Variety: I have eaten at the Tea Room regularly for several years now. The food is great and the owner and servers are all extremely nice. It's nice to have a unique place to dine in a fairly small town. If you go, be sure to try the spinach quiche and strawberry cake, YUM! |

Variety: Love the atmosphere of this quaint restaurant. The staff are all personable and the food is divine. I have been coming here for years, celebrating significant events with staff parties, catering to have lunches at the office, 'tea parties' with girlfriends, business meetings and just gathering for no reason except to eat in an inviting restaurant with delicious food, presented with flair. |

Variety: I love the Pegg House! I meet a group of boisterous women there on a fairly frequent basis. We enjoy not only the food, but the company. The owner of the establishment adds her own personal touch of grace and charm to every delicious pot of tea and every tea party sampler served! I was lucky enough to have my baby shower there, and it was just the right combination of whimsy and practicality for the celebration of a child to come! |

Variety: The Pegg House offers an unpretentious atmosphere where you can laugh and enjoy friends over tea and scones or a lovely lunch. The Tea Room has also catered several affairs for me and opened outside of regualr business hours for special meetings and events. A place for that special birthday lunch! My grandaugher, mother, sister and daughter joined me for the beautiful tiered biscuits and scones and wonderful tea. A perfect ladie's day....what a treat. Thank you for always being so personal and warm! A great addition to our community. |

Variety: I have been to The Pegg House Tea Room several times over the last couple of years. It is a treat to go, usually with girlfriends and/or my daughters and we have always enjoy everything about the restaurant. Ruth, the proprietor, does a great job and I am looking forward to my next visit. |

Variety: I absolutely love this tea room! The teas are addictive, and the food is phenomenal. I have been to several High Teas here and the food is fresh, very pleasing to the eye and always delicious. The atmosphere is cozy and quite comfortable. Our server was attentive and very knowledgeable of the food and tea offerings. I recommend this to anyone needing a relaxing escape to nurture yourself or a group of your friends. You will not be sorry! |

Variety: I work directly beside the Tea Room and never miss an opportunity to walk next door and grab some lunch. My stylists and I love their food, but even more, the atmosphere is awesome. The staff is so friendly and really make the experience. It is a great place for lunch, bridal and baby showers, and cutest of all, 'little girl tea parties.' Go and enjoy it for yourself!!!! |

Variety: The worst service I have experienced in North Carolina. Not sure what the attraction to this place is. They serve fairly common teas that can be purchased at Walmart, and serve them extremely slowly. The food is mediocre. I assume all the rave reviews admire the pretentious atmosphere the proprietor is striving for. |

Variety: We had lunch at Pegg House Tearoom after visiting Korner's Folly. It is located in a historic house and is divided into several small rooms for an intimate, relaxing experience. It is quite small though, so reservations are a MUST for Saturdays and probably any day for more than 4 people. The house was tastefully decorated for the holidays (our visit was in mid- Dec). The food and its presentation were fabulous! We had lunch and dessert but did see a traditional tea being served. I rated artistry of tea as just 'good' since only tea bags (Republic Tea) were available. I did like the fact that the pot of tea was served with a stand over a tea candle to keep it warm. The staff were friendly and helpful but a little overwhelmed - the service could have been prompter, especially our initial beverage order. |

Variety: The food is absolutely delicious, the strawberry cake is divine, the staff is friendly, and Ruth is incredibly accomodating. Our group wanted to host an event at the tea room but the date and time were during off hours. Ruth opened up just for our group and worked the event herself. It was a fantastic experience and I will definitely be going again and introducing more people to the great experience there! |

Variety: The tea room was 'dressed' for fall this past Saturday and was very appealing. I especially liked the leaves under the glass table tops. We order the Pegg House Tea and it was just the right amount of variety and the scones were light and not crumbly -probably the best I've eaten. Friendly owner and accomodating staff. I'll go back when I have a chance! |

Variety: The food items were deliciously prepared and delightfully displayed. We enjoyed the variety of sandwiches and excellent British-style scones. The atmosphere was quaint and inviting and the servers were friendly and attentive. Only two items of constructive criticism: while the tea cups were whimsical the teapots were rather plain, and the tea was prepared from commercially available bags not looseleaf. |

Variety: My friend and I are visiting as many tea rooms as possible on the NC and SC tea map. Our tea at The Pegg House Tea Room yesterday was delightful. The scone was the best I have even eaten and all the food was outstanding. The owner and the servers were very friendly and attentive. |

Variety: the best prepared and most delicious food which I had on my entire trip to NC!! Delightful & Truly Home Made. I wrote for and was emailed the recipe for the outrageously good Panini which was served to me there! Fresh and as good as if I had cooked it myself! |

Variety: I am 13 and I LOVE going to the Tea Room! It isn't like some tea room that are all stuck up and formal, it is just a comfy and kind environment. Ruth is so great and the scones are to die for! I always get the Peg House Tea or the Turkey croissant. The food is always awesome. If you are in the area or close by, you should stop in! You will LOVE it (: |

Variety: A group of six of us visited the Pegg House Tea Room and whereas the ambience was inviting I was disappointed with the tea selection. I like black teas and was surprised that darjeeling was not an option. There was a variety of fruity teas though. I had actually been here once before a few years ago and at that time there was no devonshire cream. My niece raved over the devonshire cream she had tasted there the prior week so I went to check it out. The cream is very tasty but it is not a true devonshire cream or at least not like the ones I have tasted in the UK and elsewhere. The real surprise was that my friend commented that quiche was part of the savory offering when she ordered the Pegg House Tea the prior week. This time it was not offered but there was no substitute either. When we asked we were just told they did not have any that day. That means you don't always get the same value for your money. That makes me very unsure about returning. |

Variety: I LOVE having tea at the Pegg House Tea Room. It is my treat to myself. I can be fancy or casual which most days that I go there I'm very casual. It's great for just relaxing and reading a book. |

Variety: I'm a repeat customer at the Pegg House Tea Room and I'm always very impressed at every visit. The house, built in 1885, is very elegant and classy. Service is prompt and very friendly. The desserts are to die for. Keep up the great work. |

Variety: While visiting some friends, we lunched at the Pegg House. It was delightful and so relaxing. Although it was a busy day, our meal was brought promptly and the food was delicious. It was also presented in a pleasing way. I hope to visit the Pegg House again! |

It is always a treat to go to Pegg's. I've taken my bridge groups there and played bridge and had lunch. Ruth and her crew could not have been more accomodating. They bend over backward to make it the best experience possible.!!!!!The food is delicious and presentation is excellent. |

Variety: Everything about our experience at the Pegg House Tea Room was wonderful. I was helping host a bridal shower from out of state and the owner was very accomodating. She worked with us on a package that would suit our needs. Also, not knowing what the house would be like, I was pleasantly surprised by both the atmosphere and food. It was perfect and the bride loved it! |

Variety: Visiting the Pegg House Tea room is like touring an old historic home and being allowed to duck under the velvet ropes and sit down to tea. The many times I have eaten there, I have always been delighted with the fruity iced teas, the delicious sandwiches and of course their signature scones with homemade Devonshire cream. Easy drive from Greensboro and highly recommended! |

Variety: I brought 9 friends with me to celebrate my 13th birthday and we had a wonderful time. Ruth seated us in the yellow room by ourselves and we all enjoyed the Pegg House tea for lunch. The scones and Devonshire Cream were a HUGE hit....everyone loved them. Ruth also made some mini birthday cupcakes whichbadded the perfect finishing touch. The food was great and my friends have asked several times to return to the tea room. |

Variety: I have been going to the Pegg House Tea Room since 2003 and have found The Pegg House Tea to be superb in every way. The scones are better than any I had while visiting England tea rooms. Other menu items are equally delicious. The house is quaint, with slightly squeaky old floors that take you back to a simpler day and time. A most delightful place in every aspect. |

Variety: I hosted a bridal bunch for my niece at the Pegg House yesterday...what an absolutely wonderful event! Ruth was more than gracious...we talked several times during the planning stages and she couldn't have been more helpful. She openned early...just for us. Jessica was an excellent server and the food was divine! Everyone had a wonderful time. I would suggest The Pegg House Tea Room and Ms.Ruth to anyone! Thanks for a perfect event! |

Variety: I had lunch at the Pegg House last Saturday. I was very disappointed with the service and the food. I waited 45 minutes for my lunch to be served. When it came, the cream of broccoli soup was cool and looked as if it was canned cream of mushroom soup with wilted broccoli stirred in. However, the roast beef wrap was delicious! The server apologized for the lateness of my food and said it was due to the fact thay had several large parties to serve. The moral of this story: do not eat there on Saturday when they have large parties to serve. I have eaten at the Pegg House before and the food and service were great! |
