Painted Tea Cup — Restaurant in Upper Darby

I have driven by this establishment for years, and finally visited a few days ago. The interior is very dainty and cute, it would be a nice place to shop for a gift. High tea is $33 a person, and you each get a choice of tea, a lunch plate, and a dessert plate. I personally would have liked a more robust selection of teas, but their selection (although limited) is still quite good. The tea menu had 1 black tea, 1 no-caffeine black tea blend, 1 green tea, 1 earl grey white tea, 1 rooibos tea. The lunch plate had about 7-8 items, includes a scone, a sweet bread, and a chicken salad croissant. The dessert plate had 3 mini desserts. They also served a tea biscuit at the beginning of the tea session. I wish they served more jam and clotted cream since the serving they gave was for the table and not an individual serving.

Overall, I think it was a very good experience. I think the quality of the food is top-notch, I just personally think the quantity could have been increased for the price, since they serve bites rather than full servings. I would be open to visiting again for their seasonal offerings...

Our knitting group had a wonderful time today, and the staff were outstanding! We were pampered and enjoyed the wonderful teas, the delicious little treats both savory and sweet, and the charming decor added up to a great time. We plan to return to attend one of their wreath making classes, and to shop in the glorious rooms upstairs, filled to the brim with all the baubles and pretties anyone might imagine. Of course you can buy the teas. And the jellies. If only we could have bought an extra serving of all those little mouthfuls to take home! Prices are crazy reasonable, the selection is large, and we could have spent another few hours trying on wraps and scarves and jewelry. I can't r recommend this lovely shop highly enough. See it at the holidays for a real treat in themed...

1st time here, while making the reservation...I told them I limit my yeast intake, but I am NOT a vegan or gluten-free. They listed me as Vegan anyway and gave those options, which were very few. I kept clarifying that I was not a vegan throughout my time here and had to request the regular desert options. The vegan/vegetarian option for lunch was a massive salad of "random vegetables thrown together, and a Mango dressing." If you are a vegan or vegetarian, be aware that they do not have many options as they are not catering to your demographic but merely tolerating it. If you have food sensitives or allergies, PLEASE be very specific and repetitive about them before and after arrival. Overall, the food was good and the tea was great but some...
