Come enjoy a relaxing afternoon in our cottage style tearoom now located in the building housing the first hotel in Frankfort built in 1855. With a theme based on the novel Little Women each menu item is named for and designed in the spirit of the characters. Try our scone of the day with a different flavor scone each day of the week. Our soon-to-be-famous quiche is a big favorite as are our muffins and other sweets.

Variety: was there w/3 friends, sun. the 29th..the tearoom was so cold 2 of us ate w/our coats on..the thermostat was set at 67..we had chills the rest of the day which we could not shake....there was no tea cozy to keep the tea warm...so it wasn't...the soup in a served in a teacup also stood no chance of staying warm,,and the 'one item per/person' and the miniscule amount of soup...to me...did not warrant our 85.00 tab (tax included) |

Variety: I had tea with my daughter, mother, and three sisters. We had a full tea and it was lovely. The afternoon was very special and feminine. I retured again with my daughter and husband and the owner was not present. Unfortunately, the service was not as good as the day we were there and she was present. |

Variety: My sister and I came for an early lunch recently, and everything was delightful. The muffin of the day (raspberry) and the scone were out of this world good. The tea was excellent as well. Our server was cheerful and informative about the local happenings. I intend to visit again soon. |

Variety: No matter what is going on in my life; a visit to Pickwick instantly makes me feel better. The food is amazing and the service goes beyond expectation. This summer I decided to expand my horizons and had high tea at the Drake. Although it was enjoyable, I could not help but compare everything to Pickwick. The Drake did not even come close. |

I have been many times to the Pickwick tearoom over the past few years but today I had the full tea service with tea, an assortment of sandwiches and cookies and it was such a treat. It included a nice visual and olfactory presentation of all the teas (whole leaf) available. |

Variety: I chose this tea room for my daughter's bridal shower. It was wonderful! My guests are still talking about it! We had the breakfast tea and it was delicious! There were small children present who were given fruit and cupcakes instead of the salad and desserts that were served to the adults. I would recommend this tea room to anyone with a special occasion or just to stop in with anyone for a lovely visit. |

Variety: I had tea with my Mom and sister. It was awesome! I could not say that there was one thing on the platter that I did not think was excellent! We had the evening tea or dinner tea.....not sure what it was called, but it was delicious. So fresh and very relaxing. |

Variety: The tea room is located in the perfect neighborhood of downtown Frankfort. It has a quaint feel and is perfect for a morning brunch or an afternoon lunch. The tea is wonderful and the food is even better. We did the full tea and it was absolutely delightful. The menu was already selected for us so we were able to just sit back and enjoy the experience! Thsi is the perfect place for a women's gathering, a bridal party event, birthday celebration, or to welcome a new baby. |

My mother and I just returned home after a delightful afternoon tea at the Pickwick Society Tearoom in Frankfort, Illinois. Not only was the tea choice amazing, but the presentation of the sandwiches and sweets were delightful and were overflowinng on our three tier server. We have been to tea in the Ritz Carlton in Naples, Florida and there is absolutely no comparison. For a fraction of the Ritz's price, we enjoyed a tea that was bountiful and delicious. |
