I had always wanted to go to Miss Molly's, when I went I was very dissatisfied with the service. We recieved our food and had to physically ask for our server so we could get boxes and such. I will not go back.

The orange cranberry tea I ordered was a perfect blend of flavors. The tea sandwiches were whimsical and delectable. I enjoyed seeing my little sister served her own pot if iced tea next to my pot of hot tea. Everyone who worked there seemed pleasant and to enjoy their jobs. We made our reservation for when they opened on Saturday, and while the room was not full by the end of our visit, the back parking lot was, so I suggest if you are planning to visit on a weekend,you make your reservation early in the day.

Miss Molly's is the most charming Victorian era, beautiful tea room in N. Ohio.
Traveling with the Red Hatters allows me to see a few of them! The food is excellent, presentation inviting and service by an incredible staff that seems to smile all the time. Reservations are recomended as it does get quite crowded. The new expanded dining area has solved a great deal of that problem. I enjoy all of their entrees but the chicken salad and tuna are worthy of notation as is the pretzel salad. The gift shop has everything and anything a lover of tea could want. Beautiful china,note cards,jewelry just too much to mention. You will most likely be taking some of your food home for later as the portions allow for a hearty meal. If you are looking for a unique dining experience Miss Molly's is the place to go. I know I will return again and again!

Much to my disappointment.....Miss Molly's was not the 'quaint' and 'cozy' tea room I had hoped for. Although the food and service was good....the resturant was so crowed that you could barely make your way into the gift shop to pay your bill. I think I even saw banquet tables set up with folding chairs (I felt sorry for the people who had to sit there). The server, although nice and apologetic, was having a hard time keeping up with the amount of tables she had. I hope all tea-rooms don't go the way of 'mass production' as I feel this one has done. I won't be back.

I have been to Miss Molly's several times over the past three years and have found it to be the best tea room in the Greater Cleveland area. In fact, my sister refuses to go anywhere else! The food is delicious, the tea is delightful, and the servers are friendly. I have spoken with one of the owners on a couple of occasions and feel assured that they are committed to providing the best tea, food, and service possible. Moreover, I have never felt ignored or rushed. They staff a real chef, not a cook. Also, most of their employees have been with them for many years which I feel says a lot of about the quality of the business.
Miss Molly's offers an extensive loose tea menu, including true teas from the Camellia Sinesis plant, herbal and fruit teas (my favorite is raspberry),... (more) and chai teas (my sister's favorite). Of their food selections, my favorite is the Tea Room Sampler - three, heart-shaped sandwiches of chicken salad on white, tuna salad on wheat, and pimento cheese salad on white. The chicken salad is divine, the tuna salad tasty, and the pimento cheese salad unique! As with most of the menu selections, you also choose one of four side salads. My sister prefers the strawberry pretzel salad or the broccoli salad, while I prefer the cucumber salad. Potato chips and fresh fruit accompany many of the luncheon choices. Our mother and my mother-in-law enjoy trying new taste sensations, and so they often order and thoroughly enjoy one of the daily specials. Some of those specials have included lamp chops, roast beef, and quiches. Not to be missed are the scones! They too change daily. Oftentimes, we have scones with lunch and then order a few scones to take home. Yummy!
Reservations are an absolute must! This tea room is extremely popular, especially on weekends. Seating is tight then, because they always operate at full capacity. Many times a birthday luncheon and a wedding or baby shower are being celebrated. Again, I think this popularity is a positive statement about the quality of the establishment. A hint to those celebrating birthdays, if you let the server know who the birthday girl is, she will receive a whipped cream 'cake' with sprinkles and a candle, a tea cookie, and a card to hold the Polaroid picture they will take of your party.
Recently the dining area and the shop area were expanded. Now Miss Molly's occupies one entire side of the first floor. The decor is Victorian Christmas - rich red, pinks, burgundy, and deep green colors in both the floral and striped wallpapers. Christmas trees with white lights and Victorian knick-knacks and pictures are scattered about the dining space. I've seen patrons dress up in heels, hats, dresses and suits, and I've seen patrons dress down in nice jeans and t-shirts. The majority of patrons are women, but on occasion a few boys and men are in the mix too. The overall atmosphere is one of casual coziness with a dash of festivity.
When I'm making a reservation, if no one answers the phone, I simply leave a message as instructed with my name, phone number, day, date and time I'm coming in, and the number of people in my party. If you asked to be called back to confirm the reservation, they will call back. While I personally haven't tried this, perhaps I could make a suggestion that might be helpful to those needing special considerations: When you're making your reservation, ask to be seated in section behind the hostess podium or in the new section. The section behind the podium has the least amount of traffic, while the new section is roomier. The new section has two connecting passages to the shop, so there is still some traffic, but it is certainly less than the main section. I hope this helps.
As mentioned before, Miss Molly's is a very popular tea room. Somehow they have a created a magic atmosphere that relaxes and energizes at the same time. After a visit to Miss Molly's, it seems like everything is all right with my world, at least for a little while. I have been to spas that didn't provide me with this sense of calmness and relaxation. Like I said, Miss Molly's is the best!

I didn't care for the foodor the presentation. They seem to be in a hurry to get you in, get you feed and get you out. I won't be back.

This was my first Tea Room experience.I found the seating very very crowded. One lady in our group who used a walker could not even get to the table with it. When she finally got there the walker had to be folded and stored against a wall 2o feet from her.The waitress was slow and very awkward in the presentation of the tea pots especially.We ordered the lunch with three different finger sandwhiches we thought.It consisted of two heart shaped smashed pieces of bread with a ice cream scoop amount of filling in it. Very awkward and impossible to get it to your mouth without wearing the samples.Along with that came a tea cup of soup of the day,chips and pickle slice.The sandwhich fillings were of course refrigerated fillings set down next to the cup of steaming soup which started to warm the ... (more)fillings making even them loose consistancy. I found this experience to be not relaxing, but stressful. The area we were seated in was noisey and crowded, making it almost impossible to have conversation at our table. Im not about to return there as it was not at all what I had heard from friends. I do how ever plan on trying different tea rooms. I wish I could have been pleased with at least one thing on Miss Mollys.I hope they read these blogs and try to do something about these issues.

I've enjoyed the few visits I've had to Miss Molly's. The food is very good and I love the fancy tea cups and pots that they use.
Seating is a bit cramped and I think they would do better to explain the menu as this can be a new experience for some. And, while reservations are almost a must, it is difficult to reach someone to make one.
All in all, it's quiet enjoyable and I would give it four stars!

I've been to Miss Molly's a few times. Always a lovely time! The strawberry pretzel salad is to die for and the huge selection of teas is wonderful. They also have a beautiful gift shop. Just a note: very important to make reservations if you want to have tea on a Saturday.

I had heard a few positive comments about this tea room in the past so I decided to give it a try. Must say was very disappointed with the treatment we received from the hostess. My mother and I were seated at a really small table in a high traffic area. What's more the hostess actually said that most people don't like to sit at this table but because we didn't make reservation and because other server were busy this is where we had to sit. Needless to say I was upset with this treament and did make a point of telling a manager. Emphasized that all customers are important and deserve to be treated with consideration. I'm not sure that I will be backt to see if this has improved. There are too many other tea rooms just as charming, with great food and where customers are valued. If you in... (more)tend to dine here and especially if you are driving a great distance call first and make reservations.
The meal itself was good particularly the strawberry pretzel salad and they do give each guest a large pot of tea instead of the smaller pots common in most tea rooms.
Dinning room is charming but large and can get quite noisy.
