We enjoyed our first time at afternoon tea! My only suggestion is maybe add one more small (nonsweet) item in the first course, and reduce the size of the scone in second course. That being said, we absolutely enjoyed everything! The lemon curd was my daughter’s favorite. I really enjoyed the pot of raspberry earl grey. We also ordered a tea flight and they were all delicious.

It was a very special experience for my mother and I. This was a treat for her birthday. Food was well presented and good. I would suggest a small condiment for ham and cheese croissant. The steps are extremely tall on the second run for someone with ailments. Need a second rail for stability. Will be back.

Holly Blossom Tea Room was our first time experiencing a traditional "High Tea". The ambience of the tea room was cozy with soft music in the background, the scent of roses floating in the air. The elegant table was set beautifully just waiting for someone to sit in comfortable seating, linger over hot tea and enjoy the delightful delicacies. Our hostess was amazing! Served our table expertly and explained the food and different tea flavors knowledgeably. We will be returning to Holly Blossom Tea!

We loved the idea, setting, service and ambiance. We are clean, healthy eaters though and was not able to get full with the types of food that was provided. I would suggest modifying the food being served. If the menu is going to be so limited there should be a bread heavy option and a protein/vegetable option on the menu. I feel like this place definitely caters to women and most women are mindful of what they are eating. You want them to leave happy, satisfied and positive. Let them choose what they eat so that can happen. Thank you and good luck. We hope this business makes it!

Oh, I think that there must have been a misunderstanding.... At The Holly Blossom, we off a traditional British Afternoon tea: A Traditional Afternoon Tea is not meant to be a light or “healthy” experience—it is an indulgence, a ritual of refinement and delight. It is a centuries-old tradition designed to be decadent, abundant, and celebratory, where every detail, from the first pour of tea to the final sweet bite, is chosen to charm both the eye and the palate. The tiers arrive laden: delicate finger sandwiches to start, rich and buttery scones served warm with clotted cream and jam, and finally a selection of exquisite pastries and confections that feel almost too pretty to eat. Each course is crafted not for restraint, but for pleasure and abundance, a perfect companion to a pot of fine tea. Afternoon tea is about slowing down, savoring conversation, and indulging in the art of hospitality. It is a moment out of time—decadence served in tiers—and it is meant to leave one not wanting, but wonderfully content. We understand that this might not be everyones cup of tea and that is perfectly fine. We will continue to remain true to the traditions of After Noon Tea, just as it has been enjoyed for generations. There is a differance between an Afternoon Tea and High Tea. Afternoon Tea – A light, elegant meal traditionally served around 3–4 p.m. It includes finger sandwiches, scones with cream and jam, and small pastries or sweets, all enjoyed with tea. It was a social occasion for the upper classes. High Tea – served around 5–7 p.m., and included heartier foods like meats, pies, bread, cheese, and vegetables — more like dinner, with tea alongside. We only offer Afternoon Tea at the Moment. Thank you - and rest assured Afternoon tea has been beloved for centeries. We're delighted to carry on that tradition here, and the response so far shows shows we are here to stay.

I had such a wonderful time with my friends! I love afternoon tea and it was so cute and a lovely way to spend time with my friends. It was a bit warm in the room, may have been the combination of hot tea in a small room, but overall it was really enjoyable!!
