The Black Lantern Tea Room and Bakery

One of our favorite places to eat!! From the atmosphere, to the employees, to the food! Everything is amazing! Everything we have had is made fresh and tastes amazing!
The teas and coffees taste just right and the iced drinks are so full of flavor and never watered down tasting. Cant recommend the Black Lantern enough!

This lovely cafe with quality furniture & dishware was a great option for my afternoon treat! The pink lemonade cookie was thick and super soft w/ a generous dollop of lemon icing😋

A hidden gem in Asheboro. From the desserts to the savory foods this place doesn’t disappoint. Every employee is so personable and knows what I like and don’t like. My favorite sweet thing is the chocolate chip cookies. I know, it’s a classic. The best I have ever had and huge. My favorite iced tea right now is Lavender Clouds. I love that they have a huge tea selection. The sandwiches are to die for. Huge. So savory. If you are visiting Asheboro, this is the place you want to eat at.

Excellent lunch today!! I had the turkey pastrami sandwich and my husband had a chicken wrap with fresh dill. Everything is made with high quality ingredients and tastes very fresh. The atmosphere is always very aesthetically pleasing and the staff are polite. I’ve had many baked goods from here as well including the black and white cookies which are fantastic! Follow them on social media for daily updates and specials as well!

My go to place for my sweet tooth.

The servings were enough for two and delicious. The servers were helpful and friendly. The dessert was great! Plan to go back.

Really enjoyed my time here. Very cutely decorated in great taste. All brunch options are great and pretty neat tea selection as well! Highly recommend!

The shop is cute and the people working are nice but wasn’t very good not what I was expecting for 40 bucks not that impressed ended up throwing it away food and tea!!! But everyone has their opinion and mine was this wasn’t for me or my 16 year old son!!!

Delicious food with many options. I've also tried several of their teas, which have all been great!

Came in at busy lunch time. Staff was super helpful greeting and answering questions. Atmosphere is lovely. Decorations are so inviting. The sandwiches are huge and so tasty. Generous portions of meat and cheese. The treats in the case look so good we wanted to try every single one of them. Lots of different kinds of teas to try and buy. This is place is nothing short of amazing.

This place is a fantastic little gem. The aesthetician is just beautiful and lovely. The food is beautifully displayed...and also extremely delicious. Very generous portion sizes and super fresh and tasty. The sweet-faced servers are a breath of fresh air in an industry where service has been declining for decades. Helpful, chatty, and busy. I love everything about this place. More than even a quick lunch place or a great place for a cup of tea, it's the whole experience of the place that I adore.

Ordered onion soup.Very disappointing! There was way too much bread in it.There was a small amount of broth with some small onions.The rest of the bowl was chunks of bread almost like stuffing bread and on top of that some melted cheese.

Went here after having some dinner and had a cookie. We had their pimento cheese at another local place that sells it and it was one of the best I've had, unfortunately the cookie was just OK. We also got a couple muffins and they were much better. We had super high hopes after having tried their pimento cheese and crackers. Definitely the best of what we had. Thr bummer was we had leftover pimento cheese to take home but my husband put it down to buy the cookie and it was left there. Noooooooo 🙃

I wish this cafe was near me! I also wish they had stickers for merch 🤣 I was in town as part of my personal project to visit each of the 100 counties in NC.

The recommended London Fog was AMAZING and the apple cider cheesecake was seriously one of the best I'd ever had.

I had such a great hangout before checking out all the thrift/antiques in downtown Asheboro. Highly recommend!

The food is great including the menu items, the deli case and definitely the baked goods! I have enjoyed many of the teas, one of my favorites being a London Fog. The people are all very helpful, friendly and make you feel welcome! I recently ordered a waterfall cake, It tasted as amazing as it looked. Chelsea made this amazing cake without any artificial colors so my grandsons were able to eat it also😁
