What a charming little place. I visited with friends. They had tea; I had the tea sandwiches assortment.
Great service and wonderful food. I had to have a scone for home! Now I think I need to return to buy some hummingbird (like the cake) tea! Highly recommended.
This is truly an amazing place. The ambiance is authentic and the tea selection fits everyone’s taste buds. The tea sandwiches and savories are mouth watering. The hosts are also a pleasure to chat with and genuinely care about your experience. I recommend this place for the experience. We will be going again.
I’ve been going to this place for years, and just when I was about to bring my two closest friends there, the original owners finally sold the business. I’m glad they were able to retire, but I was anxious about if this place would be different food-wise and with the atmosphere. Luckily, everything is pretty much the same, including the butterscotch scones with clotted cream I’m addicted to. They’re still good about food restrictions, and were able to accommodate 1 vegetarian, and 2 people with pork and fish sensitivities. My friends were impressed with the tea leaf samples they brought out for us to smell and help us decide what tea we wanted with our meal. The new owners are sweet too, and I hope they continue to thrive.
The worst reviews on here are usually from people who tried to go in without a reservation and got turned away, so always make sure you have one! Luckily with the new owners, they’ve revamped the website to make it more modern and easy to make reservations without calling (but you can still do that too if technology isn’t your thing). Highly, highly, hiiiiighly recommend to those who love a traditional feeling tea time.
Loved the experience!
Great atmosphere and they were great with my 3 year old.
Reservations, reservations, reservations! You really need to make reservations to get a table as it is a small business with few tables. Walking in off the street you are less likely to get service. It was a wonderful spot for tea. The teas are loose leaf fine quality blends that really make the experience. Wide range of flavors to choose from and individually or group pots. The tea sandwiches were authentic and delicious. You have to try each one because no two are alike. The piece of resistance is the sconces. These are to die for. Now you just need to decide cream first or jam first. I can’t wait to go back.
