Variety: The teas at Shady Gables are incredible. There's such a variety. I have a few favorites and I highly recommend the Southern Bell. Delicious. Any tea will compliment the tasty chicken salad served with scones, cookies, and finger sandwiches. This tea room is a favorite between my girlfriends and I. We go for special occassions and mostly just to catch up and have some laughs. The servers are adorable and are always willing to join in on conversation. The evironment is a bonus. The walls display local art work and shelves are lined with affordable finds that can turn any average Joe into an avid tea drinker. I look forward to taking my mother and sister to Shady Gables and to my next tea party with the girls. It's such a positive experience. |

Variety: My first visit to Shady Gables Tea Room was delightful. They have the largest variey of teas of any tea room that I've visited. The food was very good, the tea assortment was outstanding and the gift shop was excellent. The grounds and setting in an old Victorian type home was just the right touch. Oh, and I loved the many hats and dress-up items that were furnished....perfect! Can't wait to visit on my return to Versailles! |

Variety: Shady Gables is my favorite place to go! The atmosphere is very relaxing and the food is always outstanding. The selection of teas seems almost endless and I keep a large number of them at home to enjoy whenever I want. A day without Shady Gables tea is like a day without sunshine! |

Variety: This is the most beautiful Tea Room you will ever venture into! It is a fully restored Victorian,(much of the work done by Hnad by the Lovely owner, Reba). She has it decorated beautifully, and every season is changed to reflect the season's mood. Flowers bloom on the property, and once inside, its a sensory overload of abslolutley beautiful Tea related items. The service is excellent, and the Teas are of the finest quality you will find anywhere. It is a little piece oh Heaven on earth! Do something nice for yourself, and your friends, please don't pass up a Queen's Tea here in the heart of the Ozarks! We love you, Reba! |

Variety: Tea at the Shoppe at Shady Gables is just as Miss Reba boasts on her website. She treated us like Royalty! We planned an entire day around this little corner of God’s creation and we enjoyed every minute of it. We ate, shopped and enjoyed the lush gardens! Thank you Miss Reba for being the perfect Hostess to my family! Sincerely, Mrs G. Stanford, Kansas City |

Variety: Excellent tea room. Everyone, especially Reba, is a delight to talk to, the food is great, beautiful decor. My niece had a birthday tea party in February and a couple of her friends came back to Shady Gables for their birthday party. |
