You really will feel as though you’ve been whisked to the capital city of the United Kingdom. That shouldn’t come as a surprise, though, as the tea room is “run by homesick Brits.”

Although it sports a Locust Street address, the tea room’s main entrance is on 19th Street, so be sure to go to that door to enter.

Choose between two types of prix fixe menus - Afternoon Tea and High Tea. Afternoon Tea is the top tier and includes a pot of tea, three savory foods, a scone with clotted cream and jam, and four desserts.

The High Tea promises to fill you up, too, and features five savory foods, a scone, and a pot of tea.

You can also add on to what’s included in your tea. Several types of cake - blueberry lemon and rock cake, for example - are available in addition to sweet, savory, and mini scones.
