CHARMS of Leffingwell

The service is excellent. The owner is always checking on you. Going to tea houses is a birthday tradition mom and me have started after her 60th birthday. We went to Longfellows because we wanted to try it and go to the outlet mall near by. This is a great antique store and the tea is very good, but it was medicore compare to other tea houses we have been. If you do plan on poppig in make sure you make a reservation or you will not be able to eat.

The food was appalling; she served strawberries well beyond their prime. She was a lovely hostess but the tables were rickety and the food was mediocre at best.

The Charms offers three different teas--Cream Tea ($7), Sweet Tea ($10) and Charmed Tea ($16). My husband and I chose the Sweet Tea. With it we were each served two different types of scones, coconut cookies, chocolate eclairs, brownies and a piece of quiche. Everything was delicious and very filling. The Tea was also very fairly priced. Our server (who was also the owner) did her absolute best to ensure we enjoyed every minute of visit. I would recommend the Charms of Leffingwell to anyone who likes to visit old houses, enjoys antiques and who likes tea and scones.
