Food: We didn't get a chance to get over to the Tea Room whilst we were over from the UK, but I did meet Louise at St Pete's beach and she told us to make sure we went. Now that we're home and i've had the time to look at these amazing reviews I can't wait to go back so we can go! Has anyone ever travelled so far just for a tea room? |

Food: We were in Florida in April over from the UK on our annual holiday to Disney. That sounds sad, doesn't it! We came across this little gem of a Tea Room. Louise and Neil made us feel so welcome, we were even treated to being seated on the 'Gordon Ramsey' table. We enjoyed a really enjoyable afternoon tea. The tea rooms are really convenient for anyone going to Florida and arriving via Sanford Airport - just a short 10 minutes drive. Louise and Neil have worked really hard at creating the atmosphere in the Restaurant - the paintings are real masterpieces - I must get Neil to do a few commissions for me. We all wish them all the success with this venture. Hope you remember us coming in, Chris, Alison and Laura |

Food: Ye Olde English Tea Room brings the romance and elegance of a proper London afternoon. What makes it better is that the Ye Olde English Tea Room brings the romance and elegance of a proper afternoon tea in London. It’s much different than the Southern Tea Houses in Florida in the cuisine and the atmosphere. It’s a place where men feel relaxed and the women feel pampered. It’s a place where communication between two adults can take place in a romantic unpretentious setting. The proprietors Neil and Louise Ohalloran are naturally great hosts and you are greeted with a kiss that makes your day seem a bit brighter. Sometimes I just go for the kisses from Louise or just to see what wonderful new art collection Neil has painted for the walls or great new dish he has prepared. If you are within 30 miles of Lake Mary you should add it to your places to visit I guarantee you’ll come again and again. You'll fee special when you leave. |

Food: It was absolutely a wonderful experience. I lived in London for three years and this place brought back so many fond memories. The Lobster bisque was the best I have had. The pastries, the tea, the finger sandwiches... they were all delicious...at the end the triple layered chocolate cake just topped off the incredible experience. You definitely will not leave hungry. Louise, the owner was wonderful. I definitely will come again. |

Sometimes, we are disappointed - and sometimes, as in this case, we are absolutely delighted! This tea room is worth the drive from Tampa ... delicious food, outstanding service and beautiful ambience. We hope to return again and again! |

Food: I'm so glad that my husband found this gem in Lake Mary! Ye Old English Team Room serves incredible food...from the chicken waldorf tea sandwiches and rich, creamy lobster bisque to the scrumptious scones with devonshire cream...we enjoyed every morsel! What we enjoyed on equal measure with the food was our hostess, Louise. She made us feel as if we were old friends who had come to visit. And visit again we will...and soon! |

Food: What a hidden gem this tea room is! Initially, we hesitated to go because it is in a mall and we just didn't think you could get that unique experience in a mall. Boy, were we wrong! This tea room is absoloutely elegant, unique and extraordinary. Fine, crisp linens. A perfectly set table. Attention to detail. Outstanding service, hot tea and delicious food. This tea room deserves every 5-star rating it receives ... unlike others on this site that are 3-star at best, but receiving 5 stars any way. We drove over from Tampa. Take my advice - take the drive - you will not be disappointed! |

Food: I took a group of friends as a 'thank-you' to the tea room for lunch and everything was wonderful. The quiche and salad were delicious and the lobster bisque was heavenly! Though we didn't think we'd have room for dessert, the tiered server filled with sweets was too tempting and we enjoyed them all! The service was very personal and attentive. We can't wait to go back. |
