Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in South Philly

Always a wonderful experience with our granddaughters at Christmas. We appreciated the new tea pot, a new China and a wonderful service with big Well this year, the girls actually love the tea. They’re 10 they always love the scones and sweets. It’s the highlight of our Christmas season.

We had come into Philly to enjoy some holiday shopping and I thought Dandelion would be a nice, cozy spot for lunch on a cold December day. It was perfect! We were shown to a lovely corner booth upstairs where every table was full, but the noise level was a non-issue. Bella proved to be a knowledgeable and professional server and had good suggestions regarding beverages and menu selections. I enjoyed the salmon pate and my husband's burger was terrific. It was the typical Stephen Starr restaurant experience: creative, authentic decor; well-trained professional staff; and great food.

My group had a wonderful experience at Akwaaba Tea Salon. We came to celebrate and remember the life of a dear departed friend. Let's just say she would have been pleased with the outing and would have come up with ways for us to come back! Thank you for helping us remember our friend in such a positive atmosphere.

Another fantastic dinner at Tria. Once again, the service was impeccable and friendly. Good night was made even better with a wine tasting from various regions in Sicily absolutely looking forward to the next wine event at our beautiful neighborhood gem, Tria

Just what we wanted, quiet, with good food at a reasonable price. We would go again. Service was excellent.
