Popped in on Friday 21st February 2025 with my friend for a coffee & hot chocolate. Before placing our order we were informed by the (very nice) staff that there was a MINIMUM spend of £23 per person. We thought they were joking.Who wants to fork out £46 for two hot drinks simply for the privilege of sipping them in the hotel lobby, or the bar area? We'd had lunch already elsewhere, so didn't want anything else to eat at that point - just a coffee/hot chocolate, which we have had dozens of times before at The Ritz when in London. And when we looked at the menu to see if we were prepared to 'make up' our spend to £23 EACH, we discovered that the cheapest dessert was £24. YES - £24 for a slice of cake.The powers that be at The Ritz are taking the mickey. Shame on you.We went, instead, to the Savoy, where we had a wonderful time in the American Bar - with no minimum spend.We won't step foot in The Ritz again. You have taken greed & profiteering to a whole new level.
