Sun closed Mon closed Tue 11:00am – 5:00pm Wed 11:00am – 5:00pm Thu 11:00am – 5:00pm Fri 11:00am – 5:00pm Sat 11:00am – 5:00pm

For nearly 15 years we have had the pleasure of serving our guests in our cozy tea cottage in Historic Downtown Dunedin and for that privilege, we thank you.

We are now venturing out to concentrate on an opportunity that focus on our catering side of the business and offerings for larger groups, who we had to turn away in the previous years. Though, I struggled with this decision for a long time and have decided it is best to expand our catering business and large group tea luncheons. We will, however, be offering two days a month, regular tea seatings for our guests who wish to have smaller seatings for individuals.

Reservations are still required and we look forward to serving you in our usual style at our new production and tea service location in the La Belle Maison Event Venue Bldg. at 461 Grant Street in Historic Downtown Dunedin. Let's chat soon!

      Had a wonderful time years ago with a few of my good lady friends. The place was very cozy, but everything was full of surprises, from food, tea, atmosphere and excitement. I enjoyed myself immensely.

      Both visits were wonderful! As soon as we walked through the door, we were greeted and shown to our seats in the darling tea room.

      Both visits, we were welcomed and treated as old friends.

      The food was delicious!

      Things have been a little on wild side in my personal life--my husband is in the hospital. Add this to family coming in (non-refundable tickets). I wanted to do something really special for my sisters and found Moffat's Cup of Tea. Even though my reservation was last minute, we were treated beautifully. We were looking for someplace to just relax away from all the swirling. This was it. Beautifully prepared food, lovely service. Barbara and the owner/cook (sorry, your name escapes me--the jumble in my life has returned) were very kind to us. It was the right place at the right time. I will be back. Thank you!

      A good friend took me here for my birthday. I highly recommend this tea house.

      We started with mimosas and raspberry hot tea which was delicious. Then we had crab bisque-which was some of the best crab bisque I have ever had. Next they served an individual spinach quiche with a homemade crust to die for. Then they gave us chicken salad on a croissant with cranberries. This was my favorite. Also other tea sandwiches, scones, banana bread, chocolate covered strawberries etc. The food was more than enough. As a matter of fact we even took some home because we were so full. It was all more delicious than the next. And you could tell that everything was made fresh. The owner Ailean who came out to greet us was very personable and told us stories about her hometown. Very enjoyable lunch.

      I’ve already bought a groupon so that I can take my Aunt there. I know she will love it. Please be aware that they have moved locations so the picture is not really a picture of the restaurant. It is actually behind a Scottish restaurant that is also part of the Tea House. Would highly recommend this restaurant for a girl’s lunch, brunch, baby shower, bridal shower etc. You won’t be disappointed.

      ** This is a must do! ** Don't let the quaint exterior fool you, because this tea service will exceed your expectations. I purchased $60 for $30 High Tea for 2 on Groupon, which was accepted without question.

      Our server Barbara welcomed us with 2 mimosas and our choice of hot tea (Jasmine tea was very good!). Next was the seasonal soup (crab bisque-excellent!) and a savory mini spinach quiche. This was followed by a 3-tiered plate which included assorted tea sandwiches, the most delicious chocolate scones and banana bread and a top tier filled with chocolate covered strawberries, cream puffs and mini blackberry tarts. Everything was flavorful and yummy!

      Barbara was a very attentive server and explained all the courses, ingredients and differences between tea offerings. Setting is cheerful, yet intimate and a reservation is a MUST. The owner (and chef-I believe) Ailean is a hoot and not only welcomed us guests but talked with us, as if we were old friends. When making your reservation let Ailean know if you have special dietary restrictions-and she will do her absolute best to accommodate you.

      I will definitely be back and this will be a reliable go-to when family and friends visit. I highly recommend Moffat's Cup of Tea in Dunedin, FL

      I love tearooms and I have visited many in several different States. I've been to bigger and more elaborate ones, but none can surpass the graciousness of the owner and server, nor the quality and quantity of the food. Not only did we receive a cup of crab bisque before the sandwiches and sweets, but also an individual quiche! Run, don't walk to Moffatt's Cup of Tea'

      Moffat's Cup of Tea may be small in size, but they live up to the old addage - 'Good things come in small packages'. Our Tea Party was made more enjoyable by our knowledgeable and attentive servers Barbara and Jordan. From the homemade soup and kisch, to the bottomless pots of tea, it was evident that everything was prepared from scratch, and fresh for us that day - it was all delicious. I highly recommend Moffat's Cup of Tea. Thank you, Ailean!

The presentation really made our tea even more lovely with fresh flowers, and a beautifully quaint decor.

For the first time I was able to enjoy teatime without feeling like I was being cheated. All the sanwiches and desserts/pastries were phenominal. I will be making this a regular part of my dining out!

The owner was wonderful and very acccomodating. She is a treasure and so is this spot for tea!

      It was four weeks ago yesterday that my daughter and I went to tea at Moffat's. I've been to a number of tea rooms. This one is quite small, but very friendly, and the food was delectable. The only thing that rather surprised me was that we were not offered a choice of teas. That wasn't a problem, however, since we were both happy with the tea of the day.

      What I especially appreciated was that this was my first tea after needing to eat gluten-free. My daughter had told them this when making the reservations, so Moffat's was prepared. No, I didn't get to have a scone, but what I did get to have was SO GOOD! Thank you, Moffat's, that I don't have to give up High Tea just because I need to eat gluten-free!

      I was looking for a teahouse to take my daughter, and I'm always leery of going to place where the reviews are all perfect which means that I believe the owner cook the reviews. Really what are the odds of perfect reviews week after week, 61 or so reviews and other tearooms barely have a handful on this site - little suspicious to me. Consider when you look at a more reputable place like urban spoon and all the reviews are negative except for one which is actually done by the teahouse itself.

      I visited this tearoom with some friends and was disappointed. While the tea itself was wonderful and the food was good, the service and ambiance was lacking. In order to visit the ladies room, you have to walk through the kitchen, making it less than appealing. The service was hurried and we felt that we were being rushed. I've been to other tea houses and never felt like I wasn't welcome to stay a reasonable length of time. The saving grace was the tea and food. I'm sure that the owner will respond to this and somehow blame me for my complaint, but that's ok. Probably won't be returning.

Everything is clearly baked on site, and this is a feast for the eyes as well as the tummy. I have a good appetite but could not finish all the wonderfully varied offerings so I took them home to my husband who is now upset that he didn't come with us!

      Service in the resturant was okay. The room was a bit crowded, bathroom was dirty, no soap. Calling for reservations is a hassle. They NEVER answer the phone, it takes days for them to call you back, then when I called to confirm, I found they had the date of the reservation wrong! Then, on our 2nd visit, when I called to cancel, the owner called me back to chastise me (for cancelling with 4 days notice) because they had 'held our table' for two weeks. Ridiculous.

      My sister and I took our mother there on 5/7/11 in celebration of Mothers Day. The whole experience was horrible. It stated with not being allowed to choose our own tea. Rather the owner chooses for you. If a quest wishes to a refill one must wait for the waitress, as quest are not provided with they own teapot. During dessert my mother found a piece of bone china in bedded in her dessert. When I reported this to the waitress she brought it to the attention of the, who failed to come to our table and apologize personally. I would not recommend this tea house to anyone. Save your money.

      Our visit to Dunedin this March was a chance to enjoy once more the company of our hostess, Aileen, and her lovely daughter who served us this time. Our first visit ever was in March 2010 and we knew we'd want to go back each year. The tomato bisque, as so many have mentioned, is wonderful, and the sandwiches and sweets offered never fail to please. And no matter what the iced tea afficionados say, a cup of hot tea is the best beverage to cool you off in the summer time! You'll never fail to get an excellent, refreshing cup at Moffat's.

      See you in 2012, God willing,

      Took my daughter to her very first tea time with her very own Nana and had the best time ever. Excellent food. She loved the tomato bisque soup (mommy did too). Did I mention Katherine is only 10 months old?? Mommy loved the scones & clotted cream, the cucumber dill sandwiches & the chicken salad on croissant. We had a wonderful time chatting with ladies at the other table who were visiting all the way from Toronto. The hostess was lovely, cheerful & informative. Aileen knew that my mom can't have nuts so she prepared a cucumber croissant in place of the chicken salad for her. Wonderfully attentive to details and cooperative to peoples special dietary needs. Can't thank Aileen enough for making it a lovely day.

      'Moffat's Cup of Tea' is such a jem in the Dunedin area. When we was visiting my husband's family last year I had the luck to bring a dear friend to celebrate the life of my English Mum who had passed away. Joy and I passed a lovely afternoon having tea and getting to know Ailean Lyttle, the remarkable lady behind the delightful tearoom with pastel colours, pretty china and facinating collections all around. I meant to come home and write a glowing review but life got in the way.

      A year has passed and my father is now gone and we are back visiting Fl. My husband and I had tea today at Moffat's in honour of Mum's passing 3 years ago yesterday and I was delighted that everything is better than ever. Libby served a delicious crab bisque to start. We then enjoyed the tiered cake stand of egg salad, cucumber and chicken salad sandwiches, banana bread and strawberry scones with homemade special cream, and ended with tiramisu squares, chocolate brownie with fruit, a peanut butter delight and petite choix. All of these served with a wonderful strawberry blend tea. The milk was served from a fun cat milk jug!

      Libby was so attentive, we couldn't have had better service. My only sadness was that I didn't get to chat with Aileen and hear more wonderful stories about her Mum and her heritage. But I understand she is busy with a new venture, The Gaelic Dish Restaurant, that she hopes to have open by Mother's Day. I wish her much success and can't wait to try it's fare.

      This really is the most charming and welcoming tearoom, like sharing a good chat and smile with a friend in their home. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I do.

      My sister and I try to have tea when ever we travel. Our visit to Moffat's Cup of Tea definitely met our expectations of a quality Tea Room. Ailean served our choice of tea along with a beautiful tea luncheon. Each of the selections on the 3 tier tray was excellent. There wasn't any question that everything had been made fresh that day. We also enjoyed the tomato soup served in a tea cup as a first course. We will definitely go back to this quaint tea room in a beautiful Florida town on the Gulf of Mexico.

      Absolutely wonderful experience. I called very last minute to see if we could have a spot and she was so kind to squeeze us in! When we walked in their was a very active 80th (I think) birthday party going on and to say that every one was having a good time, would be an understatement! After the party left we were surrounded by soft music and we were able to take in all of the decor. The food and tea were all fantastic! I have to admit that the soup was my favorite!! GREAT JOB!

      My bridesmaids and I had an amazing time at this tea house. I hosted a tea party as a thank you for my girls. The owner is beyond fun and friendly, and it was so much fun interacting with her.

      The food is amazing. I am an incredibly picky eater, and I loved everything she put on the table. I also am not a tea drinker at all, but she had so many amazing fruit flavors, that I found two that I loved.

      The place is adorable and charming, and the overall experience was wonderful.

      Moffat's Cup of Tea has the perfect setting in your charming cottage that fits in so well with the Scottish traditions of Dunedin. It was a pleasure to meet you, Aileen, and we enjoyed your hospitality along with the delicious food. Starting with the tomato bisque,then the tiered plates of sandwiches and variety of sweet treats that you prepared for us was so filling that we came away with a box of leftover goodies to eat later. My mother always prescribed a good cup of tea as the remedy for anything that ailed us, and the perfectly prepared pot of tea you set out for us was just what we needed to relax. We look forward to coming back again on our next visit to Dunedin so we can enjoy the chicken salad on a croissant, the egg salad and cucumber sandwiches on homemade bread and the endless cups of hot, soul-refrshing tea!

      Every February I make my way down to Florida for 6 weeks. The first place I call is Moffat's Cup of Tea. I look forward to the freshest of ingredients in every food item on the tiered server. Everything they make is wonderfully tasty with the seasonal fruits and vegetables they use. I love to try new places as I travel. I like to sample everyone's version of 'Afternoon Tea.' Through Europe, Canada and the US, Moffat's is always one of the best. The tea service at the Ritz in London is quite lovely, but the food will never compare to Moffat's. Do yourself a favor and make your own pilgrimage to Moffat's Cup of Tea. You will enjoy the charm of your entire experience, from the hostess to the atmosphere to the incredible food. I guarantee you will love it as much as I do, and be very sad when it is time to leave.

      Nice tea room, good food. I loved the small house - and the fact that all 7 of us were alone. Staff is wonderful and very friendly. Price is a little on the high side , but that's to be expected in downtown Dunedin. I expected to have a variety of teas to try, versus just one flavor. Only thing I would caution, is to ensure you bring enough cash in case on or more of your guests does not show. If I would have known ahead of time that I needed to pay for those not showing, I would have been more prepared. Other than that, the bride to be had a wonderful time and that is all that matters.

      From the moment that my mother and I arrived for our tea luncheon to the moment we left we were treated to a tea experience that we truly enjoyed. It was wonderful and relaxing. We were enchanted by the ambiance of the little tea cottage – so cozy! The food was incredibly delicious! The Melba peach soup, the fresh baked scones, the wonderful array of tea sandwiches and the delicate sweets were beautiful and tempting. The charming owner, who never allowed our teacups to remain empty, served us. There was effort, time and thought given to our tea luncheon preparations – from the beautiful presentation of the tea service that included perfectly brewed raspberry tea (my favorite), to the artful packaging of the teatime goodies that we took home. As we left Moffat’s my mother and I knew that we had found a little treasure of a tea cottage in Dunedin, and knew that we would return to it time and time again.

      I really would be hard pressed to come up with enough adjectives to describe how much we love this place! Our second visit was last weekend and we've already made reservations for our next visit in September. My daughter and I took my vacationing Mom there in March for our first visit. It was wonderful! They were so attentive and friendly. One of our party was almost an hour late but they never gave it a second thought and kept us entertained and the tea coming until she arrived. We went again on Saturday with someone who had never been there and she cannot wait to go back. She has a huge sweet tooth and was very impressed with the blueberry tarts and lemon cakes. I loved the chicken salad (just like mine!) and the banana date bread was so moist and yummy!! By the way, we had chocolate chip scones in March and last weekend, the blueberry ones and they were perfect; done the way all scones should be! My Mom visits us at least 4 times a year and she's got her favorites to dine at each visit and Moffat's is now part of that list!

      my friends and I had tea here this weekend. we have been to several tea rooms together. the service was fine. the food was average. we have had better. the chicken salad was fine. the scones seemed like they were stale they broke apart in many pieces. did not care for the devonshire cream it tasted like sour cream. the same creme seemed to be used in the cream puffs. the tart with blueberries was very good. however, no one cared for the lemon pastry. the atomsphere is nice. the shocking part was that we were given one bill for all of us. we have been to other tea houses and they always asked how we wanted to pay. some of us were going to pay with cash and the others had debit cards. when the server came to take our check we were told that we could only use cash or checks. how absurd! what business does not take credit cards. one of my party told the woman, who I assume was the owner, and she stated that she tells everyone they have to use cash. my friend told her that in fact she had not been told this. you should tell people your policy when they arrive before they have their tea. i don't know what people do who don't have any cash.. i guess they have to wash tea cups to pay off the debt.

      A friend and I took my daughter to this tearoom. I'm sorry to say I was disappointed. Although the atmosphere could be charming in a whimsical sort of way, the quality of the tea was low, and the food was disappointing at best. There was no selection of teas. Teapots were not left at the tables for the guests to serve themselves, and I was annoyed by the constant interuptions to pour tea and or for the staff to talk about other parties held there and their stint on Bridezilla. The Tampa Bay area has some outstounding tea rooms, this is not one of them.

      I was just on this site, reading reviews, trying to see which teahouse I'd like to go to... After reading how the owner has responded to a few customers, I am completely turned off by this teahouse! I don't like the way you have responded to the few people who said something negitively...it was just rude! I also have to suspect that the owner is pretended to be other people... On the 3 negative reviews i've seen on this page, someone right away comes jumping to your defense?? Weird. Ifyour only sign is the one posted on your picture, then I can totally see how that one lady kept missing it, espically since it's a house! That sign looks tiny! And who doesn't take credit card these days?? Esp if a meal per person cost (assuming) about $20? Not everybody carrys cash! Anyways, glad I read these reviews before I went! Owner- you shouldn't be so rude to customers!! Thats such a pet peeve of mine(which is why you won't be getting my business)

      I apologize to the tea room owner for again responding to this last response again!

      I can assure you I AM NOT THE OWNER OF THIS TEA ROOM.' While it may not have been taught in CULINERY SCHOOL' to come to the defense of other businessess because of competition....I am not close to this tea room at all and felt your review was silly. Again, if you want to drink lots of tea and do not want to wait on a server...why don't you ask for the Tea to be left on your table?

      I think you have other issues apparently and to write this much over my response to you, is a bit over the top! It is an honor to pour a guest their tea...I wasn't there and if the server had a piercing or whatever, I would not especially like that or let my servers dress like that.

      But please, don't imply THAT THIS IS THE OWNER OF THIS TEA ROOM because it is not!

      Like I said, you have so much opinions and have been to culinery school...you really ought to open your own tea room in that area with a large sign too!

      Maybe this owner has enough repeat business...maybe she can't afford another sign....maybe she wants it to look quaint instead of commercial appearing...what ever....but just get over it and move on. But don't blame the owner for this review and response as she doesn't know me or responsible for it.

      In response to 'Tea Lover' on 5-4, who felt the need to write after my posting: I honestly find it very hard to believe that you have no connection to this tearoom. You say you actually own a tearoom in this area. If so, they why would you defend this tearoom? Isn’t this tearoom competition? From the few pages of reviews I have seen, it looks like this teahouse has only received good reviews and that the owner responds back to thank them. She hasn’t responded yet to my review. I’m sure it came as a shock to her to not have something perfect written about her place. (By the way, I have a feeling you are the owner of this tearoom)

      “Nit picking”—was this not a teahouse review page I wrote this on? Isn’t that what reviews are for? To point out your experience? The good and the bad? I did both.

      No, I had not been there before. I went once (back in Sep of 08.) I drove up and down the same road for 15 mins. I past the tearoom numerous times. It’s a house. So while, yes, I saw it, I thought it was a home, since I didn’t see a sign. From the road, the tiny sign was totally hidden by trees. Not a smart move for a business.

      “Its an honor to have your tea poured” Why is that? Please explain how it is an “honor” to have my tea poured by a teenager dressed in jeans (and I believe I remember her having some sort of weird body piercing—I think I remember it was a nose ring…) I'd so love to know where the 'honor' in that is!

      When I go to a tea house, I want to drink lots of tea. When I “have the honor to have my tea poured” that means that I cannot drink as much tea as I would like because I have to wait around for it. The thing that is so nice, relaxing and enjoyable about a teahouse, is the once the food and tea has been served, you are left alone. Unlike a restaurant, you can have private time to relax and chat without being bothered. But when you are anxiously sitting around, waiting for more tea and are constantly bothered by a server pouring you tea and serving you sugar, it really takes away the “teahouse” feel to it. It was defiantly the least relaxing teahouse visit I’ve experienced.

      I have been to almost every teahouse in the Tampa Bay area (so probably yours too! If you actually are the owner of another teahouse). This and the one in Hyde Park were the only ones that took the tea away. All others either had a candle teapot burner or just left it there. The tea is so boiling hot when it’s served! I’ve never had cold tea from a pot that was just left at the table, at a teahouse.

      I know tea leaves are expensive. I buy my tea from Teavana. I’m not stupid. But I do know that you can reuse the same tea leaves for a few pots. And I do know that some, if not all, of the teahouses in this area do that. That is why I pointed out the fact that you can just refill the pot with hot water..

      While 2 bowls of sugar for 2 people does sounds like a lot. So what? You didn't metion how long they were there or how much tea they drank. If they were there for hours and drink numerous pots, whats the problem if thats how much it takes to make each cup of tea to their liking. The few costumers who do that will not throw you out of business. To each there own---some people like their tea very sweet, while others, bitter.

      I went to culinary school. I’ve worked in a restaurant before. I’ve worked for a caterer. I know all about the difficulty of preparing and serving food. So, except for me actually owning a restaurant/teahouse, I’ve “walked in their shoes.” Notice, I did not complain about the food. I said it was delicious! It was just the teapots and sugar I wrote negatively about. For me, it took away the “teahouse” feel. It felt more like a restaurant than the teahouses I’ve been use to going to. I know that all businesses, small and large, struggle. And I am in NO way hoping they go out of business. (On a side note, The best teahouse I’ve been to was the Main Street Tea House in Safety Harbor . The original owners ended up selling it, then the quality of the food when down, the started having male servers, they changed some recipes, and they eventually went out of business. I was SOOOO upset when I heard that!)

      So again, “Nit picking”??— I was writing my experience, my opinion on this review page. Again, Isn’t that what reviews are for? So sorry it upset you.

      Anyways, if you are the owner of this teahouse, I'm not writing to bring you down. I'd like to see you succeed, which is why I'm being honest about a few aspects of my visit that I feel could be improved. I'm a big fan of teahouses and I'd like to see you do well. Don't worry about skimping out on a dollar's worth of sugar if it risks customer satisfaction. A more comfortable environment will surely bring repeat business and make up your profit margin in no time. Also, a more clearly marked location will likely bring you more business from the locals who have not yet experienced the joys of a tea house. That is why large companies spend MILLIONS of dollars per year for billboards that people only see from the corner of their eye. The fact is, it works. You don't need an expensive billboard, but it wouldn't break the bank to have a larger and more visible sign.

      If you are the owner of another teahouse, I don’t understand why you’d jump to the defensive of another teahouse---that was defiantly not something they taught us to do in culinary school! Lol.

      Question to the owner: Do you mind telling us why don’t you leave the teapots and sugar on the table?

      Now that I see your resonse to TeaLover--I find it very rude and ridiculous that you only expect to have people who truly understand tea write on here. What makes you think I don't understand tea and teahouses?? Because I didn't write a wonderful review? How rude and disrespectful of you! It was you, after all, who asked me to write a review on this site as I waa leaving! (bit you in the butt, huh?! lol!)

      Responging the the Sherry who wrote the previous post. I frequent tea rooms frequently and why would you critisize a tea room when YOU WERE GIVEN A SPECIFIC TIME AND THEN EXPECTED THEM TO SEAT YOU EARLY! Just because they had an open table, doesn't mean they can seat you early. That is very selfish to expect to be seated when they are probably trying to finish with their other parties and this is a busy time. I know their food is not premade and very delicious. Quit critisizing when you probably couldn't do have the work.

      While this was my first time at this tea house, it is not my first time to any tea house. I will not be going back to this one as my experience was less than satisfying. It is very very small and the only window air conditioner in the room kept going off as the Circuit Breaker kept tripping--thus making for an uncomfortable experience. Also, they brought out the 3 tier tray with dessert on it then brought out the quiche which they 'forgot'. I arrived 15 minutes early and even though 3 of their 5 tables were open, I was told I could not be sat until 1 pm--even though no one else was going to occupying those tables. It was a less then enjoyable experience. I definitely did not get what I paid for nor what their menu states for their 'most expensive' tea. Also if you use the ladies room, note that they keep all the dirty dishes in there...Think before going her.

      I love tea rooms and was excited to go to a birthday party for one of my daughter's friends at this one. Many of the food items looked & tasted premade. No sugar cubes or fun things for the girls to do with the tea. They put the cupcakes out first thing...it was such a distraction for the girls (and they wouldn't give them any drinks or eats until everyone got there - hard for little ones to be so patient). A lady working there (manager/owner?) was loud & grumpy and was in the kids' faces taking pictures - weird. The story time wasn't a fun girly, tea party or princess book, but plain old boring Cat in the Hat. Pics out front came out cute, though there weren't enough hats for all the girls. Definitely wouldn't recommend. Emma's Rose in St. Pete is much better in every respect.

      I am responding to this post as I was reading the reviews. I have no agenda and no connection to this tea room. In fact, I have a tea room and been in the tea business for a long time. I feel that this customer needs some education in the art of taking tea. First of all, it is an honor to have your tea poured. I am sure they are not trying to 'save on water'. It is important to keep the tea hot and perhaps they want to have a servants heart and pour your tea for you and keep it hot too! We do both depending on the situation. If it is a busy time and the table is crowded, we sometimes keep the tea in a cozy on a table close by and refill cups often. There have been guests burned if the pot is left on the table, especially with children in a group. A lot of times people are so busy talking they don't watch their children and also, sometimes people have spilled the tea and can burn themselves. As far as it being 'only water'. Please....good tea leaves are very expensive by the pound. It is not just water. You mentioned she brought different kinds of sugar....have you thought she might have been bringing you something to try that was different or new? We do leave our cubes on the table, but I have had a table for 2 use 2 bowls of sugar cubes. How they would have used that much sugar along with all of the other sweet items is a mystery to me. Also, you got lost? If you have been there before, that is quite a mystery too. I have spoken to a lot of different customers who have enjoyed this tea room and I feel this is a bit nit-picking. I am sure if you had asked, they would have left it on the table. Don't ruin the tea experience by this complaining when small businesses are trying to keep their head above water. For food to be delicious, it is very expensive to buy top ingredients and the labor involved in all of it...set up, service, cooking, clean up and much more. If you go to let's say applebee's, you will spend as much or more and not have near the experience and quality of food. Food prep on tea food takes twice as long to prepare as throwing a burger on the grill or making a salad.

      Don't gripe until you walk in another's shoes.

      I've been to many of the tea rooms in the Tampa Bay area and found that Moffat's service and quality was lacking. Neither the tea pot, nor the comdiments (sugar, sugar substitutes and cream) were never left on the table and we were left with empty cups for minutes at a time which seems like forever when you've just bitten into a piece of 5 day old crusty cholocate cake. It was 62 outside and even colder inside with no working heat. The scones are not authentic the cream is sour cream based (also not authentic) I notice that there were no tea bags hanging from the pots they poured with, which was curious to me especially when I found a tea in the box at Publix that shared the same name and flavor as the tea I was served at Moffats. Premium tea doesn't have a square piece of paper on a string. I would not suggest this tea house to anyone.

      My duaghter and three of her friends, and I went to this tearoom last month, in September. I cannot put into words how extrodinary the experience was for us. We had the best of the best...service, hospitality and the best food I have enjoyed in years. Hats (and gloves) off to the owner, Ailean, and her staff. We will be back many times. An absolute 'gem' for the City of Dunedin!

      My friend and I had the most delightful lunch at this charming little tea house today. Everything from the decor to the soup and dessert was absolutely wonderful. The hostess was warm and friendly, and she presented me with a special goodie for my birthday. I am planning on bringing my Red Hat Ladies for afternoon tea here soon. Thank you again Ailean.

      My girlfriends and I attended Afternoon Tea at the quaint little cottage tearoom and WOW what a delight! We were overwhelmed with the cute interior and lovely linens that graced the tables, but most enjoyable was the food and the hostess. The presentation was so beautiful that we hated to dismantel the trays, but we did and enjoyed every bite from the scones to the sandwiches and fresh pastries. We will be back for more. Thanks again for a wonderful afternoon!

      I brought my mother and my sister here on August 11th. It was our last outting as the three of us for awhile, since my sister is leaving for college in New Haven. I wanted us to have a special time and get memories. I did not tell my mom or sister where we were going. When we got to Moffat's Cup of Tea, we were greated by Ailean and a cozy little room full of memories and beautifully decorated tables. We were the only ones there and the time was awesome. My mother kept saying she felt like we were in a doll house having a tea party. The tea houseis beautiful and peaceful. We had a relaxing and memorable time. The food was fabulous and Ailean was wonderful. She talked and laughed with us and shared her own memories with us. We will be back often!! We LOVED this place.

      Oh my, what a charming little place with a gourmet flair! I have been to several tea rooms in Florida and this one is the best! An impressive tea selection and the hostess is so good about educating her guests on the types and flavors. The food, too die for...absolutely the BEST scones I have ever eaten and the fresh fruit tarlettes, scumptious:) I was also impressed with the fruit soup for summer. the entire experience was a delight. A thoughtful and enviting spot for tea. I'll be back again and again.

      The front room of this cottage-y house is set up for 'formal' afternoon tea -- floral china, linens, flowers, etc. The teas are your choice, she has a fine variety. The food is beautifully prepared and served -- and delicious, and almost too much! The room is full of interesting and decorative teatime memorabilia and flowers. We'll return.

      My daughter and niece are 8 days apart. My sister-in-law and I wanted to do something special to celebrate their 8th birthdays. Special is to weak of a word to describe the amazing time we had at Moffat's. I highly recommend it to young and old. The food is fabulous, all home made and gourmet. The tea fantastic. The owne Ailean catered to us in such a way that we felt like guests in her comfortable home. We look forward to going back many more times.
