Each sip is a celebration of flavors dancing on your palate.

    The accommodations made for my wife's allergies were above and beyond. We did not feel that her multiple allergies negatively impacted our options, there was plenty of variety and it all felt well thought through. Service was very upbeat, conscientious, and personable. Very well done.

    A server was impeccable, but for some strange reason, they had the football game on, and the gentleman that was sitting in at the bar was rather loud, and I noticed the bartender never asked him to lower his tone

    A Beautiful location on the waterfront, can be seated with up to 12 people at the same booth/table if available. The service is fantastic, the tea delicious, the sandwich bites (some with lobster, cucumber, fruit and nuts, plus others), the fabulous scones, the many delicious deserts, all fantastic! more than enough to eat and drink. Going back to the service, couldn’t ask for better service and kind people. This is a great spot for afternoon tea/high tea 🫖

    This review is specifically for the Afternoon Tea. It claims to be the best afternoon tea in Boston. If it is, l'd hate to try the others. First up, we were brought the wrong tea. Earl grey instead of English breakfast. Whatever - we drank it anyway. After having to ask for milk several times. The scones were rock hard and came with butter and jam, not cream and jam. We had to ask for silverware again several times. The salmon cones were a highlight as was the chicken salad served in an eggshell. The two sandwiches (egg salad and pb&j were inedible with totally stale bread. The desserts were pretty good - the apple 'pie' and the chocolate tarts were tasty. Overall at $85 pp plus tax and service this was an epic fail. It looked pretty but definitely would not recommend.
