Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Columbia City

A must-go for the tea lover in your life. Delightfully warm atmosphere, like being inside a tea cozy or at grandma's house. Lots of different kinds of tea on offer; service is very well organized, food was good. For the afternoon tea, we agreed that the standouts were the goat cheese tomato tarts and the cranberry orange scones. Just a really fun outing if you love tea or if you are looking for something different than usual.

I took my ten year old sister for a "fancy" tea party as a Christmas gift and she rated the experience as a ten out of ten. She ordered a strawberry lemonade, which I stole a sip of and was impressed by how fresh and tasty the house made strawberry puree was. We both enjoyed our curated tea sandwiches, my favorite from the adult menu was the salmon and cucumber, her favorite from the kids was the Nutella. The second tier of the tea tray had fresh fruit and crumpets, we enjoyed the seasonal cranberry-orange jam. The dessert tier was especially yummy, and even though I'm not usually a fan of macarons, we took home a half dozen to share with the rest of the family. The shop was a bit noisy, but I attribute that to it being fully booked for the holiday season, and assume it would usually be much quieter.

Fabulous! We love celebrating with a beautiful tea experience and this is by far our favorite place! Outstanding!

David, our server, was absolutely wonderful. He’s very knowledgeable, and incredibly kind! He made our entire experience (for the 2nd year in a row)! We really enjoyed being in the hotel area this year. It felt cozy and very festive for Holiday tea!

Absolutely wonderful and special every way!!! Always memorable!!!
