    What a beautiful afternoon for High Tea . When you first walk in you feel like you stepped back…read morein time with the historic bed and breakfast retreat. There was a lovely piano player to set the mood and the room was filled with gorgeous antiques. The upstair gift shop was a glorious selection of tea and trinkets to take home. The tea service was fantastic accompanied by soup , salad , sandwiches and delicious pastries . Definitely a hidden gem in the heart of Tom's River NJ. Mathis House thank you for your hospitality

    We attended the murder mystery dinner and had a pleasant evening overall, but there were several…read moreaspects that kept it from meeting our expectations. The highlights were definitely the food and tea. Everything was delicious, and I appreciated that my dietary restrictions were accommodated without any issues. There was also ample parking, and our server was pleasant. Unfortunately, the biggest disappointment was the murder mystery itself. We've attended several murder mystery dinners over the years, and this was the least engaging cast we've experienced. The acting lacked the energy and immersion we were expecting, especially considering the cost of the event. Since the performance is the main attraction, we had hoped for a much stronger production. While our server was kind, the service could have been more attentive. We had to ask for water refills and for our tea to be replenished with hot water. Those are small touches that guests should be offered rather than having to request, especially during a tea service. I was also disappointed that wine was only available by the bottle instead of by the glass. Lastly, my companion and I spent a great deal of time creating our costumes for the event. We stepped away briefly to explore one of the beautifully decorated rooms, and during that time the costume contest was held. We either didn't hear or weren't given a clear announcement before it began, so we completely missed the opportunity to participate. Better communication would have made a big difference. Overall, the venue, food, and tea were excellent, but the quality of the performance and some aspects of the service and event organization left us disappointed. With improvements in those areas, this could be a truly memorable experience.
