    The savory Sammie is always a great choice along with the delicious scone with strawberry jam, lemon curd and clotted cream!

    Loved my experience at this tea house! Everyone was very welcoming and attentive. Even if I wasn't someone's table, they still made sure I was good and didn't need anything. I loved my tea (the cream vanilla is delicious) and all the fun little tea cakes and scone that came with my order. The place was cute and decorated for Christmas. I loved seeing all the little girls, or moms and daughters enjoying tea together. I am looking forward to going again.

    The server was very friendly and very helpful with helping us learn how the tea system worked/what to order. The afternoon tea tier is a phenomenal way to sample a variety of food, great for first timers and worth the price if you’re with a small party. Tea was elegantly delicious. The only complaint I can even think of is the room is a little chilly but we were also sitting next to windows. Overall it was an amazing experience and would highly recommend.

    I enjoyed the food but it wasn’t very much overall for the amount paid for. The table was very small and didn’t give us a lot of room for everything.
