The AubreyRose Tea Room — Restaurant in La Mesa

Went for my best friend's birthday. Wonderful atmosphere. Our server was also very attentive even with how busy they were as this place is open limited days so they are bustling; especially with parties.

The servers also don't use pens and pads or anything past their own memory so hats off to them. I could never.

We started off with tea, the house blend. Very nice but then I moved to their peaches and cream blend and I swear if you like the quaker oats peaches and cream oatmeal packets you will LOVE this tea. Especially when you add cream and sugar to it.

I also had a tea that tasted exactly like an Almond Joy... and it was pleasant. I actually hate coconut as a flavor, but it wasn't overpowering. It was chocolaty and tropical and very nice.

I also had an earl grey that I cannot recall I think it had "blue" in the name it was also wonderful.

Our starter was a cantaloupe soup that was cold and so so nice. I hate cantaloupe but it was perfect especially since the day was warm. It also came with a tea sandwich that was delicious too.

Our tea tower had savory sandwiches on the bottom, scones, curd and cream in the middle and petite desserts on top.

My favorites were the cucumber sandwich and the crusty bread with green beans and cheese on it. The scone was very flavorful and they have a wonderful lemon curd! Very bright and tart. Lastly I did enjoy the shortbread cookie with the peanut butter frosting on it.

I will say since it was a tea, it's all small portions so if you have a Big appetite you will be hungry very soon after, but if you fill up on the unlimited tea you'll be alright. :)

I adore The Aubrey Rose Tea Room. I'm huge tea connoisseur and drink a lot of tea each day. It is my coffee. I used to plan monthly tea events for many years which is how I found this venue. It quickly became our favourite of all of the tea rooms in San Diego. The decor for this street front location in La Mesa Village is quaint and festive year around. They have some great trinkets, cards, teas, etc. for sale around the store, too. The tea...I always get the Queen Victoria. It includes the starter soup which is usually some delectable creamy concoction. It's never enough. Every time I get it I want a trough of it to take home. The three tiered stand of goodies that comes with tea is sandwiches or savories on the bottom, fruit and a palate cleanser in the middle, and sweet treats on the top. I have never had a thing that I didn't love and want more of. They are extremely good about accommodating any food issues/allergies as well as vegetarian/vegan. If you haven't done high/afternoon tea well it is a must. It is just a really nice way to spend an afternoon with some dear or with a group of friends. Be sure to check out their holiday menu which always has some good new treats. ...

Absolutely enchanting experience at Aubrey Rose Tea Room! From the moment we stepped in, we were transported into a cozy and elegant atmosphere that exuded charm and sophistication. The decor was simply delightful, with beautiful floral accents and vintage teacups adding to the ambiance. The service was impeccable, with friendly and attentive staff who made us feel right at home. The selection of teas was impressive, offering a wide variety of flavors to suit every taste. My daughter’s favorites were Raspberry Herbal and Jasmine with Flowers. The presentation of the tea and treats was exquisite, making us feel like royalty as we indulged in the delicious scones, sandwiches, and pastries. The attention to detail and care put into each aspect of our tea experience truly set Aubrey Rose Tea Room apart. It was a perfect retreat from the everyday life, allowing us to relax, unwind, and savor every moment. My daughter and I can't wait to return and create more wonderful memories at this charming tea room. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a top-tier tea...
