English Tea House & Restaurant in Sandakan is located on a little hill overlooking the majestic Sandakan Bay, this unique place is also housed in a meticulously renovated colonial English house and is surrounded by 1.5 acres of perfectly manicured lawns complete with a Croquet Pitch and outdoor seating. Anyone visit Sandakan should at least visit this place for some good old traditional English cooking or for a tea and scones session. The English Teahouse is also run by a non-Malaysian which gives the place a lot of character..

Beautiful place with a wonderful view of the ocean. Have a tea set or a meal.
This is confirm the best place to chill & especially for dating at Sandakan.. Highly recommended.. :p
Beautiful view of Sandakan and a wonderful place for high tea !
Very nice setting. Professional service and big smiles! I recommend this place for an afternoon drink or even lunch .
The Borneo Tasting Plate is a good dish to sample local flavors for foreigners. For locals the crumpets and tea set is a good bargain.
We tried the beef rendang and fried noodles (chicken ), both very tasty and flavory
Pleasant garden with sea-view, enjoy a glass of Pimm's & Sprite on ice...
SHEPHERD'S PIE..a rich helping of succulent lamb , mashed potatoes , cheese & served with buttered vegetables ..are worth a TRY..!
Loving its ambience and such a beautiful place for families get together. Fall in love with its concept in instant!
Great place to sit and relax. Some criticise the scones and service but my experience with both is good.
Shepherd pie is one of a kind. Cheese on top, harvesting lamb and potatoes and tomatoes inside.
Awesome sheperd's pie .. Should try the english tea set as well .. But dont order with other dishes..
Nice spot for a morning brunch (club sandwich , royal tea set ) and to play some croquet :-)
Food can be much better, pretty much everything lacked flavour. Nice environment though, very picturesque
try their coffee ..PREMIUM FILTER was fab!!
Wonderful view . Nice place to relax
Shepard's pie was good, but the veggies were there probably for a week though. Looked dull and fermenting (( Service slow and not efficient.
Happy hour from 2100 till 2300 daily.. :p
Nice palace and good view , having tea time here is the best place....
This place is quite mismanaged. Grass cutting when I’m having my tea , the scones are not freshly baked, uses low quality jam and the utensils are not clean
The apple crumble is a must try! It's heavenly nice!
Food taste average but worth the visit
Nice place for relax, great view of Sandakan town
Sunset at ETH
~ trip omputeh..hehe.. ~ ????
Nice place to relax after finishing the Heritage Trail
my wife loves the scones
Food is not so satisfying but it's a windy chilling place.
always relaxing
Slow but free wi-fi. Please note: drinks are on your own cost!

They don't really serve Chinese when there's foreign country 's customers... Should improve the service
Nice view ...
Very nice and calming place ..
The ambience is nice. But on close up everything's old and fading. The food is really bad though. Nothing English about the tea or scones .
1) scones are terrible. 2) iced chocolate is tasteless. 3) pricing is CRAZEE & superb crazee! 4) REFILL hot water for English B/fast Tea needs $! Come here to take a photo & you may leave this place!
Fish & chips and chicken shop was terrible. Not worth the price. I ordered scones but it tasted like stone. Horrible!
Ojan best was here!!!
Doesn't meet expectations. Hmmm.
Scones looked better than the taste. It was so-so.
nyam2 !! .....
Service sucks~~
Tips nya snang saja. Jalan2 ja ko sNA
