Last night was our daughters 20th birthday and First Edition surprised my daughter with a lava cake. It was very sweet and thoughtful of them.

The booking process was easy as it’s all done online. The food was delicious. The venue was clean. The night view was great. The only suggestion I have is to possibly leave a bigger gap between the tables. I really didn’t like sitting so close to other people and watching each other eat. Definitely recommend.

This was a fantastic experience! A group of 8 of us went for the Giggly High Tea. Loved the quirky teapot cocktails and the food was delicious. The staff were very friendly and service was perfect. Only suggestion would be for more savoury options but everything provided was just lovely. Would thoroughly recommend.

Below average giggly high tea. We waited 10 minutes to be served and waited 20 minutes to receive our first drink. The food was okay but the scones were harder than a hockey puck. The cocktails were also okay, I wouldn’t say it was worth $70 each. We also tried to order more food as we were hungry but they said the kitchen was closed for regular food which was definitely disappointing!

We booked a giggly high tea for friends. On arrival we were shown to a table which had a nice view but that was where the service ended. We did not get told what was happening so when we sat there for 15 minutes with no one coming to see us we grabbed someone to tell us what was happening and how to order a tea. We then had to ask for everything from then on. The food was pretty good and the drinks were fine too, but high tea should be an event. In this case I think they missed the mark on service. If you want a high tea try white rabbit just downstairs. Amazing cocktails, great service and excellent vibe.

Had to seat ourselves and find our own menus as there were no staff members in sight to aknowledge us when we arrived. Waited an hour for a club sandwich. See pic – this is not a club sandwich, more like a burger. Did not match the description in the menu at all. Ordered 2 scoops of ice cream for our daughter as we started the main…waited half an hour and still nothing. Couldn’t wait anymore so had to leave. We had wanted to order dessert but considering the wait, we went elsewhere. The restaurant was only at half capacity. The bread plate was some dry toast with flavourless olive oil….and the cheese plate looked like it had been plated by a child, no finesse at all. Was a really, really disappointing dinner. I wish we had dined elsewhere. So upset we had to pay so much for that.

A disaster for a worldwide known hotel like the Novotel. We came to try out the truffle menu presented as a special edition in the restaurant.

Went on the day prior to mothers day, for an early mothers day celebration for my Mother and my wife. Good experience, however service was very slow and poor. Food was not really fresh, and was only provided 1 cup to tea/coffee each. Was meant to be 2 hours of tea/coffee, but didn’t get to order any until an hour in, and that took 25 minutes to come. Was provided Mocktails at the start, but these were not asked for/ordered.
