I came to the Calabash Garden Tea Room for the first time with a group of women from my neighborhood. It was lovely and we had the best time. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Will definitely plan to come again. |

Variety: I had my daughter's first birthday party here and it was wonderful! She was treated like a little princess. The owners made a special plate for her that included a heart shaped jelly sandwich, a mini chocolate chip scone, a sparkly rice krispy treat and fresh fruit. The best part was the chocolate velvet cupcake with hot pink frosting! The staff even put a candle in it and sung 'Happy Birthday' to her. My mother in law and I enjoyed the ultimate tea where we shared bite sized gourmet finger sandwiches, fresh-baked almond scones with a delicious lemon curd, and petite desserts including chocolate dipped strawberries! The Hibiscus Blueberry Iced Tea that we sipped was perfectly concocted. We took so many great pictures, even my daughter's doll had a chair at the table! This is the perfect place to take the people you care about most...it is THAT special. |

Variety: This is absolutely the best tea room experience ever. I can not tell you how much my friends and I enjoy coming here. Between the food, the tea and the service, there's no other place like it anywhere. If you love tea and excellent food, you will love this tea room. |

I live in California and the thing to do is always try the local tea rooms when vacationing. While in North Carolina, my family and I went to Calabash Garden Tea Room. It was my favorite tea room experience thus far. It was better than The Fairmont in San Francisco! |

Variety: My mother,sister,aunt and freinds have been going to the Tea room for 3ish years now. It is a tradition we have started to go every Christmas. We aslo go maybe 2 other times throughout the year. The staff is so personable and friendly. The food is to die for and there are so many veriaties of tea. Our favorite part is that you can go there and wear fancy hats,gloves,and boas.Like and old fasion tea parties. Thanks to Kathy and Anna for always giving us a wonderful tea time. |

Variety: My sister was in town visiting, and I had been dying to take her to the tea room in Calabash. What a fantastic time we had! Not only was the food delicious (the scones to die for....aaaaah!), but we had so much fun dressing up in all of the hats and boas that were supplied for guests. If you are close to the Calabash area (welll even if you're not!) come to this tea room, you will not be disappointed. |

Variety: I arranged for 16 women to attend an Ultimate Tea Party at the Calabash Tea Garden. The owners were so cheerful and absolutely accommodating to all of us. Kathy's baking and cooking is superb using the best and freshest ingredients. We even bought scones to take home. The hats and boas added to a fun afternoon. I highly recommend this if you are in the area. |

Variety: Upon entering this tea room you'll feel like you're entering a fairy tale. The decor, the food and service are all unbelievable! I don't think I have ever been to a tea room that pays this much attention to detail from the ribbons on the sandwiches to the tea light warmers to the dress up clothing, these ladies have done everything right. Be sure to make a reservation as everytime I have been there it's been very very busy. Apparently the secret is out and everyone knows how wonderful this tea room is!! |
