Absolutely Delightful - the tea house is super cute and everything is top tier! My Aunt had not been to High Tea in years and she loved it soooo much. She will be back I’m sure! Make a reservation and go! You will love it.

I almost don't want to write a review because this place is so lovely and precious and I don't want other people to flock there! But alas, I must because they deserve it. It's beyond beautiful and the service is extraordinary. There are several tea options to choose from and we were very happy with our selections along with the sandwiches, small desserts, and scones. I think the only request would have been to select our own scones as we each would have preferred something sweet but beyond that, it was perfect and we will definitely return.

This is my third visit. I bring someone different every time. My guests always want to go back. I've never encountered anything like it. It is a very special place, especially for ladies. My husband loves tea and he surprised me one Valentine's day and I got teary eyed. It was romantic and he said lets go in here. We walked in and we were asked if we had reservations. I said no and he said yes, and that was the surprise on Valentine's day. The hostesses are always sweet and accommodating. Since it's June the 85 year old in my party chose outside. First time I've gone in the warmer months. It was delightful. Such care in detail makes it so special. We saw a water fountain, antique baby carriage, lovely flowers and bushes to help separate one another. The tea settings are all different. I get the $38. tea tier as it includes a chicken salad sandwich.There were ladies getting their nails done too. Massage and hair salon are also available. You will love it. Relaxation!
