The cocktails were genuinely strong (rare for tea service ) the sandwiches had creative twists that kept things interesting without trying too hard.

The staff made the whole afternoon feel easy and welcoming.

The space is a gorgeous venue right near the BPL courtyard. After the tea, we went and took photos in the courtyard, which was quite fun! Our servers were very prompt and helpful. There's a wide range of tea options, including matcha and chai. I don't know if they always allow this, but our servers let us switch teas throughout the service so we could try multiple. We took advantage of this and got to try two pots of tea each. The tower was also delightful, with scones, a selection of finger sandwiches, and an array of sweets. We went to our tea at 10am, so we actually were stuffed and had to take several of our desserts to go. At $72 per person, I feel that this is a pretty good price for a very nice tea, especially with the loveliness of the venue and the excellent service. I would definitely try to make a reservation several weeks in advance!

Yesterday I went to an absolutely delightful vegan high tea service at the Boston Public Library…read morewith a friend for my birthday. The space is bright and beautiful and as a vegan I was so excited that they have an entire vegan menu. I was definitely impressed, especially with the savory bites which were flavorful and well thought out. And of course you are surrounded by the gorgeous library, the perfect setting for a high tea. They even stored the sugar cubes for the tea in a fake book, so cute! Along with a pot of rooibos tea (perfect), I enjoyed this tower of vegan goodies: Amuse bouche: carrot cornet with whipped vegan goat cheese marscapone and parsley dust Savory: Truffle mushroom tart with truffle-infused cashew cream and roasted mushrooms (my favorite bite!) Cucumber sandwich with vegan dill cream cheese and affilla cress (another fave) Hummus with cucumber and tomato relish, za'atar vinaigrette, pita Roasted eggplant with roasted red peppers, arugula, pepita-arugula pesto Herbed tofu with red pepper romesco, smoked vegan provolone, and affilla cress Avocado toast with roasted tomato, everything bagel seasoning, sourdough Sweet: Lemon ginger scone with lemon curd (obsessed!) and mixed berry jam Layered strawberry shortcake (my fave of the sweet options) Belgian chocolate cake Tiramisu Pistachio and berry petit gateau Nat's berry cake I took most of the sweets to go and enjoyed them with another cup of tea this morning. I think several of them were raw vegan sweets from Nat's raw cakes which I enjoy but are less special the something made in-house (I believe the only vegan sweets made on the premises are the scones). While I do wish they had nicer dishware and teapots to complement the high tea experience, that would be a minor aesthetic improvement. Our server was friendly and buoyant and we had a great time. I highly recommend the tearoom for a special occasion!

The tea room itself is adorable inside, think charming mismatched plates, cups, and glasses that make the whole experience feel extra cozy. And a huge shoutout to Teagan, who gave us incredible service! She was so friendly, accommodating, and fun. Highly recommend!

I had a dietary restriction (gluten free) and we let them know a week in advanced. I tried calling them 4 days in advanced to make sure, no answer. Emailed 2 days just in case and there was also no answer. That was a bit disappointing. When ordering, they did not have prepared GF items and I had to change picked foods. Even with a week in advanced, little sad. The servers didn't know much about celiac and wanted to put everything on one plate, but I let them know we couldn't. The savory items were good and the sweets were alright, menu did not match online menu. Which is okay! Besides those issues, we really did have a fun time. You can never go wrong with tea and a friend! I would come back again in the spring and call again further than a week in advance or try a different location!

The tea selection was great with a variety of green, white, black, and non caffeinated teas--I went with the tropical green tea. The overall environment was a bit dark and cluttery, there were lots of items (teas, pots, cards, etc.) displayed near the dining area. There were a total of four tables (one large one and three small ones). I felt the placement of the tables seemed a bit tight, it was impossible to not hear other people's conversations, and I felt like I had to talk very softly with my friend to not disrupt anyone else. It seemed like this place also doubled as a tea store too. The food was decent. The sandwiches seemed fresh, but my favorites were probably the scones with the jam and homemade cream. I am a huge sweets person and was a bit disappointed with the desserts, some of it looked like they were picked up from a grocery store bakery. I sort of wished this place partnered with a local bakery for their dessert selections.

Went for mothers day…read more Tea: 2/6 people liked their tea. Mine reminded me of soap. It was something lavender. The berry one was a favorite, the green tea pomegranate was a full miss. Food (savory course): I told the server I was vegetarian. She told me that they would bring out extra vegetarian sandwiches, which they did not do. I was stuck there eating bread with a sliver of cucumber (too thin for a crunch) a thin swipe of cream cheese, and one to two flattened micro green sprouts in there. I was hungry and the other sandwiches looked great. Dessert 1 (scone course): Didnt recognize it. they gave us a dry lemon scone with a heck of a lot of icing on top. No cream, no butter, one factory processed jar of strawberry jam. Nothing to ease into the desserts. Dessert 2 (sweet course): All horribly sweet. Madeline was dry and had a hunk of chocolate or something on top. Not at all what I expect a Madeline to be (oven-fresh) and again too sweet. Petit fours: they somehow did this one well. Cream puff: winner. elderflower in this was excellent and it was light fluffy and fresh. Chocolate lumps: no one ate this. Macarons: too sweet. Almond one everyone but my dad hated. The purple one we thought was overly sweet without much flavor but was better than the almond. Chocolate ball with raspberry: intense flavor, pretty good, not sure what was up with the sprinkles. Honestly this is the second time I've been unimpressed, and after the staff fully disconnecting with the kitchen/customer I dont think I'll be back.
