Today was my first time visiting and I can say it was a great experience. The highlight of my lunch was the hot tea I tried. They have a variety to chose from. I went for an herbal tea. Tank you Chelsea's for your amazing establishment. I highly recommend their tea and what they got to offer. I had a seasonal salad for brunch. It was fulfilling.

This tea room is owned by a wonderful couple! Their expertise on difference teas is only seconded by their amazing hospitality. The food was delicious (over the moon for the scones!) and the the tiered serve left you feeling as full if not more than a meal would. Love the decor and the perfect place for groups to gather. So happy we made the long trip out there, and this place is worth the experience. As an added bonus we also were given a quick class in napkin folding so the could decor our own table at home. My girls love it!!!

While the server came off stand-off-ish at first, he was a good server and was really helpful in suggesting what to order as I had never been here before. The raspberry tea was divine and the soup of the day was very good. The chicken salad sandwich was also very good. The strawberry butter served with the appetizer was amazing and I cannon wait to go back. I do suggest making a reservation but it is not very crowded on weekdays. The feel of this tea room was lovely. The strawberry cake and icecream pie was fantastic as well.

We booked high tea in celebration of a birthday. Every detail was exceptional. My aunt and I love to seek out places for tea and Chelsea’s on Thornton’s served the best food. I highly recommend for anyone who enjoys tea and ambiance. You will need to make reservations for high tea at least two days in advance.
