Variety:     Artistry:     Service:     Food: What a great tea room! The food is superb, every tea I have had there is fantastic, and the service is friendly. Add the lovely antique decor and the setting in Niles for a wonderful all-around experience.

Variety:     Artistry:     Service:     Food: Tyme for Tea is a treat for me. I've invited my mom, m-i-l, employees and friends several times over the years and consistently enjoyed a delightful experience. I've found the quality and service to be as good as any tea room I've visited - and better than many. To me, the food is the highlight. I find the small-town, homey environment more comfortable than most upscale tea rooms.

Variety:     Artistry:     Service:     Food: Tyme for Tea is a real gem among tea rooms in the Bay Are. located in Niles, a quaint little community with lots of antique shops, Tyme for Tea is actaully located within an antiques store, it's very charming. You have a great selection of loose leaf teas to choose from, I got the house blend which was excellent. After your pot of tea comes out, they bring a scone just warm from the oven. The scones are to die for, served with lemon curd and some sort of mock devonshire cream. They relly allow you to take your time here, watching until you are ready for the next course to come out. Then comes the sandwiches & sweets. It's an assortment of cucumber, chicken salad and other finger foods. It's delicious, and the server came to refil my pot several times, never rushing me. You can also order a glass of champagne if you like. Overall, this is a great place, they have been around a long time and have many loyal customers. And the teacups are gorgeous!

Variety:     Artistry:     Service:     Food: Tyme for Tea and Co. is located in the middle of the 'original Hollywood', so it's a great place to have that old time feel. They don't have a semi-large variety of tea, but my all time favorite is the 'Tyme for Tea Blend'. I've also tasted their Apple Green Tea (can't remember the name) and it tastes like apple cider. The sandwiches needs a bit work, and can be inconsistent. I'm very picky with my bread, and I've come to Tyme for Tea and had really dry bread as if it were made the day before but also had fresh tasting ones, too. I've also had times where my scone was nice and warm but days when it was also semi-warm and a bit cold. Tea Prep: I wish the dishes weren't so unmatched Service: Hit or miss. I've had really cheerful waitresses but I've also had very young and inexperienced ones, too.
