Jim Thompson Tea Room - Brinchang, Pahang

Such a quaint and cosy hotel the moment you step in. Love the colonial charm, yet it feels very comfortable. Staff were super friendly and welcoming too.

Went for the afternoon tea and it was really enjoyable. The live piano in the background made it extra relaxing.

Scones were the star for me – good and the strawberry jam wasn’t too sweet, just nice. The rest of the tea set was great too.

Being on the search for some of the best scones in Cameron Highlands, we ended up here for the Hightea set.

The Jim Thompson Tea Room seems to be a busy spot for the hotel guests, and even as we walked in, the staffs were immediately alert and asked if we were here for the high tea, then invited us to sit at the Library area as they clean & prepare.

The Jim Thompson Tea Room gives you the feeling that you've stepped back in time as the crisp uniformed waiters serve up the set, while you sit back and relax to the soothing music of the resort's resident pianist.

The scones were good, and it pairs really well with the clotted cream and strawberry jam. No butter was offered, but the cream was really good - which we requested for seconds and the waiter immediately brought us another plate.

The top bit pastries were mostly too sweet for my liking. Even with the standard hotel coffee (refillable), it wasn't able to wash down the sugar overload.

If you like being in a lovely relaxing setting, live accompanying piano music and with attentive waiters, and don't mind the price tag, this spot is lovely to be able to sit back and actually hear one another talk.

The search for the best scones continues...

The high tea experience at Jim Thompson Tea Room was a highlight of my visit to Cameron Highlands. Nestled within the Cameron Highlands Resort, the tea room offers a peaceful and elegant setting, despite the hotel’s location near the main road. Once inside, you’re greeted with colonial-style charm, plush armchairs, and large windows that let in natural light and greenery from the outside. A live pianist played soft melodies throughout the afternoon, adding a refined and tranquil touch to the overall ambience.

The high tea set was beautifully arranged and delicious. It featured freshly baked scones served warm with clotted cream and strawberry jam, a variety of finger sandwiches including smoked salmon and cucumber, savoury quiches, and an assortment of dainty pastries and desserts. Everything was paired with a pot of aromatic Cameron Highlands tea, perfectly brewed and served in fine china.

The service was attentive, with staff regularly checking in to ensure our comfort. It was an unhurried, indulgent experience, perfect for relaxing after a morning of sightseeing or escaping the cooler highland weather. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just want to treat yourself, this is a must visit spot in Cameron Highlands.

The restaurant is located within the Cameron Highlands Resort. The building has a peaceful surrounding, and a colonial design that does not look old. The tea lounge is similarly well maintained, clean, and retains it rustic charm. Service is excellent and setting is comfortable. Food is nothing to shout about and a bit pricey. But you are paying for the atmosphere and dining experience.

Sala da te in stile inglese, dove si può prendere del buon tè con eccellenti scones o fare una merenda con piccoli tramezzini (con salmone affumicato, uova e pollo), pasticcini e scones con marmellata al costo di 130rm per due persone. È possibile ordinare anche cocktail.
Esperienza da provare almeno una volta se si è in zona.

A very delightful afternoon tea experience in a beautifully maintained and comfortable setting. The service was amazing—friendly and attentive—and the hotel's meticulous upkeep adds to the charm.

The afternoon tea set was delicious, with unlimited tea that paired perfectly with the treats. The scones stood out as some of the best we’ve had, but the portions of cream and jam were disappointingly small. Even after requesting more, the servings felt a bit stingy.

The spacious and inviting atmosphere, complemented by live piano music, made the entire experience incredibly pleasant. If you’re visiting the Highlands, this is an experience not to miss!

カフェ巡り大好き

優雅な気分になれる素敵なアフタヌーンティー！お値段もKLと比較すると安く、この雰囲気をこの値段で味わえるのはとてもお得だと思います。ピアノマンのおじいちゃんがいて、生演奏も楽しむことができます。
お菓子はシンプルな物が多く、どれも普通に美味しかったです。ティーサンドイッチはチキンとサーモン、胡瓜の3種類がありました。
そして、キャメロンハイランドで食べたスコーンの中ではここのスコーンが一番美味しかったです。ちゃんとクロテッドクリームが添えられていて、スコーン自体もバターの味がしっかり感じられました。
紅茶がボーティーだったり、店員の方が中々捕まらなかったりと、100点とは言えないかもしれませんが、お値段を考えると試す価値大アリです。
