Nestled in the historic village of Long Grove, Gerri's Tea Room represents her roots and heritage as a native of Ireland. Opened in 2012, the tea room features a classic experience and introduction to the past time of afternoon tea in an elegant and charming setting.
The high tea is inspired by British classics – an artful array of finger sandwiches, raisin scones, and petite pastries – a menu that represents authenticity. Gerri and her hosts fill delicate antique tea cups with freshly brewed and strained tea from antique silver teapots in Victorian attire.
From ladies’ socials, birthdays and bridal showers to corporate events and wedding receptions, High Tea with Gerri accommodates all occasions, never compromising on quality or intimacy – even for large gatherings!

The little sandwiches at Gerry’s are wonderful – except for the little crab rounds. I just don’t care for crab, but everything else was delicious. Since Gerry’s has a set menu I just gave the little crab piece to my partner who loved it.

The food was very good, however the amount was minimal for the price. Would have loved to have more. The experience was enchanting and lovely and very special. The tea blend was very nice!

We had such a lovely time. The ambiance is perfect and everything was delicious. Our server was very sweet. If I had one suggestion, it would be, offer champagne. This was my second time here and it was so enjoyable.

My first experience at a tea service and it was awesome. Gerri's place was so neatly decorated i really didn't know what to expect. Our server was very sweet and accommodating and the food, yes super small portions, was delicious. My wife explained that this isn't a "regular " restaurant in terms of quantity of food but it's an experience. And an experience it was!
