Our shop has been designed to resemble an English tearoom from the 1850s, the time when tearooms began popping up throughout England, and 'teatime' became a national pastime for our British friends.
In the wintertime you can warm yourself by our coal-burning fireplace in the foyer, and in nicer weather you can 'take tea' on our deck, overlooking the Tiber River.

Variety: Overall excellent experience. It is my understanding that it is under new management and the new owners are doing a great job. The variety of teas were almost overwhelming but everyone in our party chose different teas so we were able to experience many. The food was excellent and while appearing to be a small amount at first, it definitely left you feeling stuffed. Loved the numerous varieties of foods so you weren't committing to just one type. We were fortunate to get the private sitting room for four which enhanced our experience. The historic building is lovely and well maintained and decorated perfectly to suit a tea room. The staff was attentive and helpful. The period costume on the server was a nice touch. Recommend highly and will definitely return. |

I took my sister, with our two 5year old daughters as a special treat for my daughter's birthday, and we had a lovely time! In fact we had such a great time my daughter and I went back the next weekend with my MIL and SIL! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, as is the entire staff. We were seated right away, and checked on numerous times throughout our visit, to make sure we had everything we needed, and to answer any questions we had about the historic treasure of a tea house! We had a tour of the whole tea house, and each room is elegant and special in it's own way. There is a whole menu of teas to choose from, everybody gets their own tea pot. An elegant three-tiered tray is served to ... (more) |

Variety: I return every summer with my mom to start my summer vacation,and I'm never disappointed. The servers are lovely, and the food is always different and interesting. The added treat of strolling through Ellicot City shops makes for a great day. |

Variety: Although I've here several times, I will not return. I arrived on Thursday for an 11:30 seating with my 78-year old mother and sister, both from out of town., at precisely 11:17. The hostess notified me that the scones were not ready. I said that that was fine, as I knew I was a few minutes early. The hostess then took her attention elsewhere. I pleasantly asked, can we be seated, and imagine my surprise when she said flatly 'no'. She noticed my surprise and indicated that the staff needed full access for set up. The tea room was totally empty and it was obvious to me that the tables were set,. I said well I guess we'll find somewhere else to go for 10 minutes. We made our way to an adjacent antique shop, where the shop owner overheard our conversation and graciously offered my mother... (more) |
