Vintage Rose Tearoom, formerly called the Saxonburg Tearoom on Main, is now under new ownership…read more The tea service for adults costs $38 per person, and it includes a loose-leaf steeped kettle of tea, two desserts with fruits, assorted scones with clotted cream and jam, and three flavors of sandwiches. The tea service for children costs $25 per person, and it includes a loose-leaf steeped kettle of tea, two desserts with jam, one scone, and two flavors of sandwiches. Sales tax and gratuity are added. These prices are lower than what some other tearooms in the Pittsburgh area charge. Reservations are available for individuals and for events such as bridal and baby showers and birthday parties. I made a reservation online for my husband and me. We parked our vehicle in a parking lot behind the building. When we entered the business, the owner Desiree greeted us and seated us at a spacious table that was plated with beautiful cups, plates, and utensils. The tearoom was nicely decorated for Christmas and had garland, a wreath, a tree, toy soldiers, etcetera. A vintage jukebox played music. Wide-brimmed hats were on a rack. There was even a teapot-shaped nightlight in a wall receptacle. The tea menu listed many black teas (e.g., English breakfast, Scottish breakfast, and Vanilla Rose), green teas (e.g., imperial gunpowder and tropical), herbal teas (e.g., chamomile lemon, pomegranate rooibos, and cardamon cinnamon), and oolong tea. Desiree took our order on time, and she soon brought out our teapots and an impressive three-tier tower of the desserts, scones, and sandwiches. I drank the Chai Black Tea, and my husband drank the Ginger-Peach Black Tea. The teapots were a large size, so we never ran out of teas. We poured the teas over strainers over cups. Creamer and sugar cubes were available. Because our visit was during the Christmas season, we enjoyed the Merry Madeleine and Santa Hat Brownie for sweets, various flavors of scones, and Christmas Cucumber, Italian Focaccia, and Chicken-Bacon Crumble for sandwiches. I liked the flavors of all of these foods, and my husband most enjoyed the raspberry brownie and the chicken-bacon sandwich. We really enjoyed this tea experience, and we highly recommend that other people make a reservation here.

I don't know how else to say that Leah Frey and her team is so on top of every little detail. Their space is beautiful, the way they coordinate is amazing, and I didn't regret any component of the full weekend package we paid for. Every one of their amenities, the decoration shed, etc was so convenient. I truly wouldn't consider going anywhere else if I could do it over.

We arrived early, but she was welcoming, friendly and had no trouble getting us started ahead of time. She explained the tea service. We were first presented with a lovely lemonade/lavender drink. Soooo good! Not too sweet. Just perfect! We then were presented with different teas to consider. After descriptions of each tea, including ingredients and caffeine amounts, we had an opportunity to smell each sample to help us make our choice. The 3 of us picked different flavors and tried each others. The next part of the service included the traditional "tea" stand filled with both sweet and savory treats. I will not spoil your surprise and tell you about each item but I will tell you, I have NEVER had such a yummy "tea". Each bite, from tea sandwich to scone was better than the last. We all marveled over how delicious each item was. I cannot pick a favorite! Honestly, everything was absolutely delicious! I understand that there are other meals served there, special nights with 3 to 5 course meals. We will absolutely be back for another visit! Next time, we'll be bringing the husbands!

I spent more time and attention on getting the issue resolved than I did to plan the whole thing. While the venue has potential, the lack of attention to customer concerns and the excuses instead of results left us feeling let down. I hope the management (owner) takes this feedback seriously to improve the experience for future couples.

A special shout out to the coordinator Lori Murphy who made our tour amazing. She was so very friendly, answered all of our questions and was extremely informative during our visit.

There is also no rental fee for use of their facility. The venue is located immediately off of route 8 and has ample parking available. Thanks again Lori for your time. Note: They have another event center at the Holy Trinity location.

All aboard! Next stop....Bloom Brigade, your one-stop-shop for everything floral…read more Bloom Brigade is so much more than your typical florist. They create floral designs for everything from weddings to birthdays to anniversaries to anything you can dream up (big, small, or everyday). They don't have typical business hours, but you can contact them at any time to set up a consultation. I reached out to Bloom Brigade originally for my wedding flowers and they were super helpful in finding a time that worked well for both of us. After meeting with several florists, my fiance and I felt that Bloom Brigade was the right choice for us -- with Carolyn (aka Clang) getting to the details about our event and Suzan imagining the big picture. Closer to my wedding I met with Clang and Suzan again to finalize our flowers -- we were focused on local, in-season, and in our color palette with lots of inspiration of wildflowers. What Bloom Brigade put together for our day of was above and beyond what we could have imagined. Not only did they create an arbor for our outside ceremony, but they also meticulously created beautiful box center pieces, decorated our venue's mantle (The Mayernik Center), the naked coffee cake, and put other finishing touches throughout the venue as needed. I fully recommend Bloom Brigade and encourage you to reach out to them for your next occasion, event, or even every day flowers!

We originally had another wedding venue booked, but when we visited the Mayernik we knew we had to make the switch. We chose a Friday afternoon because we able to save a little bit of money, but also book other locations on the property to make it a full day experience for our guests. The Mayernik has some suggested vendors, but the only requirement is from choosing from one of their 3 food vendors. We tried each over time and settled on Remo's...who created an amazing meal for us. It was high quality and reasonably priced. Our wedding ceremony was at 1230, followed by a brunch reception. For the ceremony we opted for the extra cost of chairs to be set out and I'm glad we did. It was a beautiful day and I would have been uncomfortable forcing everyone to stand during our ceremony. After the reception, we invited a few guests to an after party at The Cabin, one of the smaller locations on the property. Leading up to and throughout the day, Jennifer was attentive and made sure all our details came through without us worrying. She even helped organize and pack things up at the end of the night. I was never worried during the experience and knew she had it handled. If I had to do it again, I'd pick the Mayernik as our choice venue. What a great day to remember!

I recently had my wedding at The Mayernik Center at the Avonworth Community Park. The facility is…read morebeautiful. The wooden interior is very warm and welcoming. I originally worked with the event coordinator Shannon, who was wonderful: very accommodating, available and informative. She notified me that she was leaving her job as event coordinator approximately 2 weeks before my wedding! I was a panicked bride after hearing this...what a nightmare! Shannon made our transition to Suzi, another event coordinator at the Center, extremely smooth. Although Shannon was pleasant to work with, I am so happy to have had Suzi coordinate my event. She is extremely personable, accommodating and flexible. I really felt like she was there for me on my wedding day. She took care of everything, from the last minute decision to move the ceremony inside to fluffing my train before I walked down the isle. She helped us clean up at the end of the night and my family and friends all loved working with her. The Mayernik Center is difficult to reserve, so I would plan to book at least a year ahead, preferably more if you want a Saturday date. I had a Friday wedding and would recommend it if all the Saturdays are taken. We did not have a DJ, but used the Mayernik Center's sound system to play music. It worked perfectly. The only reason I am not giving the Center 5 stars is that they do not have chairs available for outside ceremony's, which makes outside ceremony's very difficult. If you are looking around for an event location in the North Hills check out the Mayernik!

As the mother of the groom, it appears I was left out of some pertinent information and with this being said, I will send my kudos to the event planners at the station, thank you for your smile, support, quick thinking, and hard work! They had my back and didn't even miss a beat! Nor did it matter if it was me, or anyone else on site, they handling things like a well-oiled machine. I can't be more pleased with the turn out and the follow up. Even after the event Leanne took care of me, and that meant the world to me. Not to mention, the place is beautiful, starting with the environment, the nostalgia the place exuded and the mystery the place as a whole held right down to the very near live train going by. Make sure you tell your guests to take a walk down memory lane, and explore the restored historic site, it is just exquisite. Even with the bumps that the guests nearly noticed, we all had a marvelous time. Thank you again!
