I took my daughter (4) and my mom to tea for their birthday and it was such a wonderful and cozy authentic afternoon tea. We were given several amazing teas and the food was delightful and delicious. A lot of time and thoughtful preparation was put into every aspect of tea. The house adds charm to the experience. My daughter was given a special, fun plate of kid friendly treats and sandwiches. She also was given her own tea pot of apple juice when she had her fill of hot tea. I would highly recommend visiting the Coral Tree Tea House for a fun, authentic, relaxing and sweet experience. The staff was also so kind and caring and even sang their own rendition of "happy birthday". The experience was exceptional from start to finish. We will be back!
I recently took my girlfriends, who were visiting from out of town, for a delightful Afternoon Tea experience. We truly savored our time together in this charming establishment, an ideal setting for a ladies' day out. As we settled into our cozy table, we were enveloped by a warm ambiance that encouraged conversation and laughter. The selection of teas was impressive, offering a delightful array of flavors, each served alongside an exquisite assortment of pastries and finger sandwiches, beautifully presented on tiered stands. Nestled within the picturesque historic district of Old Town, the venue's quaint surroundings added to the overall charm, making our afternoon enjoyable and memorable as we indulged in conversation and culinary treats.
Tucked away in a serene park near Old Town, Coral Tree Tea House is a picturesque gem that exudes charm from the moment you step in. Parking spots are ample, making it a breeze to access. We had the Queens HighTea, a 1-hour-30-minute experience that was nothing short of exquisite. From the apple salad to the diverse assortment of Tea and Savory Sandwiches, along with the homemade pastries and petite desserts— we enjoyed every bite. They are committed to accommodating dietary restrictions without compromising on taste or quality. They take their tea, food, and service seriously, evident in the experience we had. We enjoyed insightful conversations with the ladies about the history, business, and inspirations behind their concept and products. Do note, reservations are a must via phone call only.
I absolutely loved this tea house. One of the best ones I've been to. The ladies who run it are simply delightful. I enjoyed the stories they shared. They allowed us to bring our dogs and sit on the front porch and it was a beautiful, peaceful view. The scones were my favorite. I never would've chosen a chocolate coconut tea off a menu, so it's smart to make that the house tea. It was surprisingly delicious. I also ordered Lucy's and my mom chose Creme Brulee, both were great.
Located in beautiful Heritage Park, a charming historic area in Old Town, you will find this gem of a tea house. I’ve been to pretty impressive afternoon teas while living in Japan, so I was a little reluctant but I’m glad I was proved wrong. The ladies who manage this establishment take pride in serving you and make everything homemade in their vintage kitchen- from the fresh cream to the scones, to the warm spanakopita and tea sandwiches. Savory and sweet tea pastries, with your choice of two different teas, makes for a wonderful time with friends. It was fun to dress up and really absorb the experience. I highly recommend! A few things to note and be aware of: They change their menu monthly (I believe), they have ample parking, you must make a reservation and leave a deposit, the space inside of the tea house is extremely small and tight. You will be very close to the guests next to you. There was a large party when we visited and the room was filled with laughter and conversation throughout our dining experience. Dress up and plan for some extra time to walk the grounds- the homes are fascinating and charmingly picturesque.

A charming retreat for authentic afternoon tea in historic Old Town, where every sip tells a story.
