A warm atmosphere provides a relaxing time to visit with friends while enjoying a delicious array of tasty pastries, sandwiches and desserts. The wide variety of teas in endless pots is an experience to savor.

We had The Queen's Tea. Tea was hot and the sandwiches and sweets were yummy.

A dozen or so of my P.E.O. Chapter met for noon tea. Great selection of teas; savories and sweets were fresh and delicious. Bonus: beautiful items in the gift shop for porcelein/bone china addicts.

One of my favorite places. It's charming, beautiful, and quiet. The service is excellent and their selection of teas is great. Good food, too, with a wide variety of scones, sandwiches, and desserts every day. I'd suggest making reservations, though.

The service was friendly, the food excellent, and the tea fantastic.
Highly recommend!

The choice of tea flavors to choose from is superb and they sell the teas there to buy and take home. Great service and I love that you had your own heated teapot!! The scones are more of a biscuit than what I think of scones but still good!!

I loved it it’s hard to find a good afternoon tea place in Maryland before I moved I lived close to a tea place that I loved and would frequently eat at so when I moved I missed it and I tried to find a replacement but none of the places I tried came close until I went to this tearoom the sandwiches were my favorite the store had many things to buy the employees were nice and even though it a bit of a drive I will come back.as soon as I can

My daughters, granddaughter and I always go to Christmas tea each year. This year we went to TranquilaTea and had a perfectly enjoyable time. The venue is cozy, the table beautiful. The staff were helpful and friendly. Food and tea were wonderful from the soup to the scones to the sandwiches and dessert. My granddaughter was especially happy since the offer hot cocoa, since she isnt a tea lover. An enjoyable time was had by all and I highly recommend a visit to TranquilaTea.

The first time I've experienced a tea party since my time in London, and this place did not disappoint. The tea was fantastic, as was the tray of food. I will definitely be making a return trip.

Treated disrespectfully. I went with friends to a tea with reservations made the day prior. Over the phone, TranquilaTea stated they could not accommodate a gluten free diet for the next day. (I have Celiac, a severe gluten allergy) I stopped on my way there and got a medium fry and drink and planned on still having tea with my friends. There were no other patrons in the Tearoom. Our waitress told me if we give them at least 5 days notice they can get GF. Within a couple minutes, another woman approached me and said they CAN get gluten free and no outside food is allowed. 1. I was just informed by our waitress of the GF options & 2. The reservation was the day prior, so NO she couldn’t get me GF. I was taken aback. So, I guess she thought I should sit with friends and watch them eat for 2 hours and just drink tea. I left our waitress know I felt the comments were very rude. The tea itself was, however, good. I’m not sure with all of the cold spreads and sandwich salads, I would be safe from cross-contamination anyway.
