Crest Hill Antiques and Tea Room

I discovered this little tea room simply by chance and knew I had to make a reservation. It did not disappoint! The tiny tea room was extremely charming with its eye-catching antiques and intimiate atmosphere. My friends and I tried a variety of teas and they were all very flavorful and delicious (I also bought a bag of their Diamond Jubilee tea to try at home and it's wonderful as well). Their clotted cream was an out-of-this-world cherry on top of the cake! I'll be back again for sure.

This charming little salon, tucked behind eye-catching antiques displays, is a lovely light-filled little room, yellow w/white trim, and a bright bay window. Tea is introduced via small sample cannisters offering a wide selection of whole leaf teas. The Full Monty Tea boasts very generous portions of sweets & savories. The sandwiches are made with quality bread, real ham/cheese and crisp cucumbers, all fresh. The scones were the best, rivaled only by the cookies and the moist, light cake. Try the lemon curd w/your clotted cream. Top tier was fresh cut fruit, pear and apple. My friend's daughter was delighted (twice) with her elaborate hot chocolate. All very reasonably priced. If you're celebrating a special occasion, or just want to take tea in a quiet space w/your book, then pamper yourself w/a visit to Hill Crest.
