Steeped In Comfort

My friends and I come every month and enjoy the peaceful and homey atmosphere. We have recommended this to many friends.

My friends and I have been here several times and it is always such a pleasure. This is a charming and lovely tearoom. The food is wonderful (especially the scones - try the pumpkin!). Great lunches and reasonable prices. The service is always good and they have a nice selection of gifts and teas to purchase.

I was pleasantly surprised and pleased to find this tea room and to know it was close. I was most impressed with the food and how everything was made from scratch. The food was delicious. I enjoyed drinking out of fine porcelain China because I think tea tastes better, and I think a reasonable selection of tea was offered and the prices fair. The service was slow, and it would have benefited having more than one server. I would have liked to have been offered a warm up on my pot of tea after sipping for 15 minutes or so. I will return and bring new guests as it was worth it to me for the food and the environment.

We had a lovely afternoon tea and sat by the fireplace for warmth. Steeped in Comfort lives up to its name by brewing a perfect pot of tea. They even add a tea cozy to keep your tea at the right temp. They started us off with a home-made fruit tart which had a flakey crust and soft custard topped with ripe strawberrys. The afternoon tea came with a bacon and cheese quiche which was baked to perfection. There were four types of finger sandwiches which was more than enough to fill a hungry tummy. Normally, I never eat the sweets because they are boring and overly sweet. However, this time I wanted to finish all the sweets-pecan pie, sugar cookie, chocolate cake and pumpkin bread. The best part was the scone. The scones were described as 'melt in your mouth' It was a perfect description f... (more)or those heavenly scones.
I highly suggest this tea house. If you want a place for relaxing and enjoying a perfectly brewed pot of tea and delicious scones then try Steppped in Comfort. I have tried several tea houses- including Fairmont high tea- and this is my top pick for tea in the Seattle/Tacoma area:)

I have been here several times with friends, and have also treated my girls to the delightfull world of tea. This place is amazing with such warmth and satisfaction from the gifts to the soothing sips of your choice of tea and a nice choice of great food. My oldest daughter brought my two youngest granddaughters (2 years old and the other 3 months old).
Some of the teas are a blend,and I continue to tell friends and others about this great find.
Enjoy!
