Okay, if you come to NYC, you are usually not looking for English food, but this is the BEST of English food.
If anything, just go for their “high tea” complete with scones, clotted cream, strawberry jam, cucumber sandwiches and your choice of really English teas. You can get trifle, victoria sponge, strawberry and rhubarb crumble and a real lamb pie or beef and guiness pie, with peas and carrots. There is a superb beet salad and the welsh rarebit (basically the MOST AMAZING cheese-on-toast you will ever have).
So, have some tea!
It is tiny. Yes, I love tiny crowded places where you can practically jump into the kitchen and easily make a new friend. Everyone there speaks British English, and you will only be seated once your whole party is there. There are benches outside, if you need to wait for someone.
And if you're lucky, you'll get to meet the owner, Nicky. She's great!
