   Absolutly love going to the museum. The tea experience was not only unique it was delicious. I absolutly adored the dates with chevre I think I could have eaten just an entire tray of those. Kudos to the staff for an amazing job well done!

   Attended a tea event at East Cafe, and it was an absolute delight! The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making the experience even more enjoyable. The food was beyond expectations—beautifully prepared and full of flavor. The cucumber mint cilantro tea sandwich was my favorite savory option, and the lavender honey scone was so delicious. But the real highlight was the tea itself—a true experience that showcased quality and tradition. Highly recommend for anyone looking to indulge in a unique and memorable tea event! Had the best time catching up with old friends, and can’t wait to bring my mom for the Mother’s Day tea event.

   The Art in Bloom Tea was outstanding! Our server was prompt and food was quite enjoyable. Still dreaming of those honey chevre stuffed dates. They also had specialty Flower themed cocktails so I ordered a Hibiscus Margarita and it was delicious!

   Thank you so much for your thoughtful review. We are so happy you enjoyed the food and the dates. The Hibiscus Margarita may have to have a permanent place on the menu. Thank you for supporting our Museum.

   After a long wait the server wanted to serve us a carnivore menu and insisted that was what we had ordered. (The lady seating us was aware of our vegetarian order and handed us the vegetarian menu at arrival) The server requested to see my ticket / order. Once she did she told us she will talk to the kitchen and see what they can do..After another long wait she finally can out with what we ordered. The food was ok.No high quality sandwiches or sweets.The cakes was just exactly that - sweet, extremely sweet with no much flavor. There wasn’t put much thought and love in decorating the venue.The tables itself were decorated ok. After being at tea parties in London and NYC this was rather disappointing at a higher cost.

   I love high tea and always enjoy the experience at East Cafe. This year, the food was especially good. I't rather expensive but well worth it for the unique experience.

    Wow! I attended the Art of Tea In Bloom this past weekend and absolutely LOVED it! The food was amazing, we couldn't even finish it all, and got a goodie bag to have some of the treats later in the day! My absolute favorite was the scone with clotted cream and jam. But that is not all... The service was attentive, and truly made the full experience feel like a very special event! I felt as if it were a celebration from the moment I entered. Thank you for such a memorable experience that now will become a tradition to look forward to every year!
