We are thinking about having the Tea in the late afternoon to replace having dinner. Is this tea service all you can eat, or are the portions substantial enough? My Husband thinks it is just teenie weenie sandwiches....... rolleyes:

My friend and I have been to the GF Tea room a few times, and it's really not alot to eat. We consider it an afternoon snack. We've got the tea for two one time, didn't really care for it too much. Our favorite is just to go and get scones and hot chocolate or tea, and the strawberries w/wipped cream. It is a very small sitting area, and definatly not all you can eat. We enjoy the simple elegance of it, and its' just a nice break!

My mom and I went to tea at the GF in July 2001 and everyone is right, the portions are a little small to replace dinner. We ended up eating some fast food later - you could probably have some sandwiches and pastries at the tea and then just grab something small like a piece of pizza for dinner and be satisfied. The tea was a really nice, quiet break from our busy Disney day and definitely something I would recommend doing!

I liked when they had the tea at The Rose and Crown. That was all you can eat.
