|  | | A sanctuary of sanity...much needed break | Jan 6, 2011 | | I have visited a couple of tea rooms, none in Colorado, but decided to take my best friend and mother of small kids away for an afternoon when I visited Denver. We arrived before our reservation time, had to wait a bit, but got seated at a nice table. The hostess apologized that our scones were still in the oven, but on arrival they were steaming hot, yum! We followed the scones with a soup course--curried carrot for me and potato leek for my friend. Both were out of this world delicious and served at perfect temperature. The server was very attentive, without hovering. Finally, the savory/sweets tray arrived and we both ate too much of everything. Make the time to go--this was more fun than a spa day! |
| | Lunch and Dinner | Feb 26, 2011 | | The lunch and dinner menu is fantastic. I ate most of my meals there the whole week and they were all great. I never knew British food could be so good. The Crisps (home made, hot, potato ... I've ever stayed at. I travel quite a bit for work and have stayed in a lot of different hotels all over North America. The only thing you'll pay extra for is lunch and dinner. They serve one of the best breakfasts you'll ever have at any price, let alone for free. No powdered/microwaved eggs here, You can get just about anything and everything from real omelets to home made waffles. To top it off, they also have a wide selection of beer, wine, and spirits from the U.K. I could go on and on but the bottom line is the Hilltop is flat out great. It is so homey and friendly that staying there made for a great week. |
