Best Afternoon Tea in Thailand @ Mandarin Oriental Bangkok - Authors' Lounge Review
Traditional afternoon tea served with old world charm
The Authors’ Lounge must surely rate as one of Bangkok’s, if not Thailand’s, most photographed locations. Originally an open roofed garden featuring a pond signposted ‘please don’t feed the tortoise’, the Authors' Lounge has since 1976, featured a glass roof and is the place to enjoy afternoon tea. In keeping with the great literary heritage of the hotel, the newly restored Authors’ Lounge will feature a brand new collection of photographs of the many famous writers who have stayed at the hotel over the last three centuries. In addition, the ‘Heritage Authors, Noël Coward, James Michener, Somerset Maugham and Joseph Conrad are now immortalised in four new private lounges.
The Authors’ Lounge adheres to a smart dress code for all guests, including children. Ladies are kindly asked to wear elegant attire and proper footwear. Gentlemen are kindly asked to wear smart shirt, long trousers and closed shoes.
The Authors' Lounge at the Mandarin Oriental Bangkok extrudes sophisticated elegance and harkens back to a simpler time in old Siam.
Thaifoodies sampled two of the afternoon tea sets on offer at The Authors' Lounge - The Western set, which is a traditional French set and the Oriental, which is an homage to wonderful Thai street food. The Mandarin Oriental also offers a Vegetarian tea set! Everything in all three teas sets is homemade at the Mandarin Oriental and this incredible quality comes through with every single bite!
Few properties execute all aspects of dining flawlessly but the Mandarin Oriental comes a close as possible to a perfect experience.
We recommend that if you are visiting Bangkok that you make a booking for Afternoon Tea at Authors' Lounge at the Mandarin Oriental Bangkok for a lifelong memory - You'll thank us!

If you haven’t yet had the opportunity to visit this beautiful property do make a plan. It is a special place with a rich history.
Thaifoodies Co I had cocktails in the bamboo bar. I wish I had the money to stay there.
Absolutely and unequivocally this is your best editing in any of your videos.
Wow, I agree that this place is super tasty high tea place. I like the atmosphere overthere. Also staff is very kind! (Nice vdo shooting) Keep rollin Thaifoodies :)
Thank you!
Very classy and with food that looks a visual delight, I am sure it must be tasty too.
Khawaja Ramzee Yes, Normally i went there try just Western afternoon tea set never try The Oriental one. It is tasty and quality. Hope you visit here have a chance to try. 1 set share with group of friend only 600+ thb
What an amazing place and I think a delightful dish. I want to go abroad in Thailand. I think about very seriously. Thx for sharing !
magali BELLIENI Dear, Magali... Yes, The place is valued to try some delicious afternoon tea! Also welcome you to Thailand soon naka ^^
Thaifoodies Co 🙏
You have talked me into to it. Being a Scotsman I love my tea and scones so that will be on my list the next time i’m in Bangkok. Keep up the good work and I’m sure you’ll get the following that youd deserve.
The scones looked very poor. Give me an English cream tea any day.
It's no wnder you always have big smiles and grins on your faces, all these top notch free meals, and the way Babe always dives in it is as if she hasn't eaten for days.. You got yourselves a good little number there, and all those hotels to promote.
Wow! Awesome! Definitely on my list when I make my trip over to Bangkok
Keep the awesome videos coming! Love them very much!
Ronald Yoh Thank you for nice comment Khun Ronald. We still small channal we need more fans and nice comment to get more energy make a nice vdo ^^

The Vdo is very Beautiful, Love it!
LivelyG Thank you

This is Beautiful!! :) Long time didn't go to have High tea at Bangkok. Looking forward to go back soon. Please try to get a beautiful shot at Lord jims, My Family really love food overthere.
A little too white for my liking, but what a beautiful venue. The high tea looked great too. nicely done guys.
Tin Tin Thank you for comment tintin : Babe
Wow looks very plush there !
What a fancy place! Babe is so cute. 😁
Hcg Manila Thank you (/\) Babe :)
A good introduction to the Oriental Bangkok's Afternoon Tea ...!
Liked!
Good
I love your chanel
Thank you!
Really enjoy your video. I would have asked them to boxes the leftover. They are too pretty and tasty looking to be tossed...that if you are allowed.
I’m going to the mandarin for lunch in a few weeks but eating in the veranda restaurant. Might try and get a coffee in there after
Maybe too personal so not a problem if you care not to say: "Do you guys get comped for videoing these establishments? If not you must both have well paying careers to afford weekly shootings! Lol
I'm amazed at some of the places I've seen and the costs to enjoy. I'm wondering if the wait staff you had is paid above the average wage of a Thai. That had to be a wonderful experience for Babe and you.
Thank you!
Hi Stephen, we do spend a great deal of money on our channel as we are passionate about food and making videos. We do reviews part time only but if we could we would go full time. Regarding wait staff salaries it is my understanding that most hotels share services fees among all staff but I’m not 100% sure. Thanks for watching.
thanks for the video. How was the tea itself? I love a good cup of tea. Loose leaf tea? I would be disappointed if it was a tea bag. I would not pay much for a tea bag.
I love her 😆
Nice Vdo, Normally this place has to asked for permission everytime when filming?
Yes, we always ask permission first.
ว้าวววววว
Do you get complimentary food or get paid to go to all of these expensive places that you review? It also seems that you enjoy everything and always have high praise.
Hi Rob, we invest a lot of money making these videos. I hope that shows in terms of the quality of the restaurant and also the videos themselves. We give careful consideration to which restaurants we choose to review as our videos require a great deal of time and effort to produce. Hence, it makes no sense to review a place that is bad. Food critic Babe is an encyclopedia of restaurant knowledge that we utilize to find only the best places to share. Thanks for watching.
Hi Brian, Do you get paid by the hotel or restaurant for making the videos? Your videos remind me of the property videos. Very pretty, bleached out, slow pans that showcase the property to entice the watcher to purchase or rent the property. It would be good to know if you are being paid by the restaurant or hotel that you are reviewing.
Hi Rob, we do not get paid for our videos but I wish we did. Thanks for the compliment about our video quality. We think our producer Nut does an outstanding job.
I think that your producer Nut does an amazing job. The videos are very polished. Maybe he does too good of a job that the videos look like an infomercial? It must take a tremendous amount of time for you to set everything up, film, and edit. Have you considered a less bleached out, less set up, and more realistic look like Mark Wiens? It would make your videos have a more authentic and natural feel.
Rob Vira I think this is Brian and Babe’s style. Their videos are elegant and informative and aesthetically pleasing. It’s actually pretty hard to find this style of videos on high end restaurants in Bangkok. I seriously think hotels and restaurants should start paying money for these fabulous videos:)
How much is the Afternoon Tea and can You go anyday if the Week.
Everyday 12:-17:30 Asian and Western sets 1,450 baht ++ per person - mind the dress code and book in advance - enjoy!
You guys really need to understand the meaning of 'background music'. The music drowns out what is being said.
Bangkok Quality of Food the exeptional Mandarin I write for hours my taste buds teased into gasps of pleasure the Wines on offer from their World wide treasure of entertaining those guests who like the best meet me there writing to share a glass or two
i would think you would dress for a luxury tea . try going for tea in londons top hotels with jeans, you will be eating by the door.
เจ๊..ไอ้แมงพรรค์นั้นเขาเรียก finger sandwiches แถวบ้านใช้มือหยิบเลยนะ ดูอั้งม้อคนนั้นดิ คว้าหมับเลย
Please remove the music!
We who hear badly will not enjoy your videos when we dont hear what you're saying.
Plz lady top saying mmm at every mouthful 🙈
I eat here a few times a week. Tired of seeing tossers come in and talk so many photos
