This place is a MUST! I have been going for tea here since I was 6 and it will forever be my favourite place. The owner is the cutest lady and her whole shop is so quirky and cutesy. It is exactly what you imagine a little lady tea party to be. The scones are something i dream about regularly and the jam and whipped butter she makes is to die for. The tea selection is great but I always get the same thing. The food is really good too, great staple British foods. The store front is really cute and she sells lots of awesome stuff – tea cups/pots, tea, dolls, cards, knickknacks, etc. Really fun original pieces. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this place!!
HIGH-TEA ROBBERY!!!. Terribly expensive for what is was. $40 dollars a person for one pot of tea and a small platter of food. The platter comprised of 5 tiny sandwiched that properly didn’t even equal to an entire sandwich. A scone which retails for 2 bucks at the most. A tiny cheese filled pastry and a array of a few more tiny deserts, as well as a few other things. All in all I would say that the actual cost of the food platter was probably around 5 to 7 dollars. You even had to pay for an extra pot of tea! I would have been willing to spend $20 dollars on this experience, however $40 is absolutely insane. For that much I could have went out and had s steak and a glass of wine. By the way, I have NEVER in my life wrote a review for anything. that just goes to show how blown away I am by this ridiculous price, and this is coming from someone who is currently, and has been working in the restaurant service industry for 10 years. I am well aware of how pricing works, and this is in fact high-tea robbery!J.P
Great Place For An Afternoon Tea!. I enjoy everything Victorian so when I saw this place, I thought that I better give it a try! When I first walked in, I noticed that there was a gift shop with tons of great items; from plates to napkins, almost anything Victorian that you can imagine to decorate your kitchen. I went to the desk and was approached by a lovely woman. I explained that I was interested in having a tea. The woman walked me to the back of the store where there were tables and chairs set up for an afternoon tea. I sat at a table for two and admired the beautiful dcor on the walls and on the tables. I was amazed at how close it looked to a formal tea room, it looked great! I settled on the vanilla bayou tea with a warm tea biscuit. The kind woman came back about ten minutes later with a large pot of tea and a warm tea biscuit. The tea biscuit was the best I have ever tried, it was soft and warm, it was AMAZING! The tea was also wonderful, with a jug of milk and sugar accompanying it. I realized after this experience that having tea in a tea room is much better than having it at home. In total, my bill came out to about $8; not too bad considering I was given a large pot of tea with an exquisite tea biscuit, not to mention the stellar environment. Will definitely be back when I am in the area!
