Charlotte's Tea Room
The new location for this tearoom has brought out the full flair of Charlotte's. There are several themed rooms from which to choose; Harney & Sons tea is served. The food is heavenly, the price fair. But beyond these general expectations of a good tearoom is where Charlotte's really shines. It’s the little thrilling details: the way the theme of the room is carried on in unexpected ways; in the perfect pairing of breads and their contents within with subtle minced fruits and surprising herbed cheeses; the clotted cream direct from Devon; the way a proper tea is served in a “best friend” setting; the little butters cut into hearts; the tiaras that are given out for birthdays, age regardless. All of the tea room girls here are fantastic. I have had the great fortune, however, to be attended to twice by Megan, the pure embodiment of all that Charlotte’s has to offer. Charlotte’s is a delightful place that has found the perfect formula to fuse British, Irish, Colonial, and “down home” teas. In these days where our pockets must be watched ever closer, Charlotte’s offers civility, politeness, cheer and good value.
