    The savory Sammie is always a great choice along with the delicious scone with strawberry jam, lemon curd and clotted cream!

    Sweet tea house. Went there for daughter’s birthday. She had a wonderful time. Service was great and the food and tea were great. Loved the hats you could wear to feel special.

    Everything was wonderful. The staff is very friendly and very accommodating. It was my second Christmas Tea with my daughter inlaw and my granddaughters. We all had a lovely time.

    Loved my experience at this tea house! Everyone was very welcoming and attentive. Even if I wasn't someone's table, they still made sure I was good and didn't need anything. I loved my tea (the cream vanilla is delicious) and all the fun little tea cakes and scone that came with my order. The place was cute and decorated for Christmas. I loved seeing all the little girls, or moms and daughters enjoying tea together. I am looking forward to going again.

    The server was very friendly and very helpful with helping us learn how the tea system worked/what to order. The afternoon tea tier is a phenomenal way to sample a variety of food, great for first timers and worth the price if you’re with a small party. Tea was elegantly delicious. The only complaint I can even think of is the room is a little chilly but we were also sitting next to windows. Overall it was an amazing experience and would highly recommend.
