my favourite Christmas Pudding tea which comes in a FOOD GRADE resealable packet!(See the meaning of FOOD GRADE at the end of this review)Anyway, it was fun making tea at home because I could pick out the pieces of orange peel that I don't like.I just wish that my cups were as pretty as their cups.On my previous visits, I have been having sandwiches and s

各位千萬不要幇襯，$168 一位英弐下午茶，我們點了兩位；看到地方並不舒適；絕對無英式茶室感覺；連一般平價茶餐廳都不如，只見廚房有一外藉男仕工作。連水都要自己倒，但敢收$168 一位，三層英式下午茶碟內蛋糕冇味，三文冶連麵包外邊都是乾硬的，英式松餅，簡直影衰英國傳統美食。我倆食唔到三份之一，叫埋單時；明眀枱上剩下三份二食物，不但冇問甚麼問題，連是否需要打包都唔問，可能明知他們的食物出品差勁，有錢收就算了。唯一我佩服的是膽敢收$168 一位，真佩服！我生平到過最最糟糕的餐廳。

Ever since my first visit, the cakes and teas are addictive that I need a weekly dose of it!~Once I have satisfied my craving for the week, I end up craving for something else the next week.There are so many different teas that are really nice.My favourites are:Breakfast teaDuchess GreyChristmas puddingHighland toffeeThe highland toffee has a lovely sweet smell. When milk and sugar are added, it is just like drinking silky toffee milk tea which goes well with almost anything.Then there is the Ch

平日的下午，中上環一帶雖然有不少食肆，但想找一間寧靜而又耐坐的並不多。跟友人走到shortbread，被門口的設計吸引了，就走進去吧。店子不算大，但平日嘛，所以賺了額外的寧靜。我跟友人一人點了一份tea set ($85 for 3 courses), 各自叫了一個叫rose和woodland的茶，rose像加了camomile ，是芬芳花香的茶。woodland是用了不同berries混合而成，酸酸的，很醒胃。我的主菜是bacon tomato quiche, 很rich的蛋，撻皮很脆，配合沙律菜，調和了牛油的膩。友人的是西班牙薯仔批，但我未有認真嚐味故不能下評我們還點了幾個蛋糕來分享: Beetroot Chocolate Cake：也許紅菜頭本身的味道很淡，朱古力便輕易地蓋過它，建議不嗜甜的朋友撇開美麗的icing來吃Carrot Ginger Cake: 薑味很出眾卻不搶，蛋糕質地像shortcake，不錯個人反而欣賞victoria sponge，很soft，簡單的jam把軟軟的蛋糕連起來，咬下去不會粉碎，推介。就這樣過了一個悠閒的下午，寫意～

Lovely Bristish home-feeling atmosphere, surely will go back again. I love the atmosphere and decoration there.Cakes are really special and original (~35HKD), especially the beetroot cake, but the taste not as good as I expected them to be. Judging from their appearance they look really nice. For texture they are a little bit too dry. The apple pie is better.The combination of foods their I love a lot, and health-conscious.  Anyway, nice place to relax with your friend there enjoying iced mint t

新開的餐廳，主打下午茶，但我已迫不及待午餐來試試了。午餐set 68每位，包一飲品和立食，這裡下午茶出名，我點了breakfast tea, 上來一茶壺還有一個三分鐘計時器，店員說三分鐘後可拎起試下味，果然味道不錯，沒有茶的苦涉味，保留了茶香。附上的奶和倒冇用到。我點了薯仔配煙三文魚，薯仔焗得剛剛好，熱得外皮脆脆的，連皮吃也可，三文魚彼新鮮，有小量油脂，配合著食，彼清新的。

When I saw this restaurant listed on Openrice, the name Shortbread sounded really familiar so I looked up Shortbread on Openrice and found this other restaurant in Tai Po called The Shortbread Company which I intended to go but it was closed down.Anyway, found out that the owners of this place used to own that.The owners Clive and Karin are really really nice!Shortbread Teas is slightly different from The shortbread company because here they serve teas and cakes. It is located in Central which i
