Such a good place! It was my first time at a tea room and the owner was so sweet! We felt so comfortable and the food is the best. Scones were perfect! Will be back asap.
If you like tea rooms you will love this awesome little place. It closes by 4pm. We enjoyed the cream Tea (2 scones each, lemon curd, raspberry jam, butter and a pot of Southern Peach). Many teas to choose from. They also have afternoon teas which you must make a reservation. Special high tea events (in the fall). The owner Kym is a fine host. The atmosphere is classic tea room.
Wonderful establishment!! Kim is an exceptional hostess. Tea was great; finger sandwiches and pastries were delicious!! We celebrated our friend's birthday and she was delighted. We will definitely be back!! Can't think of anything that needs improvement...??

The owner is so rude. What a shame because the place looks charming. I made a reservation for my daughters birthday for 2 pm on a Saturday. She called me the same day after 12 but I was at the gym so I called back 20 mins later. To be YELLED at that we didn’t show up for our reservation at 12! I normally work out at that time on Saturdays so I’m pretty sure that my reservation was at 2 pm (that’s what I put in my calendar) and I apologized about the mix up. It is possible that I got it wrong. Anyways, the woman was very angry still after I apologized like three times and I asked if we could reschedule to which she said ‘I’ll call you back, I’m with a customer’. Never called back. Figures.Anyway, we decided to give The Book & bee a try instead. Way more polite on the phone and they call the day before to confirm.I wouldn’t recommend this place

Celebrated a birthday today with my family. We drove over two hours to experience the tea room, and we were not disappointed!! Each of us had a different type of tea from what seemed to be one of the largest tea menus I have seen in a tea room, and the tea tray was not only attractively put together, but every item on it was delicious. The chicken salad and scones both made lasting impressions on me, but I was especially surprised by a lovely large cupcake I got to share with my family at the end. There were three parties of adults and a child's birthday party all happening, but we were all scheduled so that we could be attended to appropriately. The tearoom itself is comfortable and welcoming, just like the woman who runs it. I'm so glad we made the reservation (which is required - and makes complete sense when you see how smoothly things are run) for my day, and I can't wait until we go back again! Thanks so much!

Excellent service and food. The tea tower had many tempting treats. The Japanese black and the White peach tea served with it complemented the tea tower treats. I recommend this establishment highly.Vegetarian options: Depends on what kind of vegetarianism a person follows. A ovo lacto vegetarian will have no problem with this menu.
