Where do we even start… afternoon tea needs a re-think. I’ve been to several of these bars before for drinks and they have been perfect. How wrong was I to assume revolution in Edinburgh would be the same! Afternoon tea was redeemed via a voucher which was a smooth process when we booked over the phone. It then went downhill from here. Upon arrival, the place seemed clean and tidy and I was thoroughly looking forward to it. After being seated, the first signs of demise were the blue sticky marks on the cutlery and plates. After the members of staff confirmed our order, the food arrived fairly quickly. However, expecting sandwiches, scones and all things typical British, a plater consisting of 1/4 burger each, 4 cheesy jalapeños fried, and a sharing bowl (rather small) of cheesy cheap chips arrived with a small portion of the toughest chicken strips I have ever attempted to take a bite of. This was shortly followed by the arrival of the desserts - a single, cold, hard waffle with pre-melted ice cream and a small serving of berries to add to the tasteless flavour. This also included a slither of chocolate brownie (also tasteless) and what tasted like a cheesy sock but was suppose to be a cheese cake. I think the only good part was the tea which I am pretty sure was an ‘additional extra’ - ironic considering the name of the package. Guess what, even the tea pot was sticky! After nibbling away at the monstrosity, we couldn’t wait to leave. Thoroughly gutted and I feel like the experience has completely flipped my views of the brand. I hope a representative from the company reads this review and decides to try afternoon tea for themselves. I would recommend a few stomach settlers after just for good measure. To be fair to the staff, they were friendly and welcoming but I think even they knew what a poor decision we were in for. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Great day in Edinburgh topped off with a brilliant afternoon tea at Revolution. Food service and drinks were fantastic. If you want an Afternoon tea with a difference I highly recommend.

We had a wonderful afternoon tea using a voucher which was a present. We couldn't complain about a thing. We sat in a booth which was lovely. We had the afternoon tea that had the burger sliders etc and also 3 desserts. The young women in the next booth had traditional afternoon tea and cocktails. So obviously there are different afternoon teas depending on which vouchers are bought. We preferred our one and had a lovely afternoon. The music wasn't up to much but we are older and not our taste but it was only background music. Logan was very attentive and made sure we were OK and had everything we needed. We will be back

The vegan options were great! I feel like i had a great choice, our waiter Loagn was amazing! He would pop by and ask of we were okay and needed anything else! Food and drinks were great, music was good! Not too wild!
