The Modern Tea Room — Restaurant in Lancaster

I love the vegan food there. I’ve tried their tacos and they are deliciously marinated walnut meat. Unfortunately, not all the pastries are vegan. The Mother’s Day special came with a pastry and I forgot to ask if it was vegan since they offered it to me that day for free which was so sweet of them to do. I unfortunately had digestive issues but that was all my fault for not asking if it was indeed vegan friendly. Lesson learned on my part. Other than that the waitress was very accommodating and friendly. The Oreo puffs are very sweet puff pastry I believe wrapped around Oreo cookies and chocolate ganache. The Avo sandwich is a standard alfalfa with avocado always a nostalgic taste back to when I first went vegan 8 years ago. I loved this tea house, the teas are amazing, steeped to perfection! I’ve tried their Roses or dozen roses tea, I’m horrible with names please forgive me, which I recommend it’s magnificent. The art around the walls is so pretty too I wish I had $650 to buy one piece it spoke to me, but just sitting under it admiring it for half an hour...

It's small, crowded, and noisy. If you are looking for a light, casual vibe with awesome food brunch place. THIS IS NOT THE ONE.

Only tea is good. Both modern Margarita and watermelon infused are delicious. But food is just not worth the wait. Low quality ham and salmon are used in our dishes. Even the cheese, veggie, Hawaii toast can't hide the bad taste from the meat. Salad is a bunch of spinach sprinkles with feta cheese and a really sour dressing that cause the bread soaked. I feel like a goat or cow when eating it...

The servers are nice but probably need to prioritize what things they should do first. We wait for over 30 mins for the table and painfully watching how inefficient the servers was. For example, a long line waiting but three tables are empty for at least 5 mins because the servers are busy chatting with other tables and having a hard time putting down napkins, utensils and the menu for the new table. Super disappointed... I thought we find a gem in this area...

My husband and I went here for the first time today. The service was great, staff nice, atmosphere pleasant and prices fair. I ordered the vegan cheesesteak and it was delightful, husband ordered turkey and cheese and he was not thrilled with the taste. He actually split my cheesesteak with me because he said his sandwich wasn’t tasty. We both enjoyed our teas. I will definitely return, I appreciate the kindness of the staff and the service. It would be nice to have fries (sweet potato or otherwise), or other sides to choose from other than ruffles chips. That option should be upgraded because no one going to this restaurant to experience the food and ambiance wants ruffles potato chips. I definitely recommend to try this place out. The next door restaurant is combined and although we didn’t eat there the lady up front was so warm and inviting we will definitely be back. Yes I would recommend. If they can get a liquor license to add to the teas this would enhance the...
