I had afternoon tea with my husband here for my birthday and they knocked the experience OUT OF THE PARK!! From the moment I walked in the door, it felt like being in paradise. Elegantly decorated, a beautiful woman playing the harp in the tea room, impeccable service, and beautiful and delicious savories and sweets. They made my special day so incredibly special!! If you're a fan of afternoon tea, DEFINITELY make yourself a reservation!! Also, try the butterfly pea flower tea!! It's delicious and it's blue!!
One of the more upscale spots in Philadelphia that has that Parisian aesthetic. It’s on the pricier side, afternoon tea set starts at $70 per person. The space is in the lobby of the rittenhouse hotel, nice open and airy, service was great as well, our server was very attentive and sweet. The teas were amazing, complex and fragrant. Food was good, not great, but generally I’m never blown away by afternoon tea food so this is already above average as far as high teas go. Scones were definitely good, desserts are interesting and pretty delicate. Sandwiches were just ok, wish they had more options to pick from.
Best birthday gift from my mom ever! What a great experience. When we walked in, someone was playing a harp, which made the atmosphere even fancier than it already was. Mary took excellent care of us. I highly recommend this place for celebrating a special occasion. You will feel like royalty. The tea choices were excellent and the food was so intricate and delicious. I will be telling all my friends about this place.
