Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Winthrop

Great food and great staff! The food was absolutely delicious and the tea selection was wide. I would highly reccomend afternoon tea here.

For two battle-fatigued parents looking for some adult time away from the kids, Silver Dove was exactly the reprieve we needed. As soon as we walked in, we appreciated the restaurant’s small, quiet, intimate vibe. This was matched by the rest of our experience. The staff was attentive, courteous, and kind. The drink menu was expansive, yet not overwhelming. The food was absolutely delicious, with a special shout-out to the coronation chicken and the prosciutto-wrapped dates. On our way out, we bought a gift card to share the Silver Dove with some family members. We can’t wait to hear about the experience, and we’re already eager for our next one, too.

This is always my first choice for out-of-town guests. The experience by the water, the impeccable service and ambiance, cannot be beat. None of this would matter though if the food was not consistently wonderful. The menu changes are delightful for me as there are always new imaginations of just great food. And for those guests of mine who still need the basics, of course there was chowder and lobster roll. We had one quest who asked about vegan options and another needed gluten-free. The waitstaff swiftly provided the extra menu with those distinctions. A Perfect way to address the needs; so classy. I highly recommend that one reserves a table well in advance in the summer. It's a very busy waterfront. In colder weather, just go to enjoy the great food, beautiful setting, and very best service.

My daughter and I had a lovely tea here last Sunday. The little store front was so charming, mismatched tea cups and china put together to make a cozy setting indeed. Excellent choice of teas with descriptions of each which was very helpful for selecting just the right one. Tea sweets and savories were homemade and outstanding. We ordered one regular and one vegetarian for the savory choices and it suited each of us well. Will come back again soon!

Such a beautiful room, and delicious tea along with a tower of high tea treats. Perfect!
