Green HippieOctober 30, 2016Such a great tea shop! It's an experience. Their food is good and they have a huge selection of teas. Do not miss their high tea!- Recommended teas with lots of flavor: Casablanca, Strawberry Milkshake, Vanilla Raspberry Truffle. All surprising and wonderful in flavor. Not what you would expect!
LilaJanuary 28, 2013I luv going there it is so comfy and it just sends a good vibe through out the whole place and the waitresses are so nice!!!
Alan SchultzJanuary 7, 2017Vanilla cream tea was fantastic, the chipotle chicken panini was also quite good and the lemon dessert crepe was amazing!
Their version of afternoon tea makes this place one of my favorite places to eat in the Capital Region. Soup + quiche + scones. Amazing.
Kelsie SeehusenOctober 27, 2015They have lots of vegetarian options, and can adjust non-veggie meals for you. Also, their red pepper and Gouda soup is awesome!- Favorite foods: chipolte chicken panini, chicken and roasted red pepper crepe, and lobster bisque soup. Also be sure to try the scones! The best you'll ever have!!
