3rd time here, whenever we are in the area. Tea room with an intimate log cabin feel.
My dad and I love going to afternoon teas and brunch. This place is the perfect mix of both! Food was delectable and their homemade orange spice tea blend is one of the best I have ever had! Highly recommend coming here for a pleasant, quaint dining experience.
A restaurant custom made for us ladies. Not just the decor - the food, too. The menu offerings are unique and uniquely feminine. I’ve lived in multiple states and countries, and dined in many lovely restaurants. This absolutely must be one of the most delightful restaurants I’ve ever enjoyed. Thank you for making such a sweet oasis in Knoxville. Can’t wait to bring my daughters here.

Applecake Tea Room is a charming spot with a friendly atmosphere that makes guests feel right at home, especially if they are missing their granny. The menu features a variety of delicious options, such as the chicken salad and banana bread sandwiches, along with the Tearoom Medley which is highly recommended and best enjoyed with their Friendship tea. The apple cake stands out as a dessert, reminiscent of an apple cinnamon coffee cake with nuts. The spiced tea, more like mulled cider than traditional spiced tea, pairs perfectly with the cake. The decor may not appeal to everyone, but the service is consistently welcoming and quick. Prices have increased, but the quality of the food justifies it. The tea room is kid-friendly and offers a welcoming atmosphere for all ages, with vegetarian options like the great fruit boat and the ability to accommodate dietary restrictions. Visitors often find the food delightful and fresh, and the cozy, inviting environment makes it a great spot for a light lunch or tea party. The staff, especially the server, are known for making excellent suggestions and providing impeccable service.
