The House of Commons
I discoverd this tearoom on my visit to Denver last year, and I made sure I returned this year when I came to Denver. I find it a pleasant and relaxing place, even when it is busy. The food is wonderful. I can get teas there that I have never found elsewhere. The servers have always been friendly and responsive. I always make sure to take time to vist the House of Commons when I come to Denver. I wish I had a tearoom like this back home.

Tea Upon Chatsworth
A friend and I had a conference to attend in San Diego and while looking for other tearooms to visit I found this one. I have toured San Diego tearooms before, but this was not open on my last visit to San Diego. I am from out of state. This was such a wonderful find!!! They have the biggest selection of tea choices I have ever seen in a tearoom. I tried the House Blend and enjoyed it very much. The atmosphere took us away to a different place and time, and we liked the table setting very much. Our server was attentive, and very helpful. I had spoken with Joy, the owner a couple of times before our visit, and it was delight to meet her in person. The food was delicious and quite filling. We did not need to eat dinner that night! The fall menu was quite good with the standard fare, as well as some special things like the pumpkin bread with orange butter. We finished off with some gingerbread ice cream that very different, and extremely tasty. Our overall experience is one that we kept discussing throughout our time in San Diego and I think was the highlight of our whole trip. I can't wait until I have another opportunity to go to San Diego to experience this tearoom again. It was marvelous!
