Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Virginia Vale

We had a wonderful holiday tea at Babe's Tea Room. We have done holiday tea every year for 13 years at various places in Boulder and Babe's absolutely blows them all away. Starting with the tea room itself -- we were seated on a very comfortable couch and chair, since it was only two of us, with decent room on the table for all the tea and treats, but we also had a side table that came in very handy to put things on (tea tables can get crowded with all the "stuff"). The tea menu is outstanding -- so many to choose from and you can have as many pots as you like so if you don't care for what you order, no problem. Get something different! They also offer a great menu of delicious cocktails. The food was outstanding! Everything was fresh and soft and so delicious. The sandwiches -- chicken curry, roasted turkey, cheddar with apple, and cucumber were so good. The scones were excellent (scones are usually dry and meh, but these had the perfect balance of soft and firm) and they were very tasty, especially the cinnamon chip. The sweet treats were also delicious and perfectly balanced (not too sweet). Our server was wonderful too. So friendly, so knowledgeable, so attentive. This really was the best afternoon/holiday tea we have had in a really long time. I know we'll be going to Babe's throughout the year and not just limiting ourselves to the holidays. It's that good!

Summer, our server was outstanding. We had a great date night. Good food, nice portions, and great cocktails without breaking the bank. We'd go again.

A delightful afternoon tea! Great ambiance for Christmas season.. All the staff were attentive and took great care of us. I asked for a table away from the piano and hostess went out of her way to find a quieter table for us! Our server from Moldavia was delightful. The food was delicious and plenty of choices. The tea was hot and topped up with hot water frequently. My one complaint would be that there was only one pot of tea per person -I would like to have had a few more to try. I should have asked for more as I think they have given it to me!

We enjoyed their tea service and it was phenomenal! The food was delicious, and we enjoyed each tea we tried! I love that it's unlimited tea and that the server was very knowledgeable about the selection and happy to give recommendations! The ambiance was lovely! Highly recommend!

We always love our visits to Local Jones. The food is great! The service is excellent. And, they always remember us. Feels like home. Thank you :).
