    Even though we had made the reservations several weeks earlier, we both arrived really needing this experience at that time. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcome and calm. We were taken care of, and all options were clearly explained. We were made to feel like we were very important customers. We can't wait to go back again.

    INCREDIBLE experience and definitely a hidden gem. I’ve been talking about our experience with friends and family and so many don’t even know Oak & Rose Tea Room exists (still so new so understandable!). The BEST service. From the greeting, the attention, explanation of all the delicious tea sandwiches, breads and pastries, the decor, the view, the special attention for my daughter’s birthday… we didn’t want to leave!!! It’s about time a high tea place opened by us. Baby showers, bridal showers, birthdays, holidays, Mother’s Day, or maybe you just need something special because it’s “been a week”. I cannot recommend enough!!!

    Michelle, it is amazing to hear that you had a wonderful experience with us. This is exactly what we strive for. And thank you for all of the kind words, truly means a lot. We look forward to your next visit! Sincerely, Vanessa Vanessa Shepherd Owner, Oak + Rose Tea Room

    We had a great time at the Tea room. I can’t think of one thing they need to improve! Food and beverages are delicious and bountiful, service wonderful, great light and airy dining room, and awesome ambience,… we liked it so much that we’ve decided to book the venue for my daughter’s bridal shower.
