The Milk Pail
I liked that this was a family owned establishment with a beautiful little girl serving us. However, I came with a group and we were overcharged despite the owner's original quote. Additionally, not everyone in our group was Christian, so some of the group members were offended when he insisted on praying over us despite our objections. This is the second time I have seen the owner offend a group since visiting the tea room. The last time was several months ago when I saw him have an argument with another lady with a group she brought into the restaurant. At the time I was dining with a friend of mine. I decided to give him another chance this time since I didn't know what prefaced the argument, but seeing him add additional charges to our group has made me wonder about the owner's business ethics. I hope the owner will consider this when he works with other groups.
Tearoom response:
Thank you for the kind words... The little girl is my daughter!:) Please understand that we have a policy that a $400 bench mark has to be met to have the room to yourself. $400.00 plus 20% gratuity and 8% sales tax. When we close our door to walk in business we have to place a value on that. Your group did not call 72 hours in advance, to confirm your book club was coming. For $20.00 per person inclusive of tax and Gratuity, your group had the room to yourself for $200.00 total plus free Mimosas.

Especially For You
This tearoom has absolutely the best broccoli and cheese soup in the world, the chip dip is amazing, the chicken sandwich is scrumptious, and of course their tea wonderful as well. The atmosphere is a calm and relaxing and the design is somewhat Victorian.
