If you've never been you Must Go!
This place reminds me of sitting in my Grandmother's kitchen on a rainy day with the smell of cinnanon and fresh baked goodies in the oven waiting to be eaten after a rough day at school. Loved their Strawberries and Cream tea, yummy! This is the perfect little place to get away from the hussle and bussle of the outside world, it's the next best thing to a "Calgon take me away" moment. Loved it! Mary Burns's review

Really delicious
The decor is a bit overwhelming when you first step in, especially as it's such a small room (four, maybe five tables). There is a VERY extensive selection of teas; the two we tried were very nice. The menu is changed every day -- there's a salad of the day, a scone of the day, dessert of the day, etc., as well as some menu items (mostly desserts and sandwiches) that don't change. Whatever you and your dining companion order is all brought on one tiered serving dish -- very pretty! The food was VERY good. Service was a bit slow, I thought, but pleasant. I don't know if they take reservations, but if you want to be sure to have a table you should call ahead -- it's such a tiny space that it fills up quickly. We ate there for lunch Wednesday and every table was taken (and little turnover -- people like to linger over their tea). I found out about SweeTea's on Smalltown -- thanks!
