Skywater Tea House is a charming and elegant place for a high tea experience. The venue has a calming and classy atmosphere, with a minimalist style in cool whites, silvers, and blues. The small tea room feels comfortable and inviting, not cramped. The menu features a wide selection of teas, including white, black, green, oolong, pu'erh, flavored, and herbal tisanes, with detailed flavor notes for each. Guests can choose their own tea and try different varieties with each brewing. The tea is brewed in the kitchen and served in teapots, staying hot and fresh. The friendly and attentive staff often check if guests need refills or how the food is.
The food options are impressive, with a set selection of traditional tea fare served on a three-tier stand. The savory sandwiches, like cucumber and cream cheese, salmon, egg salad, and ham, are fresh and tasty. The scones, served with strawberry jam, clotted cream, and citrus curd, are just right—not too sweet or big. The sweet treats include Linzer tart cookies, gingerbread cupcakes, mint chocolate cakes, and a blueberry panna cotta, which many guests find delicious. Some reviews mention that the scones and sweets are good, but the panna cotta stands out as especially tasty. Portions are generous, and food is of good quality, with some guests bringing leftovers home.
Skywater Tea House's attentive service, reasonable prices, and cozy setting make it a favorite for high tea lovers. Whether celebrating a special occasion or just relaxing, visitors often leave satisfied and eager to return. The space is decorated with adorable decor, and the clean environment adds to the overall experience. Many guests appreciate the wide selection of teas, tasty food, and friendly atmosphere, making it a memorable and elegant destination.
