Dress up and head out for a tea service at one of the charming tea rooms in Ohio. Truth be told, I was shocked as I did the research for these on how many we have here in the Buckeye state.  Tea rooms have always had a special place in my heart. My great-grandma gave me a tea service as a little girl, and since then, I have enjoyed savoring a cup of tea.
Tea is a beautiful thing. It steeps and brews while you sit and wait for that perfect color to take over your china cup. As you wait for the towers of tasty cakes, finger sandwiches, and lovely scones are set in front of you. Clotted cream beacons you to pick up the butter knife to begin the tea service with the scone.

Why go to a tearoom?

  • To enjoy a variety of teas. Tearooms offer a wide variety of teas to choose from, so you can find the perfect one to suit your taste.
  • To try new foods. Tearooms often have a menu that features unique and delicious dishes that you won’t find anywhere else.
  • To experience a different culture. Tearooms can be a great way to learn about different cultures and traditions.
  • To relax and de-stress. The calming atmosphere of a tearoom can help you to relax and de-stress after a long day.
  • To get away from it all. Tearooms are a great place to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
