The food was so beautifully made, looked so appealing, and the taste was somehow even better. Absolutely delicious food. The Asparagus with prosciutto was 1 of the best things I have ever tasted. The place is so unique and inviting. Chef Emily is amazing, can not say enough about how awesome she is. My wife and I definitely can not wait to come back.

We attended Tea at The Ardmore on Saturday, January 18, and it was such a lovely experience. The building itself is full of charm—beautiful, cozy, and full of character. It truly sets the tone the moment you walk in.
The service was excellent. Everyone was kind, attentive, and made us feel genuinely welcome without being overbearing. It felt relaxed, thoughtful, and well-paced.
And the homemade scones… absolutely delicious. Fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care—honestly one of the highlights of the afternoon.
Tea at The Ardmore is a wonderful place to slow down, enjoy good food, and soak in a charming atmosphere. Highly recommend, and we’ll definitely be back.
This restaurant is in a old house with multiple rooms for small groups. It is charming with good food and drinks.

So very disappointed last evening. Been an Ardmore customer for 10+ years. The difference from what it was to what it is was jolting! Service, food, drinks, ambiance...I was embarrassed to have taken my friends there. Bad night? maybe--- Need to step up the game to maintain the expected high quality and experience.

The atmosphere in the front of the house is quaint. Unfortunately our group of 14 were seated in the back area and not appealing. We had to wait 30 minutes for hot water and it was served out of a cheap carafe. She never had enough to refill all the teacups. Kept going back and forth. The server went around the table to each person if they wanted sugar or honey stick. Then he passed out creamers. This took forever. They should have these items already set up on the table for patrons. There were no teaspoons so we had to ask. The scones were delicious. The white bread sandwiches were skimpy and not impressive. They only provided five types of tea bags and again, we had to ask for more. They were stingy on food quantity. Some patrons were not able to get some items. We asked and waited and the server only came with a few items. One of the servers did not smile and she appeared to be annoyed with us. It was extremely slow and understaffed. There was a 20% tip included. It was a high price of $30 that had a 20% gratuity added on. The workers seem to do their best but again, understaffed. Then there's the smell of the area. It's very old and musty. A couple people were bothered and sneezed often. It needs a deep clean and proper air filtration. The owner needs to improve the overall training of a proper tea service. Purchase hot water containers that can be left on the tables. Have the tables set-up with creamers, honey sticks and sugar cubes for the patrons to help themselves instead of waiting for one server to slowly go around asking.
I felt sorry for the server, as he was doing it all. There was so many items missing from the menu, they would have been better off not serving at all.
Wonderful and so charming!

We went to The Ardmore for the first time last weekend and it exceeded our expectations! The history of the building was so interesting and it was kept up so nicely. Everything we ordered was delicious (try the apricot chicken!) and our waiter was friendly and attentive. I highly recommend this place for a date night or when you want a restaurant that’s quiet enough for a good conversation. We will definitely be going back!

I love dining at The Ardmore! The food is always spectacular and the staff is just the sweetest. Not to mention, the building itself is just beautiful. I don't usually leave online reviews, but The Ardmore truly stands out amongst other dining locations I have ate at. It deserves to have the good word spread about it! Always have I felt so welcomed, cared for, and comfortable at this establishment. Waiter Brad is the absolute bestest! I am so proud to have a restaurant like The Ardmore apart of my community.

Don’t turn away business just because you make too many reservation. Bad business
Charming restaurant with a dedicated and professional staff. Bar drinks were quite good (sidecar) and the food was delicious and inventive. Love the Ardmore!
