Sweet Magnolias Tea Bistro

Very nice atmosphere. Food is pretty good and service is great. Tabitha was a great waitress!

Went to lunch with my granddaughter & really enjoyed it.

This was our first time here for a baby shower and it was incredible. The food, the service, the atmosphere, everything was 10/10! The whole building is beautifully decorated and very clean.
Our waitress Myriel (not sure if I spelled her name correctly) was nice, very attentive and helpful! The rest of the staff were also great too. The raspberry lemonade was a personal favorite! We will definitely be back and ask for Myriel as our waitress! Thank You

I’d say our afternoon tea experience was very underwhelming for the price. Shocking that tea isn’t included in afternoon tea! Even more shocking that our waitress told us she wasn’t allowed to give us a to go cup to take our extra tea with us. I could understand not giving out a whole fresh cup, but considering we had to pay extra for our pots, I was surprised. The scones were good but the sandwiches left something to be desired. The coconut cake was also good, but we found it strange that we were supposed to cut up the one big slice between three people.
Service was friendly, but too expensive for what it is.

I don't say this lightly, a true hidden jem!. Wonderful service. Abiance is like going to grandmas or that aunties house that has grandmas recipies.
Food is always amazing and consistent.
Tea is fantastic.
Thanks you and i hope more people find this fantastic place.

Had a very nice day food was amazing potato salad was the best broccoli sales was delicious my friends love it had a great time

Simply amazing experience and owner. A must-visit!

I will be telling my grandkids about these key lime scones. Incredible hospitality and incredible food. Huge shoutout to Tabitha for everything. Seriously though, those scones…😮‍💨

The staff was so nice and helpful. The food is amazing and the tea is GREAT! Would go back to Auburndale just for this place.

Best scone I’ve ever had in my life. The key lime scone is absolutely to die for. Also the tea is absolutely incredible. Not to mention Tabitha, such an amazing owner and was so kind. Even if you’re not a local, this place is WORTH THE TRIP. Can’t recommend enough.

Sweet Magnolias took great care of us as we celebrated my daughters 4th Birthday! Her request was a princess tea party, and High Tea was beautiful and scrumptious. The recommendation of pink lemonade for the youngins was awesome and they loved the cottage tea pot it came in.

Went there with my mom & daughter- excellent place, cute, great service, awesome food ? loved the scones
Can’t wait to go again ?

Thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Sweet Magnolias Tea Room. Our server was very pleasant and attentive. My food, the quiche, scones, broccoli salad, and the apple hibiscus tea were all delicious. I am looking forward to a second visit to try something different on the menu???.

I researched tea rooms in the area and decided upon this one for an out of town guest.
It was an absolute disappointment but also I left being extremely insulted.

The service took a long time and we waited patiently for our tea and food. The quiche was so hard that you could knock the table with it. Our potato soup came out cold. We sent it back and it came back to us a little better but was a very thick consistency.

I had already put a 50% discount down of $40 for our reservation. complained to our server about our experience and told her that I felt we should not have to pay the additional money for such a poor experience and food that we did not eat. She stated that she needed to call the owner. We waited and finally I went to the front to find that they were on the phone with the owner. When they got off the phone I was told that the owner instructed my server to escort us out of the restaurant. They then slammed the door in our face. We were not loud, nor did we cause a scene. We simply complained about poor service Instead of an apology for such a poor experience, we were escorted out of the restaurant.

I do not recommend this tea room at all.
