Best Afternoon Tea Restaurants in Chestnut Hill

For two battle-fatigued parents looking for some adult time away from the kids, Silver Dove was exactly the reprieve we needed. As soon as we walked in, we appreciated the restaurant’s small, quiet, intimate vibe. This was matched by the rest of our experience. The staff was attentive, courteous, and kind. The drink menu was expansive, yet not overwhelming. The food was absolutely delicious, with a special shout-out to the coronation chicken and the prosciutto-wrapped dates. On our way out, we bought a gift card to share the Silver Dove with some family members. We can’t wait to hear about the experience, and we’re already eager for our next one, too.

We had a wonderful experience at Vintage Tea & Cake from beginning to end. Lovely atmosphere, excellent service and food. It was the highlight of our trip back home for Thanksgiving and we will definitely be back!

My daughter and I had a lovely tea here last Sunday. The little store front was so charming, mismatched tea cups and china put together to make a cozy setting indeed. Excellent choice of teas with descriptions of each which was very helpful for selecting just the right one. Tea sweets and savories were homemade and outstanding. We ordered one regular and one vegetarian for the savory choices and it suited each of us well. Will come back again soon!

The accommodations made for my wife's allergies were above and beyond. We did not feel that her multiple allergies negatively impacted our options, there was plenty of variety and it all felt well thought through. Service was very upbeat, conscientious, and personable. Very well done.
