I had never been to Netherland Inn even though I have drove passed many times and lived here for many years. I was looking at events on Facebook and found that Afternoon Tea. I love doing afternoon tea, but my boyfriend loves it even more. I read the post many times to look for age or gender restrictions. There were none. I shared the post with him, and he bought tickets almost immediately for both of us. We arrived early and checked it. It was the most lovely experience. We sat in the back corner with a mother/daughter couple. The place was beautifully decorated. The food was wonderful. The tea was wonderful, but I will bring extra tea bags for myself that I'm not allergic to in the future. Everyone was helpful with me on a cane. Everything was wonderful until we were leaving. My boyfriend was the only male present, but he didn't mind. One of the hostesses turned to him and asked how did he enjoy a women's afternoon tea. That statement spoiled the wonderful day. Why did it matter to her since he paid for the 2 tickets? Why did she need to say anything at all? If it was a women's only afternoon tea, why didn't it say anything in the event description? This was a fundraiser. I don't know if we will go back.
