No, not at this time. While we strive to offer a variety of delicious menu options, we are unable to accommodate individual dietary restrictions or food allergies at this time. We kindly encourage guests with specific dietary needs to review our menu in advance to determine if our offerings are suitable. 


The Royal Tea Room experience is best suited for children ages 6 and older. However, children of all ages are welcome, provided they are able to remain seated throughout the experience and are respectful of other guests.


For the comfort and safety of our guests and staff, children must remain seated at all times and be accompanied by an adult when visiting the restroom.


Our tearoom features many delicate and one-of-a-kind items, so we kindly ask that children are supervised closely during their visit.


Guests who are unable to follow these guidelines may be asked to conclude their visit early.


Please note that we are unable to provide highchairs or booster seats.


We have a simple motto at the tearoom:


Wear what makes you feel most beautiful!

_____


In the Victorian era, afternoon tea evolved from a modest mid-afternoon snack into a cherished social tradition. Ladies dressed in their finest hats, gowns, and gloves to gather between four and five o’clock, as tea moved from private parlors to the elegant tearooms of London’s grand hotels.

Though times have changed, the spirit of the tradition lives on. 


Just as those fashionable gatherings once called for a touch of glamour, we believe the experience of afternoon tea at The Royal Tea Room is best enjoyed in a fabulous outfit. 


We encourage dressy, smart, or business casual attire to match the occasion.


Items on our Tea Service menu are served prix fixe, with thoughtfully curated courses for you to enjoy.


At The Royal Tea Room, we believe every day holds something worth celebrating. For life’s extra special moments, we offer the option to reserve our tearoom for private events.
