1am a loyal customer of the Palace Hotel for their high tea experience. I've been to every high tea experience in the bay and the palace always takes first place.
Make sure you call about dietary restrictions beforehand, since they have to prepare some of the desserts and scones in advance.
Due to dietary restrictions, I always get the gluten free and vegetarian tea. It’s the best afternoon tea on the market.
The service is always good and of course the location is beautiful. Parking is... not great. But worth it.
