House of Herbs & Roses — Restaurant in Sydney

We came here to celebrate my daughter’s birthday with a lovely high tea last weekend. Everything was wonderful and far exceeded my expectations. The room was set up so beautifully, with a lovely leafy outlook, and they had an extensive selection of teas to choose from. Every person had their own unique tea cup which was very cute. All the food was simply delicious! The sandwiches were all fresh and tasty, the scones were perfection, and the selection of little sweet treats delectable. My personal favourites were a delicious little passion fruit tart with meringue and a caramel slice. The new owners were lovely and it was a very smooth process to make the booking, with prompt replies. I look forward to returning to this hidden gem and would encourage others to pay them a visit for a superb high tea experience...

Gorgeous cafe with lots of seating - indoor ( warm, woody yet fresh ambience), Al fresco ( undercover and in the garden). Lots of colour with various flowers and the birds chirping in spring.

The food was great. They serve breakfast, lunch and high tea. The cutlery and the ambience makes you feel like the Royal.... Reminds me of the Kensington Palace Tea House in London ( minus the vast expanse and Palace). All food was fresh with attention to detail. We were well served and looked after even though it got busy.

We had the Dhal house tea- great punchy and refreshing tea with "warm from the oven" scones with Jam and cream.

The bruschetta, friatta and chicken and leek crepe were all fresh and great tasting

The lemon and lime tart was good.

This place is one of the hidden gems of Dural, and has the best scones! From the outside it looks like a small nursery with not much to offer in the way of cafes, however if you take the time to come inside, you'll be delighted with this provincial cottage style café. The staff are wonderfully helpful, and the tables are nicely spaced, so that you are not clanking into your neighbours seats. The menu has a little something for all tastes, and did I mention the scones? They also have a great selection of teas, which are served in proper teacups, and a porcelain teapot (not those horrid metal things). High tea is a Sunday specialty and you will need to book. This is one of my favourite places and highly recommended for morning tea or a...
