Charming, magical experience! We love this tea house. The house is precious and creates such a perfect ambiance for afternoon tea. They have a wide variety of teas to choose from and we have never been disappointed. The food is also very tasty. Upstairs there is a small gift shop and they have also recently added a “to go” window with teas, coffee, and pastries. Highly recommend for a girls date, bridal shower, or maybe to take your grandmother out for tea!

This landmark has a lot of history and I love the space and ambiance. It’s such a wonderful and niche concept.
Considering it was about $60+ per person for the tea service and snacks. They should be a bit more detail-oriented on service ie., water and tea refills. Just better service overall. The sandwich I had was dry and macaron looked sad and too sweet.
Personally, I understand this is a specialized style of dining but I can get a solo dinner at a really nice fine-dining restaurant with better food and tea.

Overall, the Mad Hatter Tea Experience started out wonderfully. The aesthetics were beautiful, the atmosphere was charming, and the French Cream Brulee tea was absolutely fantastic. The food itself was decent, though nothing particularly memorable.
Unfortunately, the service really detracted from the experience. At the end of our visit, we asked for to-go boxes, and our server seemed to completely forget about us. After roughly 20 minutes, she returned with boxes but never brought our dessert box. We waited another 20 minutes assuming she would return, but she did not — despite actively clearing other tables. Notably, nearby tables received their dessert boxes without issue.
While the ambiance and tea were excellent, the poor service left a disappointing final impression.
Aesthetics: Great
Tea: Fantastic
Food: Okay
Service: Very disappointing

My partner took me here for my birthday. All the staff were really friendly and the building is so charming. We were able to smell many tea varieties in the shop upstairs before our reservation so we had some ideas what kinds we wanted to try.
The foods and tea were delicious!
We were the last people in the building as we finished our last pot of tea, but we weren’t rushed at all and it was so relaxing.
One thing I was really impressed with and was not expecting was that our server used my preferred pronouns without even having to be asked, probably thanks to having checked my ID for an alcohol order. It was a small touch but it was the cherry on top of an already amazing experience.
I can’t wait to go again sometime.

The tea is excellent and very delicious, as well as a lovely and unique job. However, for $80 a person I would expect good food. The food was overall not good. The Christmas scone was inedibly dry. The “hot” wild rice dish was lukewarm at best, not to mention unbearably bland. The bread on the sandwiches is dry, and a scraped thin layer of the filling. Most everything was either extremely overcooked or undercooked. Dessert was gluey and super sugary cookies. I don’t know who they have cooking, but the flavor combinations were not good either and overall the food was not properly made. Nor can you get any extra despite paying $80. Frankly, this is something the establishment should take care to really improve. $80 for three pots of tea and some pretty decorations is insanity. If this issue is not dealt with, you can expect it to have a bad effect on your reputation. There’s no way that such simple food items should be so inconsistently and badly prepared. I will never be back.
The tea is amazing though, I’d reccomend just buying the bags and calling it a day.

Had “high tea” with my sister for our birthdays. The grounds and building are beautiful, on the river. The decor was appropriately “Alice in Wonderland” and yet also was fancy. The service was great. The not so great thing was the price. $65 per person for an extremely carb-heavy and not very imaginative 3-tiered plate of food. The scones were delicious (although needed twice the amount of lemon curd and cream and mouse to put on them – very skimpy). The amount of protein on the plate in sandwiches was maybe two teaspoons worth, literally. The macaron were perfect. Nice selection of teas, but I won’t go back.

Obviously a reference to Alice in Wonderland, and I didn’t have a chance to order the famous Queen of Hearts tea that people were talking about, which was okay because I got some pretty good brunch. I thought my entire experience was not something I was used to and lovely. The restaurant was located inside what looked like a residential house-turned restaurant, which was quite new and interesting to me, and I was ready to embrace the change.
Overall the food was pretty good in the most conventional manners. The hollandaise sauce enhanced the flavors of the crab cakes and tweedle puff, and the side potatoes and fries are pretty well-made. I got the combo skillet which contained kielbasa, ham, bacon, etc. along with eggs that I ordered as made sunny side up. Nothing exceptional to highlight, but nothing exceedingly constructive that I would offer, either! Just pretty good standard brunch food is how I would put what my friends and I ordered from the Mad Hatter. Oh, I must say the cinnamon roll looked amazing! We ordered the “crazy Alice” version if I remembered the name correctly, and the presentation was something else! It definitely allowed me to take a good photo prior to indulging in its sweetness. It was slightly hard despite the menu saying it’s freshly baked, but putting some cream cheese frosting on top of a piece of cinnamon roll would make the experience more pleasant.
I do not normally visit the area so I am not sure when the next time will be that I return to this establishment, but I do recommend it to those who want to experience some “old school fairy tale” vibes with themes that reflected somewhat older times! And if I do return, I would definitely love to try their tea, or even get a chance to go for the Queen of Hearts!

I called to make a reservation and unfortunately had a pretty disappointing experience with customer service. The representative I spoke with came across as rude and impatient while I was asking a few simple questions about availability. Before I could finish the conversation or complete the reservation, they hung up on me.
I understand that customer service can be busy and stressful, but basic courtesy goes a long way. I hope management looks into this and reminds staff how important it is to treat potential customers with respect. I’d still be willing to give this place another try, but this interaction definitely left a bad first impression. Just trying to get 5 generations of women in the same page is enough and then a business has this person working for them.

Had a great time with our group. The tea service was phenomenal. The chicken salad croissant and the berries and cream cheese French toast was really good. Jessica was an attentive server. Need to make reservations far in advance but it’s worth it!
