Always a relaxing and rejuvenating way to spend an afternoon. Whether with friends or just 2 this is a great find in ABQ

It's amazing! Staff are all nice, the ambience is cozy, the food is great, and the place is just so beautiful. My only regret is not learning about them sooner.

Wonderful, always is, food is great, atmosphere is wonderful and the customer service is top notch. I don't know how many times we have come back.

Was treated to the St James Tearoom for my Birthday, by my friend Melissa. Had a blast! Will definitely be back!

I went with a friend in August and had an amazing time. One of the best experiences I’ve ever done. The staff were very friendly and kind. The food and tea selections were delicious and aesthetically pleasing. Adored the privates booths and overall atmosphere. I throughly enjoyed the experience and hope to return in the future. I would absolutely recommend!!

Remarkable indeed! Hong Kong Salad, Bombay Chicken and Potato SKewer, San Franciscan Meatloaf Sandwich...don't walk...take a plane, Balloon or car to get to this marvelous experence!!❤️

I have been here before and I remember it being such a pleasant time. But I am writing this review because I did have to cancel my birthday celebration After their 48 hour cancellation policy. My friend had a family emergency with her daughter and they were so understanding. The woman I spoke with on the phone was amazing and I really appreciate how kind she was. I’ll definitely recommend Saint James for the experience while you’re there but now I’ll also recommend them for how kind their employees are.

A perfect party place for any occasion. Teas are the focus and pair with the delicious bites from meat cakes, mini salads, cucumber sandwiches to breads and scones with whipped butters and berry tarts and cookies.

Lovely place. Food and tea are both amazing. We really appreciated that you get your own little cozy room with privacy. The price is worth the quality, service, and atmosphere. I only have 2 small complaints: While the grounds and interior are beautiful, the location within the city is hard to get to and in an industrial area. I wish they were somewhere closer to the center, like downtown or Nob Hill. The second complaint is our waitress who must be early 20s acted like she is 5 years old talking like a baby and trying to be super cutesy. Like way, way, way over the top. That was a bit weird.

Had a great birthday experience, the food and tea were amazing, the service was fantastic, and the tearoom itself was clean and offered such a great experience around the theme they had at the time. Will be returning for sure!

I’ve been to St. James a few times now, and every trip is a wonderful experience!! The staff is always friendly and kind, the food is of course always life changing, and the whole vibe of the place is like you’ve fallen right into a good book. My favorite so far has been the Winnie the Pooh theme, but we’ll be back for the Wizarding theme next Sunday! We’ve also done take out and did a themed date night at home, the food was just as amazing that way as well!! They give really detailed directions for how to do the teas and reheating the savory stuff!

Our visit to the St. James Tearoom was an absolutely delightful experience! This charming tearoom, offers a truly unique and elegant setting for enjoying a traditional British afternoon tea. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, with beautifully decorated nooks that make you feel like you’ve stepped back in time. They are always doing a theme and each one has been so well done!
The service was impeccable. The staff were attentive and professional, ensuring that every detail was perfect. The three-course tea service, featuring a wonderful selection of savories, breads, and sweets, all paired with fine teas. The food was delicious and beautifully presented.
One of the standout features of the St. James Tearoom is its rich history and dedication to creating a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The tearoom has been delighting guests for nearly 25 years, and it’s easy to see why it has become such a beloved institution in Albuquerque.
Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for a peaceful retreat, I highly recommend the St. James Tearoom. It’s a perfect spot to relax, reflect, and enjoy the finer things in life.
