The Grand Tea Room

My walking group visited this tearoom to celebrate a birthday. The decor was beautiful and the service was leisurely. The savory and desserts were wonderful, but the sandwiches were ordinary and somewhat bland. Other than the sandwiches, it was a very pleasant experience.

I have had tea at many places, but The Grand Tea Room was the best. We had the light lunch tea: the salad was freshly picked, the fruit was delicious, the sandwiches were great and varied, and then came the scone. The scone was clearly made in their kitchen and was just terrific. They currently have 40 teas. I had the Florence tea flavored with chocolate and hazelnut - it was fabulous. Have never had anything quite like this. My friend and I would recommend The Grand Tea Room to everyone.

This place is beautiful, however, I feel as if you do not get enough food for the money you spend. I will say the service was fantastic! That is always a plus.

We had a private party 80th birthday celebration at The Grand Tea room. The service and food were wonderful. The staff are warm and accommodating and our group of 25+ had a very special and fun time. Because they are a newer tea room, they are flexible and more hospitable than some of the tea rooms around San Diego. I have been to most of the tea rooms in San Diego and The Grand Tea room is similarly priced. The decor is Victorian and decorated in the style of a traditional tea room. My mother and her guests raved about her tea party! I will definitely come back.

Very much enjoyed the entire experience in January. Had a quaint small table in front of the fireplace. Also enjoyed shopping afterwards.
