August Tea Room
I am sorry, but my mom and I were not impressed. Although the shop is cute, the tea experience was lacking. Nice selection of tea's but we were only able to select 1 flavor and had to ask for more hot water. We were never offered a refresh of the tea so by the third cup, the flavor of the tea was gone and we were left with just the hot water. Food was lacking as well. Soup was very bland. Sandwiches were not fresh and other items were very skimpy and ordinary. The menu said we would have scones but we never saw any. Dessert was too little too late... Sorry Ladies, this could be a charm with the right chef or management.
Tearoom response:
Dear Alice,
As owner of August Tea room I was surprised that your experience at our
tea room was lacking and disappointing.
Our policy that all our customer can
select there own tea, if you and your
mom have decided to share and wanted to
try a different tea we would have change
it for you. Even with large events, we offered at least 3 to 4 selection of teas and at any time can add more if requested.All our tea service with the
exception of the luncheon does not include scone or dessert. Luncheon includes only soup, salad and tea sandwiches. All tea services such as the
Royal & Queen tea are serve on 3 tier serving the dessert,scones, cookies and
sandwiches are serve all at together. I
am a lost of your comments 'desert was too little too late.
We try to be gracious in the face of constructive criticism. After all we learned from our customers in the past.
However, we continue to strive better
and if you decided to give us another
chance please let us complement you and
your mom with our scones and dessert.
