TWG Tea Salon @ ION



There were 2 of us and we shared a Celebration Tea Set and a 1837 Tea Set.

Tea Sets (3pm - 6pm)

Celebration Tea Set ($29)
Tea
Choice of 3 macarons
Choice of 2 scones/muffins or pâtisserie from trolley
Choice of 3 finger sandwiches

1837 Tea Set ($17)
Tea
Choice of 2 scones/muffins or pâtisserie from trolley

The place is quite small and we had to wait for about 30 minutes to get a table on a Sunday afternoon. It's quite understandable actually. If you had to pay that amount for a tea set, you'd hardly be rushing through your meal.

Service: From reading some reviews online, I expected to be snubbed or something. But the service was great. Staff were efficient and the recommendations on what to order were excellent as well.

Food: Foie gra and smoked salmon sandwiches were delicious but the Roma tomato one was nothing special.

The Singapore Surprise (one of the most popular items according to the staff) was just right. Not too sweet. I'll definitely order it again if I go back.

The scones were slightly warm when served and came with cream and tea jelly (good enough to eat on its own).

Macarons were good. One of the better ones I had in Singapore. The Rose one do with a stronger rose flavor. My favorite is the Grand Wedding (passion fruit & coconut).

The tea (we ordered Grand Wedding & Timeless Tea) complimented to desserts perfectly and was a perfect cap to the lovely meal.
