To celebrate my Mums special birthday we had booked an afternoon tea at Bon Tea Room. This is somewhere we had heard great things about and I can understand why. The tea room has a lovely bright but cosy/home feel and we were made very welcome from the moment we stepped in the door. They offer a selection of food (toasties/sandwich from what I could see) but we went for the afternoon tea. This came with a choice of hot drinks and sandwiches and of course lots and lots of different hand made sweet treats. Scones, macarons, mini cup cakes, chocolate work bites, choux pastry shaped as a swan- I could go on! This was really special as you can see the time, care and love that has been put into making all the little bites. Everything looked fantastic and tasted incredible. On top of this they also remembered it was my mums birthday and brought out an extra cup cake and candle which was a lovely personal touch. Needless to say we all left happy and with a couple of boxes full of treats to take home! It was such incredible value and high quality, I look forward to going back and would highly recommend to all.

Had the most amazing 60th birthday celebration with friends at Bon. Service was outstanding. Quality of cakes and sandwiches wonderful. Great selection. The petit fours were delicious. My friends loved it and want to go back as do I. Thank you for a very special afternoon. Xx

We had a fantastic takeaway afternoon tea from Bon yesterday. Served on little cake stands, the lovely hand made sandwiches, scones and cakes were delicious, including intricately constructed mini swan choux buns and white chocolate teapot and cups! With additional boxes of extra sandwiches, scones and slices of cake, it was excellent value for money. Can recommend highly.

Another fantastic afternoon tea from Bon! Have sat in and had the afternoon tea many times but had takeaway this time. No difference in the quality and time spent creating this lovely, tasty treat! Served on little cake stands, beautifully wrapped with additional boxes of extra sandwiches and cakes. The little buns and chocolate cups and teapots are so imaginative and everything is delicious?you?ll not find better value for money!

Every time I visit Edinburgh I go out my way to visit Bon Tea Room. Their afternoon tea is delicious. Made fresh. And they accommodate for friends or family I take who prefer gluten free. The owner Lin is a delight and it?s always great to see her. Highly recommend!!!

Went for afternoon tea for two, nicely decorated inside with good service. We got the choice of three kinds of sandwiches from five choices on white or brown bread , four home made scones with clotted cream and jam. A selection of mini cakes and a choice of tea and coffee. After we also got another choice of cake to eat in or take away. Plenty to eat for two. Would go back.

We had an amazing Father?s Day afternoon tea from Bon today. Everything is handmade and fresh, there were plenty of sandwiches and scones. The handmade chocolates and little cakes were delicious. There were also slices of cake. Such amazing value and it even came beautifully presented on a cake stand.

Love Bon, I like to get a takeaway afternoon tea. It comes on its own takeaway stand. With extra sandwiches and slices of cake. All cakes and scones are hand made and are delicious. I always order last minute and they always accommodate. Best afternoon tea sit in or takeaway ?

I collected afternoon tea for 6 friends from Bon Tea Room and the amount and quality of food we received was simply amazing. The service received was perfect & I would highly recommend either visiting the team room or making use of their takeaway service they provide.

My wife and I had heard this place was meant to be good so we decided to go for an afternoon tea. It was a last minute decision so we were lucky to get a table. Thankfully, I messaged the lady and she was able to jig things around and squeeze us in. The shop is very cute and pink. It feels very authentic as they add little personal touches. Between the 2 of us we had to choose 3 sandwich fillings from 5 options (I expected a few more to choose from). We ended up going with cheese & ham, tuna & mayo and egg & mayo. The afternoon tea came with scones with jam and clotted cream, a selection of small sweet treats and of course a pot of tea of your liking. I would have liked to have seen what tea?s they had available and for it to visible somewhere (the lady did list a few). Service was not bad and staff were quite friendly. We didn?t have to wait too long for our food. The sandwiches were generous and tasted as you would expect. You have the option between brown and white bread. The scones appeared a little stale on the outside but on the inside they were very soft and tasty. The jam was very jelly like but nice and the clotted cream was spot on. The sweet treats on the top layer were good. Some were tastier then others but the attention to detail was what we were most impressed about. Our favour was the cupcake with the macaron on top. Our teas cups of tea were also nice. We got a choice of homemade cakes and treats to takeaway. I went with the carrot cake and my wife had the empire biscuit. Both of which were fine. Overall, we thought it was good value and we are glad we visited. For afternoon tea standards. I?d say it?s great.

I went last Saturday with a friend after wanting to try Bon for some time, and the wait was well worth it. Gorgeous food, all made fresh, and the kindness of the owner and of the waiter made it even better. Great place, I'll be back. Thank you!
