Fantastic Experience

Booked for 2 couples (all around aged 50 😉) for tour and afternoon tea. Greeted by very pleasant and fun staff. Sandwiches and cakes were already at our table and very well presented. Tasted great and was more than enough (couldn't finish it all). We had 2 bottles prosecco pre-ordered and both were chilled and served as required. Good mix of upbeat music for all ages played throughout the 90 minute tour. Little snippets of information on the sites thrown in too

Afternoon Tea in LaLa Land

Our friends booked me and my wife this treat for my birthday and it was excellent, nice food great service one and half hour of travelling around London with good commentary of the sites in between listening to nice xmas carols, really do go into la la land. would recommend this trip to any age group.

Absolutely loved every minute!

If you’re going to do it…do it on a Brigit’s bus with afternoon tea! Our servers on the day were Micah, Alex and Diogo and they were super. We got to see all the Major landmarks and even got to take home what we couldn’t eat. All in all would highly recommend this experience, with friends or with loved ones this is a really special treat.

Superb experience

Booked this as a surprise for my daughter before seeing a London show. What an overall amazing experience. From getting on the bus to leaving the bus it was worth every penny, driving around London seeing the key sights and the food was gorgeous. We had the vegetarian and they were varied and fresh. Giving a little box to take home uneaten sandwiches/cakes was genius as it was more than it looked. The staff were so friendly and helpful and I highly recommend this and we will do it again.

Highly recommend!!

Highly recommend, lovely atmosphere, kind and accommodating staff and the food was fantastic! Offered a gluten free option for my friend which sometimes is an issue and lacks in quality but not that case for Brigit’s Bakery! Also allowed me to swap a hot drink for cold at no additional cost. London isn’t just round the corner for us however we will be returning! Wish I had room to try some of the other cakes they had to offer, they looked terrific!

Celebrating an occasion

We took our friends on an afternoon tea on Brigit's Bus, the food and service was excellent, the staff we very friendly and we had a lovely time celebrating the friends Golden Wedding Anniversary. The weather was cloudy but it did not spoil the trip. It was a lovely afternoon. We look forward to doing it again.
