Beckers 1,136 Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 I wish I liked tea.You can get soda, chocolate milk and coffee. My mom wants to take Elizabeth when she is old enough and I checked out the menu because I don't drink hot tea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wendinator 109 Posted January 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Something a little different every time. May 2013. Inferior strawberries and whipped cream compared to the last time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wendinator 109 Posted January 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Back for tea again. This is the last one, I promise. August 2013. Look at the paltry amount of clotted cream. And what's with the lemon curds? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wendinator 109 Posted April 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Remember how I said it was the last time? And I promised? I lied. Went for the Grand Tea this time, which comes with a glass of sparkling wine and some duck pâté (that I didn't eat and gave to my husband). Love those onion tarts. Our server must have overheard me say this was insufficient clotted cream, because she brought me another tray after this one was done. This was new since the last time I was here. It's a bananas foster trifle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beckers 1,136 Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Yum! I'm glad you lied and went back. I love seeing the pictures of the tea. Just wish clotted cream had a different name! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They also refer to it as Devonshire cream, which takes longer to say but you're right that it sounds more appealing! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 I am thinking about surprising DW and DD with a trip to the tea room. The princess tea party is $250 for my DW and DD. Ouch!Do you think a 9 year old would enjoy the regular tea service? It's a lot more affordable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ouch!Do you think a 9 year old would enjoy the regular tea service? It's a lot more affordable. I haven't been to the princess tea party so I can't compare the two, but in the afternoon they do still offer a children's version of the tea menu (Mrs Potts Tea). The setting is somewhat formal/quiet by Disney standards, but I've seen kids there when I've gone who did fine. I think as long as you can manage expectations (quiet respite from the buzz of activity elsewhere, not a character-filled high energy activity) it's a nice little tranquil break.

Beckers 1,136 Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Ray I haven't gone, but I would think your daughter would like the regular tea with her mom. Check the menu first, but she would probably like doing something a litte more on the grown up side. I forget, how old is she? 9? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ouch!Do you think a 9 year old would enjoy the regular tea service? It's a lot more affordable.My girls went at that age and loved it. They get chocolate milk in a teapot, and their sandwiches are PB & J. We've made it a tradition and they're all teens now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GaDawgFan.....Kelly 799 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 The food looks tasty! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 I've been a few times now and the food has always been yummy. It's also one of the few truly quiet and relaxing places to eat at WDW. It's really lovely. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CKCK 45 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 My wife is a fan of the HTT (hoity toity tea). She dragged me there once. Just once. She took the reds there also (6 and 4 now). They liked it. I do not. Must be a girl thing. I'm okay with that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CKCK 45 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 Speaking of the reds we need some updated pics YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We've missed the reds. We'll get there. Let me ease back in first! I actually have a couple mini-trip reports I should probably throw together before our next one comes up...pretty soon I might add. I might have been absent from here for awhile, but we didn't stop going to the Fort! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
red...Susan 37 Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 Went to tea yesterday 5/8/14. It was very nice. We found it more than a snack and ended up skipping dinner. We had tea at 3:40. DH like everything but the cucumber sandwich, the bread was made with caraway seed. Neither if us had the egg sandwich and I liked the pear one the best. The service was great. The manager took over a year ago. He is very knowledgable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 Dug up some of my tea room pics from assorted trips in the last few years... Tuna Poke from the Princess Kate meal (my favorite) Cheese plate - everything on here is awesome, including the biscuits Desserts... Full dessert tray with all choices Strawberries and cream dessert option A more current photo of the finger sandwiches - the egg salad was my favorite. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 Found more photos from November 2013. I was lucky enough to eat here twice that trip... Scones with lemon curd, butter and raspberry jam... wowsa. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wendinator 109 Posted November 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 Back for tea again and this time the sandwiches were different. Bye bye salmon, and the pear & stilton. The two new ones are the open faced ones you see - beet on the left, tomato on the right. Nothing new to report on the scone and tart front. Pastry course seems to get a tiny bit less good each time. If you opt out of the strawberries & cream, or the seasonal pumpkin trifle, they bring this plate of pastries. Before you used to be able to choose from a selection of pastries, but now they're pre-plated. Eclair, chocolate covered strawberry, orange mousse swan. Still tasty and I'll still keep going.

BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 We've got ADRs in a couple of weeks. How were the new sandwiches? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
red...Susan 37 Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 I enjoyed them. Especially the yellow beet. The tomato was on what looked like focaccia. Eros tea is my favorite. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
