English Rose
Hello fellow tea lovers! I am writing to describe my superb experience at the English Rose Tea Room in Cave Creek Arizona. Having never been there before and being a tea enthusiast, my expectations were a bit “queasy.” However after talking to a lovely young girl named Cari, she informed me that my insecurities would soon vanish. And so they did. Walking in the tea room I was greeted by both the hostess and the girl Cari. Though Cari seemed very busy she dropped everything and thus sat me. The table was small for three people but still lovely. The tables were decorated with antique cards and lace and everything seemed clean and dainty. Cari served us with excellence while maintaining the very crowded desk-area. Though obviously busy none of the staff seemed a bit stressed and ALL were very helpful and caring. One of my guests was elderly and needed assistance to her table from which I was planning on giving myself. To my surprise Cari and the hostess provided two strong arms and helped my elderly guest to and from her table and even to get a vintage hat! Guests of ALL ages have to see the hat room it is very fun. The food was flavorful and the servings appropriate. The tea was very good, I branched out an tried the “paris” tea from which I was much pleased with. The tea room itself was adorable and the service was the best I have had yet. Fellow tea lovers this is a MUST Lauren Rulhe
Tearoom response:
Dear Lauren, Thank you for your review which meant more to me than you could know. It is very difficult for me to leave the Tea Room for a vacation, but the week that you came in I managed some time away with my husband. It warmed my heart to know that my wonderful staff continued to give their unique and caring service even in my absence and I have passed your thoughtful feedback onto to both my Manager, Fara (the hostess) and Kari my wonderful college student who has worked for the Tea Room since she was 17yrs old. Thank you again for such kind remarks. Jo Gemmill, Owner
