So disappointed! My daughter and I visited Twigs and Tea on May 29 at 12:05. We have visited several times before and loved it. Previously, the service and food have been excellent. However, on this occasion we did not have a good experience. We did not have reservations. Spur of the moment decision after grandson's award program. Cannot attest to food that day, but our greeting experience was deplorable. No cars in parking lot. We thought we lucked out without reservations. Walked in. No one in area anywhere. Looked in dining area. No one! We said "Hello?". Young lady came up behind us. Blank look. Asked what we wanted. No welcome and I thought what we wanted might be obvious since we were in a tea room at noon. We said we'd like to have lunch. Another lady came. She was flustered and said she didn't think that was possible due to being booked. Looked at the book. My daughter had also " looked at the book" and it had no write ins. Granted, the dining area did have 2 tables set up, but there were also other tables for 2 like what we would have needed. Mind you, there was NO ONE in the entire establishment. Strange and very disappointing. Perhaps a sign on the door would be appropriate saying bistro closed due to parties. This was my go to place for a special lunch. NO MORE. I will miss your food and the atmosphere that had been my usual experience. There are other...
Read moreI was a bit skeptical when I first was told about Twigs & Tea, mainly because the cost of the regular tea seems awfully pricey to me. However, I soon found out that there were other more reasonable options. My niece, my sister-in-law and I had lunch there on a weekday. I ordered the quiche, which was fabulous, one of the best I've ever had. There was a side salad which was nothing special. But the scone was a lemon-blueberry and it was out of this world. My tea, which I shared with my niece, was one of our favorites, the Paris blend. I also enjoy it at home. The service was excellent. Our waitress was very attentive to our needs but not overly tiresome, as some can be. My one disappointment was learning that the cake I had my eye on to take home with me was not available that day. I guess that means a return trip! Oh, and I might add that I am handicapped and depend on a rollator/walker. I was pleased to note that a ramp was provided for those of us who aren't able to use steps. All in all, lunch at Twigs & Tea was a...
Read moreDelightful dining experience.....so much so that I've been there with different friends three times in the last three weeks! You have to try their egg salad and chicken salad over dressed greens with an amazing light vinaigrette dressing accompanied with a scone and clotted cream....to die for! And, if you can possibly find room for dessert, have the bread pudding with a delicate raspberry sauce lightly kissing the delicious bread pudding. Again, too unbelievably delicious to describe. The selection of teas is without a doubt the best in the Indianapolis and the scones are so light that the clotted cream makes them an irresistible temptation you can't resist. You'll need to call for reservations since the seating is so limited, but rest assured, it will be a treat you won't want to deny yourself...
