Located in one of West Chester's most famous historic structures, The Lincoln Room provides a place to enjoy early morning tea, coffee and continental treats. By mid-morning, the Lincoln Room becomes a tea room offering a full luncheon served in the classic style of fine American tea rooms. The menu includes tea sandwiches, quiche, soups, sandwiches and loose-leaf teas six days a week (closed Sundays). While the menu offers guests a variety of choices, it also provides for an American Full Tea that offers scones and a choice of soup, then an assortment of tea sandwiches followed by dessert. One of the dessert specialties is the croissant bread pudding topped with vanilla or flavor-of-the-day sauce. Each Saturday, a special light-breakfast menu is offered starting at 8:00 am. Newly remodeled to reflect the historic character of the Lincoln Building, the original tin ceiling has been retained and an outdoor fountain placed in the front stairwell. One may enjoy a meal at The Lincoln Room both in the dining room, outside on the shaded patio or on the sidewalk near the fountain.

Variety: We held a baby shower for approx. 16 people on a saturday afternoon. Everything was perfect! The service was extremely attentive but very subtle. They were happy to explain the food, the teas and all options available. The tea selection was expansive but not overwhelming. The variety of foods set the exact mood for the event. Also, the atmosphere was sophisticated but not stuffy and was perfect for an afternoon of chatting! The room space is ideal for intimate events and I can't wait to try the outdoor space as well. I definitely recommend this location for a shower of any sort or just for an afternoon of relaxing conversation. |

Variety: My friend & I found this to be a very charming tearoom. Love the logo on the teapots! The service and the food was excellent. We have since ordered tea sandwiches for a fund-raising event. Our guests raved over the quality and flavor. Happy to recommend this tearoom. |

Variety: I took my 82 year old aunt to tea and was dismayed to find it not handicapped ready. I had to settle for take out and was very disappointed in the tea, sandwiches and dessert. Thank you. |

Variety: Accommodating service and warm atmosphere are this tea room's hallmarks. We visited on a Fondue Friday, and the full house was suffused with cheer. The owner told us she had intended to create a relaxed space amidst West Chester's many bustling restaurants and coffee shops. Most of the delightful fondue was courtesy of Merrill Simon-Johnston, popular local caterer. The owner is a relative newcomer to tea, and flavored blends outnumber varietals on the all-Harney tea list; visit soon while the phenomenal Ali San Oolong is still available! |

Variety: Delicious food well-prepared and artistically presented; personalized service that makes you feel like family; an intimate, quiet, relaxed atmosphere. Who could ask for more? I always recommend the Lincoln Room to all my friends. |
