Traditional full tea

Living in Allentown we had high hopes that Tilly's Mint Tea Room would satisfy our high tea appetite. While we are not aficionados by any stretch we have had the authentic experience in London some years back and several tea rooms stateside. Good news everyone! Service is super friendly and the ambiance is subdued and appealing. The food was delicious. As a starter we had a choice of blueberry soup chilled or an open face ricotta and fire roasted corn sandwich accompanied by fresh mixed greens and apple salad. The savory tier features various finger sandwiches of tuna, cream cheese and cucumber. The scones were delightful especially with homemade lemon curd. The top tier included Princess Diana crème brûlée, peanut butter mousse, macaroons and shark week themed mini cupcakes.

Figgy Pudding Green tea in festive holiday tea cup.

I know I've said this before but this is my new favorite tea room! I have been trying to visit this tea room for quite some time. The challenge is that it books up fast so you definitely need a reservation. Expect to reserve about two weeks prior to your visit. The tea room is small but was festively decorated for the Christmas season including holiday serving plates and cups. I loved everything about my tea experience...from the personalized note at my table to the tasty bites served with my tea. Since it was the holiday season, I chose to have one of the special holiday teas...Figgy Pudding Green tea. The name really does not do the tea justice. It was similar to an Earl Grey in flavor and went really well with the full tea sampler. In addition to the tea specials, Tilly Mint has a huge tea list. Something for every type of tea drinker...including children. I chose to do the full tea which included your choice of soup or quiche and the tiered tea sandwich sampler. This was $25 and did include a pot of tea. I ended up having a second pot of tea which did not cost me extra :). You can see the attention to detail when you view the tiered sampler...from the lady bug tea sandwich, to the mini tea cup condiment holders, to the mousse ice cream cone dessert...all is designed to be visually appealing to the customer and fun. The service was prompt with friendly, courteous servers. I would recommend this tea room to anyone who loves a proper British tea. (Side note: Thank you Tilly Mint for not leaving the tea leaves in the pot of tea. Leaving the leaves makes for a bitter cup of tea. Others should follow you fine example!)

Best tea room I have been to! Staff is super friendly and the atmosphere is open with cute decor. Food quality is excellent- everything was delicious. They have so many teas to choose from it's so hard to pick! I recommend making reservations a month or more in advance because they fill up quick. After tea make sure to check out the local shops within walking distance on Main Street.

The Merseyside - Our Light Tea

this place is sooo cute! the staff was super kind and personable. the tea was delicious, and they had quite a large list of teas to choose from. the food was great and presented really prettily. i came for a birthday celebration, and i was given a cute special plate and napkin. they were also really accommodating for dietary restrictions!

Black currant tea

What a unique and fun experience! I had no idea what to expect when going here nor did I have any clue that tea rooms are a thing. Note to self: tea rooms are totally a thing. When I first walked in the door all I could do was look around the room and think how adorable and quaint it was... I felt like I had just walked into a place in England. It was super cozy and made you feel right at home. The staff was wonderful and friendly through our whole visit. We had a nice table right by the window and there were 6 of us total - 5 adults and one toddler. I mentioned to our server that I had never been to anything like this before and she was happy to explain how it all worked. Oh man and then I had to select a tea?? They had no less than like 80 billion teas and they all sounded amazing! How are you supposed to pick?? I ended up getting the black currant which was very good. Everyone else in the party enjoyed their teas, even the baby! I ended up getting the Liverpool which was the soup, salad, and savory (which was a quiche today). The baby had the kid's meal which uhhhh looked amazing, I wanted her sundae! Everyone else got the full tea. Trying to be good with my diet so that's why I stayed away from the sammiches and sweets. Ok back to my Liverpool. The soup was cream of mushroom and it was freaking delicious! It was perfect to warm me up on this suddenly cold day! The salad was fresh and dressed nicely with accents of fruit throughout. I forget what the quiche was exactly but it was a great complement to the soup and salad. I'm glad I went with the smaller meal because I was stuffed with just that! Everyone else also enjoyed their soups/salads/quiches and then the main course came out and it was so beautiful! Everything sounded delicious and trust me, I was kicking myself for not gorging and getting one as well. But I did steal a little piece of one of the chicken salad sammiches and that was super yummy. Everyone else was extremely stuffed and didn't finish the goodies so I guess I was the smart one going light :) The bathroom, or loo rather, was adorable as well and so was the shop! We had fun checking out all the various teapots for sale. It was a lovely day with family and friends trying something new for me. We were celebrating some birthdays, so they gave them some tea to take home as a gift... that was very nice! Such a nice time!

Kids plate including dessert and lemonade
Brianna M.

If you want to go to a very nice and very tasty British Tea House; then this is your place. We enjoyed a early Mother's Day tea with the family. The kids had their own little cups with pink lemonade which they loved! We tried 4 different teas: the almond tea, the cream brûlée tea, the Queen Elisabeth tea, and the Royal Wedding tea. The Scones are so sweet and fresh, We bought some to take home. Everything was delicious! The wait staff was very friendly. The only thing is since the place is small I would recommend a reservation. I would love to go back again. The teapots are so cute. The decor is perfect for a Britain themed tea house. I would give it more stars then 5. This is an experience you will not forget. Great for a birthday or special occasion!

High The Wavertree - Our Full Tea
A B.

My family and I have been here a few times and it never disappoints. It's classic high tea and the flavor choices of tea are immense.

Had an excellent time here with twin grand littles. They were delighted with their "kids" high tea that was chockablock full of inventive delicious food. Staff was friendly and warm. Everything you could want in a tea room. Grown up food was excellent-- a vegetable quiche with a potato crust and salad plus the standard tea fare of scones, sandwiches, sweets and cream. Tea selection amazing. A great experience!

The Wavertree - Our Full Tea I forgot to take a picture of the salad and soup before this came out

Came back again for our anniversary, delicious as usual but for some reason felt really cramped. We were right next to a table of 3 and we could hear everything they were saying. Again, wouldn't deter us from coming back again. Jenny was our server both times, she is very friendly and knowledgeable.

A smooth & delicious butternut squash soup.  Cranberry salad & quiche.
Eagle S.

Always friendly with top-notch service, teas, and presentation. We've been coming here for years and it never disappoints! It's always a pleasure take time out of your busy schedules to enjoy tea. Come enjoy this little hidden jewel in Souderton. You'll be glad you did.

They also brought more gluten/dairy free dessert for her as well. We drove almost 2 hours and I would not be against doing it again. They have a nice lovely shot that you can mill around in parking is easy. Everybody was absolutely pleasant as can be and the food presentation was as lovely looking as it was eating

There was Irish and Celtic music playing in the background the servers Linsey and. Madison were attentive and extremely personable. My friend and I picked out our two teas to share. Both were delicious. We had pistachio and Irish bread scones. We had a mouthwatering potato and cabbage soup. Our third course was a variety of delicious tea sandwiches, one of which was a corned beef cabbage sandwich. The corned beef was soaked in a tea. There was an egg salad sandwich, cucumber, and herbs, pretzel, and cheese. We learned this from the owner Patty, who is extremely passionate and committed to serving delicious food that complements the tease and the theme. Our desserts were a pistachio Bundt cake with a cream in the middle, a chocolate shamrock cookie and some kind of a mini yummy other dessert. I've been to this tea house many times and it never disappoints. Highly recommend five stars. Renee Atkins.

It is the perfect spot for my family to take a step back from the stresses of everyday rushed life and to transcend into the tranquility of a more noble and elegant time period. The Victorian house is beautifully adorned with dainty tea sets and table settings where I imagine Victorian women in corset dresses once sat and sipped tea, brimming with gossip. I have no idea if they ever did but the setting is perfect for this.... We came here for tea and scones and we loved everything about it. We ordered 2 teapots for the 4 of us. The tea is made with loose leaves and are very fragrant. The "Buckingham Palace", made with earl grey and hints of jasmine was my favorite. It is fragrant and the tea flavor really comes through. The "Cranberry Apples" is made with roseships and hibiscus petals. The cranberry flavor dominates, giving it a fruity, tangy flavor. The scones...deliciously soft and moist inside with the perfect crisp brown crunch on top, is exactly how I love my scones...and with lemon curd and clotted cream! Lizzie gave us an interesting history chat on the house and the 2 surrounding houses. I loved learning about the house and the story behind some of the pieces. The teapots, tea cups, paintings displayed throughout the house are all for sale. We ended up buying several teapots and teacups! There is also afternoon tea available if you reserve 24 hours in advance. If you're in the area on a Friday or Saturday afternoon, check it out!

We just celebrated our anniversary at The Snarky Tea House. (While I won't say how many years we've…read morebeen married, our anniversary happens to coincide with their 1-year anniversary.) Our afternoon tea was simply fantastic. It began with a genuine and welcoming arrival. The sandwiches were both inventive and delicious. Two different varieties of scones, which were a little dry, but that is the nature of scones; it just provides an excuse for more jam and lemon curd and clotted cream. The assortment of sweets was also exceptional. There was a PB&J macaroni, a cherry cheesecake kind of thing and a s'mores tartlet that was just epic. Perhaps the most interesting part of our adventure was the selection of teas. Even better is that you're not locked into a single choice. I had a tropical green tea with flavors of mango, papaya and pineapple. Then I tried the caramel chai. Both were fantastic, and I'm typically of the Ted Lasso perspective (tea is just hot brown water). We we definitely be returning. Alas, since it's an hour drive each way, it will only be a special occasion spot.

Sandwiches were excellent and filling, scones were…read moredelicious and came with seemingly pretty authentic(?) clotted cream (thicker than most other places anyway) and jam. Black sesame pomegranate scone was especially good and a very unusual flavor, haven't seen either flavor in a scone before. The highlight of the dessert tray was the chocolate horchata cake, I liked it much more than I thought I would. The macarons seemed under baked as the middles were squishy and looked a bit gooey. They have a lot of choices for tea which you're allowed to swap out at any time. Each person gets their own pot which is nice. None of the teas were up my alley but I'm a pretty picky tea drinker. For most people their tea selection will likely be totally fine. Wait staff was very nice and accommodating and regularly came to check up if we wanted more/different teas, and explained how long to let it steep (they give you a little tea timer)

The savory course was absolutely sublime! Five beautiful little creations, and not a boring sandwich among them! Every single one tasted as though someone had actually "thought" about it -- the flavors, the textures, the bread, the balance! Nothing felt like filler. We kept looking at each other after every bite saying, "Okay... THIS one might be my favorite." Then came the scones and petite madeleines with cream and lemon curd, followed by an assortment of gorgeous French desserts and pastries. The pastries were incredibly fresh and just perfection -- delicate, beautiful, and actually as delicious as they looked. And the ***macarons*** Oh, the **macarons** **PERFECTION** Crisp little shells, soft centers, wonderful flavor -- exactly what a macaron is supposed to be. If you're going to call yourself Mademoiselle Macaron, the macarons had better deliver. They absolutely did. What made the experience so special was that the food wasn't simply pretty. Afternoon tea can sometimes be more about presentation than flavor. Not here. Everything tasted fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and genuinely delicious. We've had a lot of afternoon teas over the years, including some very fancy ones. **Mademoiselle Macaron has officially moved into our #1 spot** Beautiful, delicious, charming, and just a little bit magical.
