We had an early dinner in their outside dining area under one of their umbrella-shaded tables. This setting is enhanced by the sound of bubbling water from their two water fountains, the shade of the mature trees throughout the dining area, and the fresh greenery of the grapes leaves on their grape trellis along the back end of the dining area. The service staff is knowledgeable, attentive, and helps create a relaxed, family-style feeling. The various food s we enjoyed were all delicious, beautifully presented, and appropriately sized for each course. Highly recommended if you want a European-feel to your outdoor dining in good weather, or simple but tastefully decorated indoor dining room, good service, and delicious food.

Wonderful tearoom. Highly recommend. The staff is always polite, cheerful, and does their best to be accommodating. Elizabeth, the owner, is such a gracious host. Since taking over from the previous owner a couple of years ago, there have been many improvements: updating decor, adding events, and varying the menu. Even the gift shop is worth a visit with wonderful tea choices for sale, as well as teaware, tea towels, and hats/fascinators. And if you like reading fiction related to tea, there are some great choices in a variety genres. And everything is reasonably priced! If you haven't been here for a while, please come check it out. You won't regret it! And if you don't live in the area it is definitely worth the drive.
