Best Afternoon Tea Restaurants in Theater District

Authentic English Afternoon Tea steps away from the Freedom Trail. Outstanding selection of teas and tasty treats. All gluten free too which was a particularly exciting extra. Our multigenerational group had a fabulous time, appropriately capping off a Christmas treat to see the The Nutcracker

The noise was insanely loud. There was a party of probably 20+ women who were so loud and we were packed in and could barely move. The tea was delicious but we were never offered more hot water or able to order another tea. The food was great, nice variety and perfect bite sized fare. Unfortunately ours was served on a broken tiered plate that looked like it was ready to fall over. I think they should have a limit of people they can serve- perhaps only able to serve a table of 8 max? Or remove a few tables when they have such a large party at the least. It was just too loud and felt crammed in. Will try again with hopes that we can hear each other speak! Certainly not a calming “tea” experience.

Everything was perfect!!! Starting with rose petals on the table and a very attentive waiter- we were pampered with many courses of fabulous stones, tea sandwiches, and desserts! We even had “ freshly fallen snow” outside! Perfect!!! It’s on the pricy side- but worth every penny. Such a special time with my daughter and my 2 grand children- who loved everything! Thank you for a wonderful memory!

It is a lovely place. Good selection of teas and nice finger food to go with it. I just happened to be there when they had a big birthday party that was kind of loud. Probably not how it is normally so I’d love to visit again.
