“ The Coffee Lounge is a quaint place nestled in the Manhattan Suites in the Century City area. The interior set up is beautiful, and the noise levels makes it bearable to have wholesome conversations to connect. The staff is helpful and very friendly, warmly welcoming you on arrival and also attentive to your needs as well. We opted for the high tea of R265 per person, but you can also find wikideals vouchers for the High Tea available at a much discounted price. I’ve been to many High Teas and definitely found a good buy with this one. You definitely do get value for your money via the food ordered and the service given. They don’t just offer the high tea, but have an additional menu where one can order meals/cake options of one’s choice too! ”
“ What a superb high tea experience. The savories, sandwiches, prawns, and tomato and cheese pesto skewers were really yummy . The scones, chocolate éclairs and cakes were moist and yummy as well. The service was great, and this establishment had become a firm favorite . Thanks for a wonderful experience ”
