Simply Country Gifts & Southern Belles TeaRoom

This is just simply the most wonderful tea room we have ever been too! Everything was delicious, beautiful and peaceful with elegance. Many tea rooms brag about their tea room while Southern Belles quietly serves the best afternoon tea in the state. Thanks for being there for all of us!

We all had the best time during our Tea! Yours is really the best. The tearoom is so beautiful and you have the most amazing gifts and tea items but the food is outstanding and tea brewed perfectly. Your strawberry festival tea is the best!

Hello Rick and Susan! We all wanted to write and tell you many thanks for our wonderful tea for our group! We loved everything about it. What a beautiful, peaceful setting and it was perfect for us that live in Tampa and all the friends that met us from Orlando! So easy to get too and it is so quaint! Your decor is so authenic and we felt like we were special for the day! Keep up the good work and a successful New Year!

Excellent Afternoon Tea! The gift store is loaded with unusual items, tea items and a lot of things are on sale for clearance. Beautiful setting and one of the best tasting Afternoon teas we have ever been too. So glad I found you on teamap!

We all had so much fun at our girls day out at the Tea Room! The tea was delicious and food was so beautifully presented and delicious too but the scones were wonderful! Can't wait till the next time soon. Thanks for the demonstration how to brew loose leaf tea! It makes such a difference and had no idea the difference of the tea compared to the chopped up tea in tea bags. I have been brewing the Strawberry Tea we bought and it is wonderful. Please let me know when your next group Afternoon Tea and Seminar on Tea!

Wonderful Tea exprience and tea room. It was a relaxing good time had by all and the food was delicious and the best we have had anywhere. Service was perfect and tea was delightful! Sorry it has taken a while to write but wanted to let you know we had a great time.

The loose leaf tea we had at our Girls day out tea was fabulous! The Merry Christmas Holiday Tea was brewed to perfection. Looking so forward to coming back for another Afternoon Tea with Southern Belles! We travel to other Tea Rooms and really all in all the food is the best here! Warm atmosphere, not stuffy or snobby but very elegant and their gift store is huge! The owner told me they were expanding their tea room after selling all of their Christmas items out after Christmas and will have more event teas and a young ladies tea area for birthday parties and such. They also have a very nice area they are preparing with inspirational books. Happy 25th anniversary and thanks for having such a wonderful tea room and business.

Thanks for our delicious Christmas Afternoon Tea! Such a lovely respite from the craziness of the malls and I saved so much on all of my Christmas gifts too with your 25th Anniversary sale. They loved everything I bought for them! My Mother, daughter, sister and husband. Your holiday tea was perfect and I am looking forward to coming back for your after Christmas sale on Wednesday too. Happy New Year to Southern Belles.

Stunning Store and the best Afternoon Tea Food we have had anywhere! Loose Leaf Tea brewed to perfection and Scones are perfect. Can't wait to come back! I think I need to come shopping for more sales for the rest of my Christmas shopping and have tea again! Merry Christmas to all of you.

I had to write and describe how wonderful this Tea Room is and that it is absolutely the best Tea Room in Central Florida! There are many other beautiful ones around but this tea room has the most unique setting and the most delicious food of all! We all enjoyed our tea so much last week and believe me it is hard to please our group of gals as they go to tea rooms all the time! Your scones are really the best. They melt in your mouth and the English raspberry choc. cheese cake bars were out of this world! I think your gift store was over the top and the sales fantastic! Thanks again for all your hard work to get everyone seated with all the changes that day! Your the best! And thanks for the wonderful Fresh picked Strawberries of this season dipped in chocolate!

Wow is all I can say......one of the most relaxing and enjoyable Afternoon Teas with my friends that we have experienced and believe me we have been to almost all of them in the area. The food is delicious and the portions are just right! Can't say enough about the scones being the best in all we have visited and the gift store has a treasure trove of many gifts not just a ladies boutique with clothes and jewelry that the average woman cannot afford! So excited about the Christmas Village I started and coming back for more with your fantastic sale. Thanks Southern Belles: Your the best!

Enjoyed a most lovely and Excellent Afternoon Tea in the most perfect setting and I loved the Holiday Tea! Delicious and the scones melted in our mouths. So excited about my village and snowbaby sale purchase....finished my village...check! Working on gifts for so many with those great buys with the snowbabies and boyds bears and at a great price too! Coming back in a few days and mmmmmmmm, think that gives me a good excuse for another Afternoon Tea too! Did I tell you the chicken salad was to die for too!

We are late in writing our review and many thanks for our lovely Afternoon Tea for my Mother and all of her friends for her Birthday! It was the best we have ever had and no attentionb to detail was overlooked! From the most delicious scones we have ever had to the perfectly brewed loose leaf tea. All was Triple A plus! Looking forward to coming with a smaller group and take advantage of all your Christmas Sales. I want to add to my New England and Christmas in the City Village before you run out. Thanks Everyone, your service was outstanding!

Aabsolutely the best there is!!!! Just the most stunning design in the cottage tudor; arched doorways with Christmas everywhere and so elegantly done! Did I say the food...it so artfully prepared but more it is delicous and plentiful! Ricks scones are out of this world. No wonder Disney has flipped for them for the Grand Floridian! The Sales today were better than anywhere else I had been and it was peaceful, but busy and what else could you want to have Tea and Shopping!!! Going back tomorrow for the Village Super Special.......Thanks!

This place is a treasure trove of Christmas Gifts and decorations. I have been able to finish my North Pole Village and on sale too for their 25th Anniversary! And the Afternoon Tea is to die for. The loose leaf tea was brewed to perfections and the scones melt in your mouth and did I say the sandwiches and deserts are absolutely delicious...oh I could go on and on. Can't wait till Saturday when their gifts and snowbabies are on sale so I can get them for all my gifts! Love them!

Thank you for a pleasurable Afternoon Tea in your wonderful establishment! Everything was A pls and I love my beautiful and classy Autumn Wreath! Can't wait to come back and pick up my Christmas wreaths and I love my Buffet Table Autumn swag too! It is just exquisite! So Excited for the weekend after Thanksgiving for the big sale! I am coming to finish my Christmas Collection and I am giving a lot on my list those beautiful Snowbabies that you will have 40-50% off! Happy Thanksgiving and get some rest!

Thanks for the splendid time at your tea room in one of the most beautiful settings! So quaint under those southern oaks and that beautiful English Cottage! What magic and the food was delicious and perfection with the tea brewing. Will be coming back after Thanksgiving for your one of a kind sale for your 25th anniversary! Been wanting to get snowbabies for all my friends and with a great sale I can afford it!

Thanks for the wonderful Afternoon Tea and please tell Rick we are so sorry about the loss of him Mother. Your food was the best we have had and the Scones are out of this world! No wonder everyone says they are the best!

Such and exquisite and beautiful setting for English Afternoon Tea. We enjoyed all of the food and especially the scones most of all! I am very excited to come back in a when you start your complete clearance of all of the Christmas....Your Christmas items are great and not junk like we see everywhere and we are excited to pick up some of the villages to at a discounted rate!

So excited you were there today so I could buy the best tea in the south! Missed when you were closed some in the summer! Looking good as you are decorating and getting ready for the great sale on all of your Christmas! Can't wait for that and afternoon tea soon!

Wanted to write and express that this Tea Room is everything and more! Everything was top notch and so elegant! The girls have not stopped talking about their tea experience since all of us had our afternoon tea and meeting at this divine place! The minute you walk in you feel like you are in a magical place and you are their guest! Food is surperb and beautifully presented and the Loose leaf tea is out of this world. We had Iced and Hot tea and our cup was kept full whenever we needed it! Warm southern atmosphere and a delightful gift shop packed with Christmas, gifts, and all kinds of books! The villages for Christmas are just great. So glad I found out about this Tea Room on teamap. It is the best kept secret and I plan on telling all of my friends and family!

What an exciting time we had and they were so nice to fit us in at the last minute! I think all in all this was the best tearoom and food we have ever had! Tea was brewed to perfection and all of the food was so delicious! Can't wait to come back in the fall and bring my friends and Mom!

We were delighted with this tearoom! So positive, food divine, staff and owners warm southern hospitality and fabulous gift shop with just about anything you could want! Lots of Christmas Items on sale too!

My friends and I visit various tea roos at least 4 to 6 times yearly. The food was divine, excellent cucumber sandwich. The sweet plate was fabulous especially the pecan cup. Chocolate covered strawberry was huge and so sweet. Service was delightful. Overall a memorable experience and we will be back.

Nice Tea Room! Beautiful, delicious food, wonderful setting, professional and warm service by owners/staff! Vast and unique gift shop and they have a large amount of Christian and Inspirational Books for gifts. Enjoyed our Afternoon Tea and will be back for a wedding shower in the fall! By the way, this tea room has a great location next to I-4 and is very convenient to us since we were traveling from Orlando!

We all just wanted to write and express what a pleasure it was to come and have Afternoon Tea at your Tea Room in Plant City! We have heard so many good things about you and your tearoom from our friends in Orlando and it was all true! Great and beautifully presented food! Delicious Scones and really the best we have had ever. The Tea room itself is just beautiful and the most unique in the cottage. And the gift store has so many unusual items in it. I loved the Christmas section and found many treasures on sale too. We can't wait to bring all of our friends and spend the afternoon sipping tea and shopping!

This georgia peach had to write and express what an excellent tea room this is! It is the epitome of southern charm and grace with the best food we have ever had at a Tea Room! Elegant building and so easy to get too! Can't wait till I come back to Florida with my family so we can experience it again!

Can we say Triple A +++! This is a great and friendly Tea Room. Wouldn't think of going anywhere else! Been to all of them and all we can say is Southern Belles is the real deal! They have the most warm Southern spirit and care about their customers! The food is just the best and scones are out of this world! We would travel farther than Tampa if we needed too! All of us come from different cities and it is so easy to get to this Tea Room and it is great to meet with our friends and enjoy our Tea Time. We are looking forward the end of May to bring our Mothers again and enjoy the best! Thanks!

Bringing my Mother to Afternoon Tea was a peaceful experience! We enjoyed the food, actually the best we have been served at any tearoom around! I can't describe the beauty of the place as we felt like we were very special. The Tearoom has English doors and archways that make you think you are in an English Tea Room. What a great experience for me to take my Mom and make special memories for her. We will be back soon. It is so easy to get too. Beautiful Tearoom!

We all had a simply wonderful time at the Tea Room! I have to say they really do have the best food and beautifully presented! Susan and the staff go out of their way to treat us like Queens and answered many questions we had about how to brew Loose tea correctly. Your Strawberry Tea is so good I can see why it is such a hit at the Festival where I tried it for the first time! Looking forward to treating my Mother in May for a Mother's day treat! This beautiful place is indeed a retreat and a place of tranquility while having tea and so beautiful too!

All of us girls had the most exciting time during our Tea at this exquisite Tea Room! The food is just the Best from all the Tea Rooms around! It is delicious and plentiful and the Strawberry Scones surperb! The English Tudor transports you back to the Tea Times of yesteryear with the arched door and doorways when you enter and it is just perfect! We will be coming often. We so enjoyed our time and learned so much about how to brew tea and we tried some very good varieties of tea! I loved the Darjeeling that just arrived! So light and delicious no wonder it is call the Champagne of Tea! Thanks again Southern Belles Tea Room!

Thank you for making my Mother's Birthday Tea so special! We really appreciate all of the work that you put into it so soon after all the work you did at the Strawberry Festival and in the middle of your trying to rearrange your tearoom and clearance sale! The tea was so good and everyone has not quit talking about your delicious scones, sandwiches and everything! Everyone always goes out of their way to make sure that we have a nice time. We appreciate your patience in offering to make different teas so we can find the ones we love! Your Mom is the best and tell Susan we appreciate the mini tea class she gave at the festival and hope that she is feeling better!

We had to write and say how excited we are to find you and try your festival strawberry tea! Already made reservations for your afternoon tea after the festival and we bought our boyds bears at 50% off too. Went home and brewed our tea we bought and enjoyed more of the festival tea! It is the best we have ever had! nice meeting you too! Love that Southern Charm!

There is only one word necessary to describe this Tea Room!!!
EXCELLENT! From the location, beautiful building, perfect service, attentiveness, Food is elegant and delicious! No more needs to be said! Number 1 in our book! Sweet Southern Charm too!

You know I just had to write and explain and describe just what a treasure we have in Plant City, Fl right under our noses! I was invited to an Afternoon Tea to Celebrate a wonderful lady, Betty, for her 80th Birthday Party. There were people from all walks of her life from her work as an Engineer to helping at the store and tea room, to all her years at church in Lithia and now at Lone Oak Baptist church! And ,many sweet friends and children! I really had taken this tea room for granted because I know the owners and sometimes we do that! I could not believe what Rick and Susan Lynn have accomplished here! It is so lovely, peaceful, beautiful and the food is just absolutly the best of any Tea Room we have been too. It may not have quite the expensive decor of London's Hotel or Disney... (more)'s Decor, but they more than make up for it by the lovely English Tudor, warm southern charm with no pretentions! The scones are award winning as they should be....the best! I could go on and on but I want everyone to know just how wonderful a business they have in our own small town and so many others from Orlando, Lakeland and Tampa love them too! We are so proud of you and for you!

Our girls had an excellent time this week at our girls Valentines tea! Excellent food! Wow...so beautifully presented, scones were warm and really the best I have had, choc.covered strawberries were so good...Service excellent and southern charm over the top! Thanks for everything and we will be back for more of that Sweet Strawberry Tea!

We just wante to write and tell Susan thanks so much for serving us the best scones we have had and the Strawberry Tea was delicious! they weren't serving Tea the day before New Years and we were visiting from Scotland and I was just completely impressed by the Strawberry Scones! Much sweeter than at home! Thanks for that Southern Hospitality and your kindness to stop what you were doing with your huge sale after Christmas and serve us scones and Tea! Much Success in the New Year!

What a great Tea for a Birthday....the food was just delicious, the tea room decorated to perfection, the tea was so perfect and the staff attentive to everything! Will take all of my employees for a tea soon. Thanks for everything and the love you put in all you do!
