We hosted my sister’s wedding shower at High Tea with Gerri, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience. Gerri is so lovely to work with, as is her team of planners and servers. They were quick to respond to questions, and helped us incorporate some special touches that were meaningful to our family. They truly went above and beyond!The room was absolutely lovely, and all of our guests commented on the decor and beautiful settings. The food was delicious, and I wish I could have eaten more! Everything on the menu is lovingly crafted with an artistic eye, and tastes as good as it looks!As a business owner in the hospitality sector, I know the amount of hard work that goes into delivering a top notch experience for guests. High Tea with Gerri is one of the few businesses I’ve found who live up to the same standards I uphold for my business. You can’t go wrong with booking them.

We came on Friday for a 1 year old birthday party with 5 adults and a baby. There were only 2 tables occupied, ours and another table. They accommodated a different table for us but never brought a high chair for the baby, even though when I called to make a reservation I asked for a high chair and said that we would have a baby with us and it is the baby’s bday. They never brought even a candle for the baby. The service was awful. I constantly had to go and ask for something and there were not busy at all - only 2 tables in the entire restaurant wi people eating. The tea was cold. We asked for hot water for the baby and it was barely warm. Totally overpriced for the service and the food. Would not recommend.

Visited afew years back.Very nice place. Friendly and very cute. If American I'm sure you'll love it.However If your from the Uk, it's not at all like the high tea that's expected when in the uk. The sandwiche fillings were notthing like an English tea. slightly dry around the edges. We were disappointed.

This was a cute place, service & ambiance were fantastic. The food was meh for the price and quality. Sandwiches were tiny, I mean I know tea time is meant to be small cute finger foods, but this was very small, Think quarter to half dollar coin size. There was literally one super thin slice of protein (think buddig ham) on the sandwiches so it was mostly bread. We thought the tea was poor as well, bitter taste. Save yourself the money and go to Russian Tea Time or the Drake.

We had a delightful time enjoying High Tea with Gerri. We had made reservations ahead of time but unfortunately one of our friend became sick and could not attend. At first we were told we would have to still pay for the missing person, but later they did take the extra charge off of our bill which was really appreciated. We did understand that all of the preparation for our high tea was made ahead of time and the last minute change to our reservation was of no fault of theirs. The only downside to our experience is that we were seated with a 9 year old's birthday celebration group. This made for a LOUD experience and we were under the impression we were going to have a refined more intimate afternoon.

We enjoyed Tea with Geri yesterday and we had an amazing time. Geri&her staff did an amazing job at making us comfortable and kept the tea flowing. The tea was nice& hot, finger sandwiches/pastries were delicious. I would recommend Geri's to anyone that enjoys a nice cup of tea.Parking: There are only a few spaces up front but there is more in the back.parking is a little tight due to sharing with other business's.

This is really a fun place for celebrations or get togethers with close girlfriends. Galentines day would be fun here, too! We enjoyed the hats, food, and decor. The tea selection was great. Finger food could have been better with more of it. Enjoyed dressing up at home in pretty dresses and arriving to choose a matching hat that they have available in all shapes, sizes, and styles to borrow for the tea time. This experience can get pricey, and also service could have been more attentive with more refils on the tea, but we will be back because it is so unique.

Lovely setting, and service. Their tea selection was delicious, being a Holiday tea flavor. I can't imagine a nicer way to spend New Year's Eve afternoon
