Hopsewee Plantation

What can I say everyone I've brought to the tea room loved it, also Raejean is such an excellant hostess, needless to say I'll be back.

The owner of the historic house serves you the most beautiful, delicious high tea. She even was able to cater to my gluten-free, lactose free needs. What a find.

We had an extremely enjoyable tour and tea. We had friends visiting and they were so happy with our choice for a plantation tour and the tea was a great addition.

We visited the Hopsewee Plantation June 9,2010 and had tea at the tea room. We enjoyed the entire experience. The tour was wonderful and the tea was even better. I also purchased a sea grass basket that I love and want to thank everyone at the plantation.

Great food, tea and hospitality. This was a great part of our South Carolina vacation. It was a nice way to cap our visit to Hopsewee!

My p[arents and I visited Hopsewee in May and truly enjoyed the entire experience. The tea's were excellent and the food was outstanding. One of our favorites was the ginger snap with the chicken curry. We would love the recipe! Desserts were wonderful and the scones and jams were the best. Thanks for a wonderful tea experience.

Excellent food served in a beautiful but relaxed atmosphere, with great service.

The Hopsewee Tea cottage is exquisite---everything that I envisioned it would be. The tea varities were good and well prepared. The food was excellent, such as white chocolate raspberry cheesecake, lemon chest pie, cucumber dainty, cheese and pesto on a cracker. Of course, the setting was the Old South complete with giant oaks and Spanish moss. The ambience was elegant but relaxed. I will definately go back.

We thought this tea room experience was in EVERY way SUPERB! The food was all excellent. The scones were still hot from the oven. The teas (either hot or iced) were very nice with a great choice. The views over the plantation grounds are very peaceful. And the service and the atmosphere were wonderful. We could not ask for anything different. Raejean gives each guest a personal invitation into her home and is a very gracious hostess.

What a wonderful experience - from the lovely environment to the delicious savories and sweets and delightful service. A relaxed, enjoyable experience which I highly recommend and plan to visit as much as possible. My friend with gluten intolerance had special foods prepared just for her and they were all delicious!

They had a great selection of teas and I'm sure the website will have more specifics on that. I had iced chai tea and it was wonderful! I would say the Tea Room had a traditional yet casual atmosphere with fabulous views of nature.

What a lovely visit and a wonderful and historic place to share tea with friends. The ambiance, food, service and personal attention made our tea time extra special. It was a delightful and delicious experience.

My husband and I just came back from the Hopsewee Plantation tea room and it was excellent. The teas were amazing and so was the food. We are definitely going to start eating more cucumber sandwiches.

I highly recommend Hopsewee for tea.

What a glorious day my sister and I spent at Ms. Beattie's tearoom at Hopsewee! The food was superb, and the ambiance so inviting! But most importantly, Ms. Beattie makes you feel so welcome. She is wonderful hostess, and a marvelous cook. I highly encourage anyone who reads this to take a group of friends to tea at Hopsewee Plantation. It is well worth it. There is nothing like it!

This was our first tea room experience and it was wonderful. We were served about four different types of tea, the Artic Rasberry was excellent. Who would have known that gingersnap cookies would be a great base for chicken salad mousse. On a gray, dreary day, the room was bright, warm and cheerful and our hostess and servers were charming. We will attend again.

Had an amazing tea this afternoon. Every thing was great, especially the tea sandwiches. They were very nice about giving me decaf tea also. What a fun way to spend a raining afternoon

I visited with three friends last week. We took the tour, had tea and a Wonderful time! The food was great, the owner friendly and informative. I have recommended it to co-workers and friends.

Tea at Hopsewee Plantation is by far the best tea I have ever experienced. Mrs. Beattie prepares delicious and very unique southern savories, which are a real culinary treat. The scones, with a variety of equally delicious jellies, clotted cream, and lemon curd, are delightful. The sweets are all handmade, delicious,freshly prepared,and truly outstanding. Mrs. Beattie makes your tea experience a very memorable one. She is a very gracious hostess. Her outstanding culinary skills, along with the lovely ambiance and scenic outdoor view, make this tearoom the best you will experience in south carolina.

The tearoom at Hopsewee Plantation was one of the highlights of our Thanksgiving vacation to SC. Raejean's presentation surpasses any other tearoom we have visted at home or a broad.

Our experience was so pleasant. The whole leaf teas were great - and many varieties to choose from. The tea sandwiches were creative and tasty and pretty to look at. All in all a thoroughly satisfying experience.

What a delightful visit of your tearoom and the wonderful tea. My favorite was Lady Londonberry. I highly recommend this visit to anyone looking for something different to see and do in SC.

Six loose leaf teas were served to our party at tables covered in lovely white linens and set with English china. The Earl Grey Cream Tea was a delightful change from regular Earl Grey; my other favorite was the Jasmine with Flowers Green Tea. The cucumber sandwiches and scones complete with lemon curd and cottage cream were special favorites. The peaceful setting and beautiful view completed the tea experience. I plan to come again!

While on vacation in Myrtle Beach , my daughter ,her freind and I enjoyed a wonderful experience having tea at Hopswee. The variety of teas and the delicious foods, was a great surprise.
