Pinecone Cottage Tea House
This tea house has great food and is a bit different than a traditional tearoom. The focus is less on the tea itself and more on the entire meal and experience. The food varies each month, and the tea service includes several items you would not ordinarily have in a tea setting, which I really enjoyed. We had a baby shower there which was a wonderful experience. The owner seemed a bit scattered on the phone, but when we got there our service was excellent. She let us stay as long as we wanted, we got the whole place to ourselves, she entertained the member of our party who was under 5 years old, and actually ended up charging us less than we had originally agreed on for some reason! The atmosphere is cozy and quaint, with a beautiful interior. Every course was well-made, and although I didn't personally like the selection of desserts she had that day, I loved everything else. It was a refreshing alternative to the traditional predictable tea service, and a great place to have a party!
