Tea for two
Diana C.

I had a really good experience here with my friend and colleague. They have a cool app system where you can order to your table and split the check by person who ordered. The teas we got were both delicious and they were really good about accommodating my dietary restrictions. They could definitely accommodate pescatarian and perhaps also vegetarians but definitely not vegan or gluten free for the afternoon teas. We also got some huge slices of delicious crepe cake. The vibes in here were a combo of cute and refined. Would definitely come back!

Green Matcha Milk tea

Tea is lukewarm, never gets nice and hot. The appetizers and small snack were fine. The ube sides are pretty delicious including the authentic NY cheesecake. Aside from that it's more ambiance than tea house.

Rose Milk Tea and Lavender Milk Tea
Komal R.

Always a pleasure to have their desserts and drinks but yesterday was different. We got their Fruit toast, Rose lover's milk tea and Creme Brûlée sampler. The Fruit toast is unlike the ones I have had before, too dry and not buttery enough. They should try adding a semi liquid filling of some sort instead of just filling it with fruits making it super dry to swallow down. The Rose lover's milk tea did not have any hint of rose in it unlike the Potted rose green/black milk tea, so I would stick to the latter for next time. The Creme Brûlée sampler was really good especially the Matcha and Black Sesame flavors. The Cranberry stuck out as a sore thumb so instead there should be an Asian flavor like Ube or Pandan. Just my 2 cents!

Assorted finger sandwiches which are part of the tea
Melissa R.

We wanted to have a relaxing experience before heading over to the Philadelphia Flower Show, and the Prince Tea House fit the bill. Keep in mind they do not take reservations which we knew. The restaurant has a sophisticated vibe, but there are no menus. We were told to scan the code and then place our order online. At one point, we had to flag a server to make sure our order went through. The problem with ordering this way is if you have any questions as we did about the types of tea, you have to do your own research. In hindsight, I would have ordered a different tea if I had had an opportunity to ask questions. We ordered the tea for 2 and 3 for our party of five. The afternoon tea came with a 3-tiered tray full of assorted finger sandwiches, a scone for each person along with clotted cream and jam, and various mini pastries that included macaroons. Everything was delicious, and the price was reasonable. We also all opted for different types of tea. The matcha green tea was especially creamy and delicious. We had a lovely experience and were glad we opted to make this our first stop before heading to the flower show.

Lavender green milk tea

When you need a fancy tea time with friends, Prince Tea House is THE place to be. I came here with a group of girlfriends for our galentine's day yesterday, and it was nothing short of spectacular. I really really love that Prince Tea House offers the afternoon tea sets for 2 as well as for 3 people, as it fits perfectly well with our group of 5. We all opted for different types of tea and we loved all the selections (Lavender green milk tea, citrus jasmine tea, passionfruit tea, matcha green tea, and citrus Russian blend). When the teas came out, the porcelain tea sets were cute and dainty, which went awesomely with the faux-lux setting of the place. The three-tier snack trays that served our mini-sandwiches and scones were also oh-so adorable with the cutesy cutleries and spoons to complement with the set. The whole experience gave us a quick nostalgic throw-back to when we were kids playing tea time, albeit with a huge upgrade of us now being adults doing the real thing. As for food quality, we all loved our scones and all the snacks were delicious. I really can't recommend this place enough and I really look forward to visiting it again.

This is such a cute place! It has good lighting. The vibe is a little bit fancy but comfortable. It's a fun place to have a get together with your girlfriends or for a date night. I was here for a shower with about 10 people. We had the tea it came with several different savories. I really liked the deviled egg. The scone was yummy with butter and jelly. The sweets included a Matcha cake, a mini fruit tart, and a macaroon. The portions were a little small. We also had the curly fries and fried shrimp skewers. The shrimp was delicious. It also came with four different kinds of tea. The rose milk. Tea was good. The macho was tasty. A green tea was also good. My favorite was the mango tea. It had a good mango flavor. The cake was gorgeous. It had cute marzipan teddy bears on it. It was a mango crêpe layer cake. It had a lot of mango flavor. It was light and airy. The cake was delicious. I really enjoyed the tea and the atmosphere!

I've been here once before, and it was completely fine. But today was truly something. - My friend and I ordered the iced jasmine green tea thinking it would be in a tea pot, since it said that on the menu. However, the tea still came out in a mason jar instead. When we asked, and I also showed what the menu said, the waitstaff said that it just wasn't able to be served in a tea pot. Just confused why it would say the opposite on the menu then? - We also ordered the chicken katsu sandwich; the first half was fine, but when I got to the end of the second half, I noticed the pinkness in the meat. When I asked about it, I was told the sandwich was fine because it was "fried"??? I'm going to hope they meant that they used precooked chicken because what? Had me questioning if the chicken was truly too pink or not. I did have pictures attached to this review, but I'm not sure if they actually went through or not.

afternoon tea tower
Jenny T.

My friends and I came here for an afternoon treat. We were seated upon arrival even though they were pretty busy with some party reservations. Food/Drinks: We ordered the afternoon tea tower with hot matcha tea and hot milk tea. In addition, we ordered curly fries, strawberry parfait, and an iced potted green tea. This was between the 3 of us and it was plenty of food. The scones were delicious. The savory bites were also good. I wish there was an option to have all the savory items be vegetarian. The desserts were varied and good. The curly fries were pretty standard. The teas were excellent. As the name sake, the teas were my favorite part of the experience. Service: Service was friendly and quick. Our items arrived promptly as they were ready from the kitchen. TL;DR - A great tea house with good savory and sweet options

LOVED! LOVED! LOVED! It is so beautiful inside (I'm mad I didn't get a lot of pictures). It is so adorable inside, everyone is so nice and sweet. The young lady I was speaking to when making the reservation, Rachel, was so patient with me because I was working with a group for a bachelorette party. We ordered: ~ TEA: Jardin Tropical, Montagne Blue Black and Des Sable Green - DELICIOUS, every single tea was so good! ~ APPETIZERS: Shrimp Lollipops and Sante Fe Chicken Eggrolls - The shrimp was so good and hot (all the food came out hot), and the Eggrolls were just as delicious. ~ SALAD: Crabmeat - GREAT! And the ginger dressing that came with jr was a perfect blend. ~ SANDWICHES: Katsu Chicken and Turkey - They served us whole sandwiches to share with one another so each of us were able to try both sandwiches. ~ DESSERT: Purple Yam Cake, Molten Lava Cake and Apple Crumble - That apple crumble was soooooo good and warm, the molten lava cake was so smooth and it tasted like dark chocolate with I love, and the purple yam cake was very pretty and delicious. I highly recommend this place for a cute girls day out or little girl tea party.

We got the fruit crepe cake, lavender milk tea, and jasmine milk tea. Food was great, service was great, the environment was clean and wasn't loud at all! It is located at the edge of chinatown which is less busy with a bit more parking spaces. Highly recommended!

Heather M.

AMAZING! Truly phenomenal experience here! It's located in a small beautiful part of the city, a short walk from center city! The decor is simple, chic and truly adds ambiance! The music selection during my visit was fitting and made me not want to leave. I got the Rose Milk Tea, the pot lasted my whole visit. My friend got the wings and said they were really good. She chose not to use the buffalo sauce but did enjoy her meal! It's self-service, contactless scanning the bar code and ordering. It was such an easy process and the service was still remarkable with checking in, delivery and all things.

I have a party of 4 trying out their Afternoon tea for two for $55. Each person gets to choose their own refillable pot of fruit tea or milk tea. So we ordered 2 Afternoon tea for two. We tried jasmine green tea, toffee milk tea, earl grey milk tea, and rose milk tea. Out of the 4 types, rose milk tea tastes the best in my opinion. The jasmine green tea has the lightest taste. Earl grey just tastes like regular milk tea you get at other places. Toffee milk tea is either you like it or it's ughh to you. Everything else was just ok to me. The scone was probably the best out of all the other selections. But that scone was bigger than we expected, which is why I felt full after that. It's a nice experience and a good time to chat with my other moms. I think I might prefer to come back for their dessert more than their afternoon tea. Overall, service was pretty good.

Nice interior and beautiful furniture! Menu is on QR code as most of places do these days, and you can also put in order right away from the menu in the app, which was nice, time saving, i think they are ahead of other places on that one. We ordered green jasmin milk tea and greentea matcha millecrepe, tea was decent with addition of 2-3 spoon of sugar and crepe was hmm.. could be more flavorful/strong flavor My friend disliked it, i liked it but needed more flavor Tea pot was on warmer keep it warm but milk tea in cup was cooling off pretty fast Cup itself was pretty but then it would be nice if the cup could be on warmer too or insulated cup to keep the tea hot longer

What is parking like in the area, any lots nearby or at the store?

Street parking is tight. Lot not super close by but maybe about a 10 min walk away.

Would this be a good place to read a book or study notes?

I actually think you could! While I was in another costumer was plugged in and working on things on her computer. It's a pretty serene spot. Light background music. The staff is very attentive, so you could get interrupted. You'd have to just device… Read more

$ well spent! Had a dozen hot, fresh, wonderful cookies delivered to our hotel room on a Monday…read morenight after midnight when nearly every other option, including the hotel bar & restaurant, was closed. A few additional cookies tossed in our delivery for free, made it feel like a better value since we had some leftover to enjoy with morning coffee. Anticipated a long wait given the time & day, but a friendly face handed them to us in less time than Domino's. The Deluxe cookies were a treat w/ the peanut butter varieties a fav, but ALL the cookies, including the ones I didn't pick, were delicious. A little annoying the upcharges for deluxe varieties when I thought that was the point of picking an option that includes them, but the additional free cookies helped soften that. A must for any overnight stay in Philly!

After we finished, they handed us a whole box of cookies just for hanging out and giving feedback. That was a solid surprise and super generous. I swing by Insomnia Cookies on random days too because sometimes you just need a warm cookie to reset your mood. They always come out soft, gooey, and fresh from the oven. The store itself is clean and kind of cool to look at. There's a whole wall covered in giant industrial-style on and off switches. I still wish I could have pulled one just to see what would happen. Staff was chill and genuinely helpful. They were patient while we tried to figure out which cookie was which during the ranking, and they kept the energy light and fun. Same when they handed out the free boxes. Whoever runs the HQ location clearly knows how to make the experience feel special.

We ordered the crispy cheese curds (Wisconsin cheddar, smoked guajillo salsa, and charred scallion ranch). These were a unique take on the classic and I was here for it, definitely try these! I then had the wedge salad (blue cheese, nueske's bacon, cherry tomatoes, radish, pepitas, crispy onions, and thai basil goddess). There were no tomatoes on ours, and so we were given sliced avocado instead. This was an interesting attempt but not my favorite take on this dish, I probably would not get this again. However, the shrimp po boy buns came through to round off this meal! (crispy shrimp, smoky aioli, house made choppy chop, dill on two buttered potato rolls.) These were fantastic and absolutely fire. NOTE they are tiny, almost appetizer sized, which didnt bother me because after the salad and cheese curds I was feeling full already but I would go back and get two orders just for myself they were that good. All in all a great place, I recommend!
