The gift shop was nice with many different items to look at for tea. I loved the tea lamp they had for sale.

The dining area seemed a little dark for my liking but from what I could see everyone was enjoying their time in the room. Next time we are here, we will need to try the tea.

The house was packed on a Tuesday afternoon. We did reservations and so glad we did as they were not taking walk-ins on the day we dined. The employees were very courteous and kind. The menu is great and so much to choose from. But of course we chose the high tea meal. It comes with 4 sandwiches lemon bread and scones and to finish strawberries. All the food was of good quality and tasted very good. Cucumbers and tomatoes could have been cut thinner on the sandwiches, but the taste was really good. They have a few things for sale, but it is not a small gift shop. The few tea rooms that I have gone to did have a souvenir shop to buy tea, bakery items or small tea pots or cups. But I think their focus is on the tea room and food. Their tea is placed in tea pots that are beautiful and they place it on warmer to keep it warm. With many variations of teas and also other option other than tea to choose from. It was just a great place to enjoy the day and some tea.

Miss Hickory's Tea Room is a quaint tea house right next to the scenic Mill Stream Run Reservation…read more There's a softness to the place with its charming teapots and tea cups, pastel color scheme, and themed tea rooms. I had the loveliest afternoon tea with my mom at Miss Hickory's. AMBIANCE: You'll step back into the 1900's with time-specific decor and waitresses' attire. Miss Hickory's occupies a mid-1800s farmhouse that was owned by the first blacksmith in Strongsville, William Weller. The current owners preserved the historic charm, transformed the farm house into multi-room tea house. There are two main dining areas on the first floor, and multiple gorgeous themed tea rooms upstairs (like the Gathering Room and Storybook Tea Room). The interior contains a lot of refurbished and vintage furniture, charming housewares, and decor. Think pastels, florals, and lace. The space comfortably accommodates big groups and pairs. Small parking lot is available onsite, consider car pulling if attending with a large group. RESERVATIONS: I personally despise the commitment of reservations, but the process here is very easy. I emailed the tea house, received same day email response, and was not charged to hold the reservation. The tea room space started filling very quickly at open, so it's best to reserve your space. FOOD/TEA: Multi-page menu will accommodate all types of tastes. Find another seasonal menu at your table with all the flavors of the season. The menu contains signature plates, sandwiches, soups, sides, sweets, desserts, and beverages. You can have anything from a full tea feast to no tea at all equally enjoying your time. If you're a tea connoisseur, read all tea descriptions at the end of the menu. We ordered Miss Hickory's High Tea Sampler ($23 per person) that contains a shareable 3-tier serving tray with finger sandwiches, wonton cups, strawberries, scones, sweets, and crème. While I have seen larger portions at other tea houses, the food amount was very filling. Everything was extremely fresh, much fresher than experienced at other tea houses. I most enjoyed the walnut scones, they were so delicious! The standalone menu items seemed expensive and were served in very small quantities based on our observation of other guests. I don't think that ordering standalone items offers value. My mom thought that the experience was pricey, while I think it's about at market price. Since the tea is not included in the sampler, we ordered and shared two tea pots - Loose Leaf Arctic Berry and Black Currant ($4 per teapot with refills but no sharing). They were served with a tea warmer which was incredible, I love me some hot tea! The flavors started out very mild then evolved during our experience due to longer steeping. We agreed that Arctic Berry was our favorite tea. If you're not into loose leaf teas, you'll discover a very long Twinings selection. EXPERIENCE FOR KIDS: Many guests arrived with kids who were very enthusiastic about tea parties. They wore adorable matching outfits. Kids received their own tea experience - tiny tea cups and teapot. It was really cute! The room upstairs (Storybook Tea Room) seems to well accommodate anyone with children, has fairytales book, and play tea set. I can envision an adorable children's tea party in this space. SERVICE: The service is extremely attentive. Five stars! Our waitress was so kind, efficient, and just generally pleasant. She presented us with a demo of additional desserts for purchase at the end of the dining experience. One of them was Bridgerton-inspired Mille-feuille! We didn't have any more room for desserts, but they looked really elaborate! The owner inquired how our experience was at the end of our afternoon tea as well which felt especially welcoming. SHOP: The tea house has a small shopping area by the entrance. The cutest things are tea cup cards with tea bags! We loved our calm and delicious afternoon tea. We plan to return during nature's more scenic seasons like winter or the vibrant time of fall. I think that the views by the tea house will be unmatched. I have to say that it's one of my best tea house experiences.

Service was fast with one server running the dining area. We shared the Pad Thai with chicken as our main meal, and it was delicious. The portion was generous and full of flavor. We asked for the chopped peanuts on the side as my son does not like them, but I do.. To start, we each ordered the wonton soup; mine with shrimp and my son's with chicken. Honestly, it was the best wonton soup I've ever had. The broth was incredibly fresh and flavorful, and I loved the fresh carrots and chopped bok choy. Every bite tasted homemade and high quality. I would go back just for the soup alone! My son was excited to see banana bubble tea on the menu since that's one of his favorites. He ordered it expecting a traditional bubble tea, but it came out more like a milkshake. We later learned that's how they serve it unless you specifically request otherwise. It was a little disappointing since it wasn't what he was expecting, but now we know for next time. Overall, the food was excellent, especially the wonton soup. We'll definitely be back!

So if they can add price stickers and shelf labels that be solved. Not everything is marked. On Sundays there is no wine drinking and no wine selling so you have to do that the rest of the week.

The bobas were available in dozens of dairy and non-dairy flavors, and they were customizable with a base of either green tea or soda water, dozens of flavors of bubbles, and options for ice and other add-ons. My husband chose flavors of passion fruit and mango, and I chose a flavor of peach. Each boba cost several dollars. Several minutes later, an employee handed over our bobas. My husband and I enjoyed the taste of the bobas.

Flavor was good, a good experience to eat. Drinks were really good and tasted great. It's worth a visit if you enjoy sushi or some street food type dining.

The cafe is larger than expected. Spans far back where they have a tv set up, carom board game, and an area with a number of board games you can play while you dine. They have a large variety of drinks ranging from chai, lattes, boba, spritzers, mocktails, and plenty of desserts. The staff didn't seem too informed about the menu items or drinks, which was a bit disappointing. I relied on some online reviews to decide on my order. The saffron karak chai was very good and comes out piping hot. I would prefer if they served this in an actual mug (rather than paper cup) especially if dining in. It was filled to the brim and spilled, not to mention putting a steaming hot drink in a paper cup. Nonetheless, the chair was good. More folks eventually started to come in so I can imagine this place gets noisy as it fills up. There was a women's group meeting all sitting in a circle on the floor in the front of the cafe. Perhaps they host group events? Not sure if there were any vegan options or egg free desserts, but check out the chai.
