Overview
When we decided to build our tearoom, we thought long and hard as to what it should feel like. Our conclusion was Sunday tea at our Grandmothers house in England. Fine china, good food and good memories. We think we have achieved that based upon our customers comments.

We want our tearoom to be a happy and relaxing place to visit. We hope to see you soon whether it is for lunch, high tea or just a cup of tea and a friendly chat.

Food: Six friends and I enjoyed tea at this wonderful tea room. The High Tea served on a beautiful three tiered Victorian service was more terrific. Unlike some tea rooms that make sandwiches ahead of time so they dry out, these were freshly made. The crustless salmon salads were my favorite. Our waitress was Enlish and most helpful by expaining Spotted Dick and Treacle to us. The variety of individual tea pots and cups were beautiful. Even the March weather was cooperative. It all made for awesome experience. |

Food: My family and I went to the tea room a few weeks ago, and we had an extraordinary experience. The servers were very friendly and attentive. There were so many teas that sounded good, that I found it hard to settle for one(It ended up being the Chai, which was very nice). The food was delicious, and to top it all off the price was right. One suggestion, is definately don't leave without getting a dessert. The treacle pudding is to die for! |

Food: Norma is the best tea room server, EVER, ANYWHERE!!! Eveyone in my party said 'I want the high tea, but can I have ___ instead of blank ___', and Norma very cheerfully wrote it all down & everything came out right! Fabulous presentation--get salad & quiche and enjoy looking at it a moment before you dive in. Come hungry and leave happy! Cinnamon plum tea is a new favorite among our group! |

Food: We came upon this tearoom quite by accident while exploring the Amish area. My brother-in-law is from England & pronounced the whole experience 'excellent'. The meat pies are fabulous, the mashed potatoes with gravy wonderful, as was the tea, the presentation, and the ambiance of the entire experience. The ladies who served us were genuinely friendly. I would highly recommend this tearoom. |

Food: We had high tea and two lunches here shortly before Christmas. The tea was wonderful and the savories, desserts, and scones were incredible. The presentation topped it all. This is THE tearoom of tea rooms. The treacle and sticky toffee puddings were awesome. |

Food: We were there today for High Tea and it was wonderful. It was my first visit and my niece had invited me to celebrate having finished my chemo and radiation treatments. We made a little party of it and the tea was wonderful as were the sandwiches, the pastries and scones. I called my friend as soon as I got home to tell her about it since she loves to go to tea. She is going to come out next week when her girls are home. I will certainly come back. I think you have a wonderful thing going for you. |

Food: My friend and I visited the tea shoppe on Saturday, Nov. 1, 2008, and had an excellent high tea. The apple cinnamon scones were absolutely delicious as well as the assorted sandwiches and desserts. I had Vanilla Spice Tea which was very good. The atmosphere was very warm and friendly and we had a table on the porch which was so cozy and relaxing and made us feel like we were eating in a garden. We have been visiting tea rooms and we will definitely visit your tea shoppe again. Thank you! |

Food: I have been to your tea room twice now this year, in May and in August, and both times everything was superb. I have tried a few tea shops like this and none come close to the authentic experience that you ladies have made it! Service is always excellent, tea and food are sublime! I recommend your establishment to everyone. Next on my agenda is to try your other menu items besides High Tea, which I'm sure are delectable. |

Food: Of all the tea rooms we've visited, this is clearly the best one we've been to and our very favorite. We've come across a lot of places that do their own 'thing', but finding one so authentic and traditional is very refreshing. The food is absolutely fantastic, and the tea is divine. Love the High Tea, and the meat pies! I can't resist ordering both each time I visit! Also, the service is awesome. The kind, wonderful ladies were more than accommodating to my mom and I's unique situation, and even remembered the special things we required on return visits without us having to say anything. The decor is lovely, and we love the gift shop with the British food! We hope to have many return visits and bring new friends to enjoy this delightful experience. |

Food: I went to this wonderful tea room back in April and it is one of the best tea rooms I've ever been too. The scone was the best I've ever had - it was huge, warm, and tasty! The day I went it was unusally warm and I didn't feel like a tradionial tea so it was nice to find that quiche, and traditional british food (such as a ploughman's lunch) was also offered. I am bringing my good friend with me when I go back in the fall. |

Food: After much anticiaption we made it to your Tea Room today and it met with all of our expectations. Arriving as a birthday party of crowned princesses in little white gloves was finishing added a special touch of roaylty to our girlie day as my friend and I took our daughters for a day out for tea. It was about an hours drive for us and well worth it! Alison Burton July 31 |

Food: This is by far the best Tea Room we have ever found. My mother is from England and we have searched in our area for a good Tea Room without any luck. Whenever relatives from England come to visit we always make the trip to this restaurant because the food, atmosphere and service is unbeatable. I would highly recommend this to anyone even though it is a 50 mile drive for us!!! Well worth the gas!!! |
