Went there recently with a friend for high tea. Nice ambience. Nice selection of tea sandwiches and scones. Not much of a selection of drinks other than tea or water. It would be nice if they were able to offer Champagne for the high tea but they don't have a wine license. They do allow you to bring your own. They seem to be very lightly staffed and it did take quite a while when we had a request. The tea was very nice and the food was good quality. Nice traditional tea house. Shelves lined with really cute teapots and other items for sale. Prices are in line with what you would expect for a high tea. They do need better service and they also need to pay attention as the tablecloth at our table was dirty and should have been changed before we were seated. It would also be nice to see additional beverage selections, especially for those who don't drink tea. Perhaps some sparkling mineral water options and a selection of soft drinks. Overall a nice experience and it would be a nice place to host an event.
Perfect spot to spend time with your girlfriends!!
Very nice place. Owner is very nice. Lots of tea options, lunch options and dessert
Always love this place for a special treat!
TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! I arrived with my service dog and they didn't give me service! They don't have a sign outside that they don't accept service pets! The person who served us was very rude and rude! It's sad!
Perfect spot for girlies date. Nice environment and afternoon tea service.
A place of ambience and peace. This tea room isn't exactly the place for fine dining or stellar quality food for that matter as it's the experience you have around this place that makes it or breaks it for you. I came early in the morning being one of their first customers of the day. The service was quick and polite. I observed the server partaking in conversation with other patrons which tells me this place is a favorite with regulars. The wide selection of tea and mixed matched silverware gives the place a of imperfect perfection as whilst not picturesques it's definitely a place with spirit and charm hidden and stowed away in every corner ready to be discovered. Definitely a place to visit with friends and family
Great environment and tasty food.
The atmosphere was relaxing, the tea was fabulous but the cashier man was rude and raised his voice angrily for no reason, also, we were told they were closing despite making a reservation at the specific hour and being there on time. Beside that, it was ok.
Our family's favorite tea house. We go for lunch or a celebration.

At the time, I visited with a friend who had made the reservation, and the group was split across two tables, with each table billed separately. I placed my card on the receipt for the portion I intended to pay and received only one receipt. However, when both tables' bills were combined and I went back to clarify, I received an unreasonable response, suggesting I should get the information from the friend I came with. It felt as though the waiters were justifying their own calculation errors and lack of explanation, and this was accepted at other tables at the time as well. We are unable to get information since we did not exchange contact details with the other guests. As I did not receive a receipt, I considered the calculation invalid and proceeded with the dispute.
First time here , came for my birthday ?. Amazing service and great atmosphere. Feels like you traveled somewhere else for afternoon tea very relaxing and enjoyable. I’m also a Huge matcha lover and the matcha tea was amazing; also had the lavender tea which was also amazing. I highly recommended; will definitely be coming back. ☺️

It was good. All kinds of tea kettles, cups, and exquisite tea sets I will recommend this tea restaurant to others. It is a great outing.

Even though the tea was lovely, they did not have vegan options for afternoon tea. I made a reservation for two and asked for vegan options, I called the day before and explicitly asked if they had a vegan option for afternoon tea, and was told yes. We arrived on time only to discover that they indeed do not offer a vegan afternoon tea. The options were a $17 unimaginative salad and a $16 boring "panini" with a salad (spinach leaves and balsamic vinaigrette). I chose the "panini" which consisted of toasted wheat bread with cooked bell peppers and onion, that's it. The one thing I appreciated was that they did have almond milk (surprise!). The server was nice and attentive who apologized for lack of choices. If I were to come back, it would be to buy tea and accessories, only.
