Visited this tea room on Valentine's Day. Tea was great, food was delicious, ambiance was cool. We had a chance to talk to the owner and she told us how she makes almost everything from scratch (including the clotted cream which was incredible). We were visiting Half Moon Bay but I know we'd be there often if we were local. read more

I absolutely love everything about this place. The decor is beautiful, the staff is so kind and friendly, the food is delicious, and the pricing is very reasonable. They recently added the tea for 2 at a great price and you get a lot of food; definitely won't walk away hungry. I've been there 3 times now and the owner is constantly improving the menu. She is such a lovely person. Everything is made in-house, even the clotted cream and lemon curd! This is one small business you should definitely come to support. I will for sure be back! read more

We came here for a friend tea time, and the house was exactly as I pictured! Very quaint, very well decorated, and very picturesque. The owner is a wonderful, passionate person, who is so sweet and kind. She gave us history about the dish ware, gave us insight on the food (and the handmade scones!) and you could just feel the love and passion in her words. I'm not a big tea person (yes, the irony) but I found the variety of selections wonderful as everyone was able to get a tea they liked. I got the raspberry tea, and it was delicious! The food was all great, and classic tea time fare. The scones though, they were my highlight. So moist and delicious, literally the best scone I've ever eaten. It was a fantastic visit, and is now on my permanent list for tea times! read more

This is my second visit and it matched my first experience and perhaps exceeded it. Service is attentive but not hovering. Perfect. The food is fresh and there were a few new scone flavors.. try French toast it was delicious. Homemade lemon curd and clotted cream. The tea selection is unmatched. One of my companions is celiac and she enjoyed the same delicious treats completely gluten free. If you want a special experience visit By the Tea shore, you won't be disappointed. read more

I had the most wonderful afternoon tea experience at By the teashore in Half Moon Bay with my cousins/sisters! There were six of us, and from the moment we walked in, we felt so welcomed. Angela, the owner, truly made the experience unforgettable. She was incredibly warm and personable, and we loved hearing her story about her two boys and how their love of tea shops growing up inspired what she's created. It made everything feel so personal and special. And the details--wow. You can really tell how much care goes into everything. Angela shared that she spends over 20 hours making her spotted cream, and honestly, you can taste that level of dedication. Everything was absolutely delicious. It was such a cozy, memorable afternoon, and we're already talking about coming back with our little ones as she has tea service for kids as well. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a charming and heartfelt tea experience in Half Moon Bay! read more

Too often, tea spots get one thing right and miss the other: beautiful surroundings with forgettable food, or great menus in uninspired spaces. By the Teashore delivers perfection on both fronts, and at a price that makes it surprisingly affordable. Every element here feels so carefully considered, from the colors and decor to each table setting. (Even the bathroom is pretty!) The food is outstanding (special shout out to the chicken curry sandwiches and earl grey & lemon scones) and the service matches it. A big part of the magic comes from Angela, the owner. She personally manages the details that make the experience so special, and her passion is clear in everything from the atmosphere to the menu. Talking with her was a reminder that this isn't just a business, it's a labor of love, a place where she's created space for people to escape for lunch during their work week or linger over a weekend celebration. If you're looking for a tea experience that's as much about the atmosphere as it is about the food, By the Teashore is one of those rare places that gets it absolutely right, and makes it accessible enough to enjoy often. 10/10 recommend! read more

Couldn't recommend this high tea place more! The owner is so kind, the scones were absolutely amazing (both the regular wheat according to my wife and, for me, the gluten free was phenomenal). Much of the food is homemade every day with their own recipes. We had a lovely time! read more

This place is adorable & has great potential! I went Sunday for brunch & the tea was delicious & the food. We got the oatmeal and eggs and sausage. However, I was under the impression we would be able to get the 3 tiered tea service as the website said tea service was from 11-3 but when we came into the tea shop the servers told us it was at 12. So, we weren't able to enjoy the classic tea sandwiches and scones but I hope that will be fixed and will come back for that! One more thing was that their menu said "dairy free available" for the yogurt parfait which I wanted to get but when I asked the server she said they had no dairy free yogurt yet. I would recommend maybe taking that off of the menu for the time being so people aren't under the impression that there are dairy free options. Overall, it's the cutest spot & the owner is a very kind lady! I wish them all the luck and I will be back :) read more

I recently visited the highly anticipated By the Teashore, which just opened in Half Moon Bay, and I truly *wanted* to love it. To start, guests can order high tea per individual or choose a shared option for an additional $9 per person. We selected the Maverick to share among three people. In hindsight, I would recommend ordering a bit more if sharing between three, as the portions felt slightly limited. The highlight of my visit was the vanilla tea, which was lovely with the milk and sugar cubes. The food, however, did not quite meet my expectations. The sandwiches were okay, the scone was a bit dry, and I found myself wishing for a more generous portion of clotted cream. I did enjoy the lavender cookie on top. The candy "wave" element, filled with whipped cream, was visually charming, though it felt more decorative than something meant to be eaten. I love high tea and have been to many tea rooms across the Bay Area, so I came in with a sense of excitement and anticipation. By the Teashore is a new, small business, and that showed in positive ways as well. The service was friendly and kind, and the ambiance was very cute and inviting. Overall, I left feeling a bit disappointed with the food, as nothing in particular stood out to me, but I do see a lot of potential here. I hope the menu and execution continue to evolve, as the setting and concept are lovely, and I would be happy to return in the future to see how it grows. read more

What a wonderful experience! My daughter found this place on TikTok and we went today to celebrate my friend's birthday. Everything was perfect from the food quality to the decor and service. I noticed some reviews complaining about the wait for the food. While we did wait a while for our food, we were well entertained by all the beautiful antique collectibles to look at and appreciate the time to enjoy each other's company. The teas came out quickly and was enjoyable to sip while we chatted. English Tea is not a rushed experience. If you're in a hurry, don't come here and then complain. It's not fair to the business. Angela, the owner stopped at each table to spend time to talk to the guests, share the stories behind some of the collectibles and the inspiration for her foods. She even invited us to the back to witness the Nickelodeon play. That was a treat! We've never seen one before. The personal interaction is a nice touch and appreciated. We felt welcomed. It was great to hear the process for the recipes of the food served and the time it takes to prepare everything daily. True heart in preparing and serving quality over quantity. Angela explained why service was a little slow. It is because she was short staffed and all the foods are handmade and made to order. No wonder everything tasted so fresh! We each ordered the Maverick. The Maverick comes with 2 sandwiches, 2 scones, salad, mini quiche, fresh fruit, petite four, and a beautiful handmade spun sugar wave cup with fresh cream, gummie shark, and merreign (sp?). They ran out and the order was taking a little extra long so she went to the kitchen to hand make a fresh batch for us and offered an extra macaroon while we waited. The wait was worth it! It was a lot of food and all enjoyable. I read a review commenting not enough food for sharing for 3 people. Obviously it is not meant to be shared with 3 people for the true experience and you may still be hungry. Since we each had our own, it was plenty of food. We each had to-go box. The food... The scones were delicious! They were light and moist, not dry and dense. And... the clotted cream, and lemon curd were my favorite to add to the scones. The clotted cream tasted like smooth, airy light butter,and the lemon curd was on the thinner side but had small bits of lemon pieces. The sandwiches were fresh, my goodness, the bread was so soft as if it was a freshly baked loaf of bread. The quinoa kale salad with lemon and roasted pine nuts was one of my favorite. I recommend trying the curry chicken sandwich. It was light on the curry with a nice crunch from the apples. The three of us have been to many tea places around the Bay Area and By the Teashore is the best so far! Highly recommend trying! read more

Really, really great tea shop. A lot of thought has gone into this place, and it shows. We came specifically for the tea service, but they also offer breakfast. For the tea service there are different options of how many items you'd like, or you can order a la carte. I chose the middle choice, which included two sandwiches, a scone with clotted cream, jam and lemon curd, salad, a mini quiche, fresh fruit on a skewer, a lavender sugar cookie and a meringue. My sandwiches were curried chicken salad (Coronation chicken) and egg salad, and the scone was Earl Grey and lemon. The sandwiches are assembled fresh when you order. The scones are made fresh every day. The quiches and cookies are also made in-house. They even make their own lemon curd and clotted cream! My niece ordered the larger option to share, and it included a beautiful blue sugar ocean wave with a gummy shark inside. Very creative. There is a wide variety of tea options. Tea is served in individual teapots with tea cozies, and individual strainers and rests. The waiter gave us the suggested amount of steep time, which is an added touch I always appreciate when ordering tea. We ate outdoors, but peeked inside just to see the decor. The walls are covered with art, photos, handheld mirrors, all sorts of things, but it's so well done that it doesn't look cluttered. The chandeliers are amazing. There are some shelves where they're selling individual vintage tea cup and saucer sets at very reasonable prices. The owner came out to visit with us and told us about what inspired her to open the teashop, and all the different foods they make fresh in house. The location is great -- it's on Main Street, but a few blocks from the busiest part. We had no trouble parking, and were close enough to wander through the Main Street shops. By the Teashore doesn't have to be this good, but it is. I'll definitely be back. read more

By the Teashore is a lovely spot full of homegrown charm. I took my friend for tea as a celebration and everything was great! We opted to order sandwiches, tea, and scones a la carte which fit what we were looking for. The biggest reason I was excited about this place was the gluten-free vegetarian options. The owner was so sweet and had put a ton of time into ensuring dietary restrictions can be accommodated. She explained she uses blue sugar to indicate the GF options and bakes them on their own tray on the top rack so nothing gets contaminated. Very thoughtful and helpful! I think they are still working a few things out, but the passion and care is so clear, and I know it will only get better! I'm excited to bring some other friends, especially when their vegan menu expands (which is apparently on the way!) read more

Very lovely tea room! I've only been to one other tea room before in downtown SF and loved it so I was excited to see this spot pop up on my TikTok. My partner and I made the half hour trek from South San Francisco and it was definitely worth it. We each got our own tiered plate. My favorites have to be the blueberry scone and curry chicken sandwiches. Everything was delightful and beautifully presented. The portions are good, but remember, it IS afternoon tea, so you aren't really coming here to get a large meal. The place itself is small but beautifully decorated. A big part of tea rooms is the ambience, so I do appreciate the beauty the owner put into this place! As others mentioned, this place just recently opened so it is expected that they are finding their groove and still learning. With that being said, they are adjusting wonderfully and were very kind and attentive. At not one moment did I see anyone standing around idly, all the servers were busy running around and providing great service. Wishing this small business all the success! Can't wait until they have crumpets. ;) read more

By the Teashore - Half Moon Tea (comes with bottomless pot of tea) $39 - Tea Rooms Near Me - Half Moon Bay, California

I had high tea here today with friends, and we had a great time! We've been to a number of tea places before, and this ranked high on the list. The place is tiny and cluttered in a charming way, with many things to look at all around. The service was fine and the staff were pleasant. We got our teas fairly quickly and the food followed soon thereafter, and it was delicious! From the "I hate kale salad" (tasty) to the excellent scones with clotted cream and lemon curd, we were very happy. I had the wagyu beef with horseradish cream sandwich and it was outstanding. My friends loved their cucumber and cream cheese sandwiches too. There's not too much food--you'll leave satisfied but not too full. We closed the place down...the owner came by to chat with us for a bit, which we enjoyed. Service is leisurely, so expect to linger. We were there on a Friday and didn't have to wait when we showed up for our reserved time--the experience on a weekend might be different. Anyhow, highly recommend this tea shop that is clearly a labor of love for the owner. I wish her continued success read more

exceptional food, friendly service. We go to a lot of high tea and the quality of food here is very good. Fun and classy decor.

We came in for a morning slot and were sad to realize that they do not offer the tea service all day, which makes sense given that tea is typically brunch/lunch but really needs to be made more obvious online. We overheard other parties in the same situation. After ruling out the tea service menu options, there were only a few limited breakfast items to choose from. I hope in the future they expand the breakfast menu or start offering tea service for the whole day. The children's menu looks great and we would have liked to been able to order the pancakes or eggs. We went with the French Toast instead and it was unique and delicious. The whipped cream on top was amazing. The tea menu is much more limited than I'm used to seeing in a tea parlor and they were out of a few teas so that really limited options. It also seems like the tea service doesn't include the actual tea, which is different from any other tea place I've been to. We ordered a "bottomless" tea pot, but it was never refilled for us. We also got an earl grey scone, which is very small and yet is served with a large amount of toppings that would be impossible to use on such a little item. Unfortunately the clotted cream was really bad, it had gone sour and was not edible. The scone itself was flavorless and a texture I've never encountered. Maybe it was gluten free? We weren't able to eat it, which was sad since it was over $8. The tables were very wobbly, which made the dining experience uncomfortable. And the sugar should be provided with its own spoon so that you don't have to use the wet teaspoon/eating spoon to get more sugar. The staff were sweet to us and I did appreciate that in comparison to other tea shops in the Bay, this was more affordable. A new restaurant should be given grace and a second chance! This review is not an admonishment, but a well-intentioned commentary on what needs work. I love high tea and would really love this spot to thrive! read more

By the Teashore is an absolute gem! The owner has done an amazing job transforming a charming older home into the perfect spot for high tea. Every detail was thoughtfully chosen, from the beautiful paint colors inside and out to the unique wall art, including a stunning display of vintage hand-held mirrors. The atmosphere is both elegant and welcoming, and you can tell so much care went into creating it. The food is outstanding. We loved all the tea sandwiches, especially the curried chicken, and the cucumber cream cheese and egg salad were fantastic too. The scones were wonderful (I had blueberry orange, and my daughter had Earl Grey and lemon), and the macarons were absolutely superb. The service was warm and attentive without ever being overbearing, and the prices were lower than we expected, an incredible value for such a special experience. This place is truly exceptional and well worth the drive if you're not nearby. Highly, highly recommend to anyone who loves high tea or just wants a delightful and memorable outing! read more

This is a charming 1900's home turned into a delightful tea shop. The room is painted a beautiful blue with a Victorian style wallpaper wainscoting topped by and a lacey white molded chair rail. The walls are sumptuously decorated with mirrors, prints and decorative plates. The room is full of period pieces tucked everywhere with two shelf units full of china, teapots and decor. The tables are set with a fun mix of teacups, saucers and plates. But the best part is the food. Most everything is made by the kitchen including their lemon curd and clotted cream. My Earl Grey and lemon scone was moist , crumbly and delicious. I had the curry chicken sandwich which was the best I've tasted. The ham, fig preserve, cheddar cheese and Dijon mustard sandwich was spicy and a treat. Their "I Hate Kale" salad with quinoa surprised me because I'm not a fan but it was really good. And their chocolate mousse dessert was thick and rich. The owner, Angela was welcoming and warm. And the staff was attentive. This is a small place with maybe 8 tables so be sure to make reservations. I saw more than one group having to be turned away. read more

Has potential but needs to get its footing. Sharing feedback/recommendations about tea service because I really want them to improve and succeed! Positives: Decor is adorable. Earl Grey Scone was delicious; egg salad and curry chicken sandwiches were a big portion and tasty. Accommodating owner. Kind servers. Room for improvement: - Website doesn't mention that tea service isn't served until noon but learned when we arrived at 11:30 am. Important information for people to know when making a reservation! Owner was accommodating and let us wait and linger over tea before ordering food so we could have tea service. - Asked if we wanted sugar and milk which didn't come. Had to ask for sugar and 5 packets of Splenda were brought to the table. After asking, a sugar bowl arrived. The amount of milk brought was maybe a tablespoon for 4 pots of tea. - Presentation of food. A 3-tiered tray per person was overkill and two of us had tiers that were almost bare (2 grapes and half a strawberry on one; 1 cookie and more fruit on another). Scones came separately. It's common at tea for at least 2 people's tea food to come, shared, on the same 3-tiered tray; also, if combined that way and including the scone, the fruit would go farther and there'd be more room on the table (and staff would have less to wash). Minuscule amount of dressing provided for lettuce; honestly, no need for bland salad; fruit was great. - We asked about lemon curd and jam Was told they ran out of lemon curd but would bring jam. After asking again, both lemon curd and jam arrived. No clotted cream. This is standard tea fare and listed on website. - Table linens too short and wrinkled. Suggest longer white tablecloth and either crisp overlay--or even ironed overlay with a piece of glass tabletop so don't have to wash/iron linens as often. Also puzzled to hear cook was at lunch at the end of the breakfast shift/start of lunch shift; seems like odd timing. Seems like tea should be offered all the time and the main focus at a tea place and you'd would want the cook present that entire time. Suggest offering/adding breakfast once the tea service is perfected. Will try again after they get their "sea legs". :) read more

Very warm and friendly atmosphere. Angela was awesome!! Went there to celebrate my wife's birthday. Tea was perfect!!! The staff paced everything perfectly for our experience.

I was in Half Moon Bay for my bachelorette party and was lucky enough to do a tea lunch here with a group of my friends. The owner of this shop is so lovely and kind - she took the time to explain how the items were made and checked in several times.

I waited a few weeks before going to By The Teashore in Half Moon Bay. Five stars because it was what I expected it to be and had a very enjoyable time. I made sure to read everything about the place before making my reservation (high tea is serves after 11:00) and checking out the menu. Being a tourist town going mid week is your best bet. The restaurant is very small and it's not a place you're going to pop in for a fast meal. It's not a super fancy high tea but the food was simple and fresh. The lavender cookie was the only thing I didn't like. I think having a little more dessert bites would have been nice but I do have a sweet tooth. The tables are small so again go mid week if you can. Our bill came to $80, that includes 20% the tip. Very nice place to chat and visit with friends. read more

I drove to Half Moon Bay just to try "By the Teashore" for tea on a Friday afternoon. My friend and I shared the fancy tea option with a pot of Irish breakfast tea: we chose the curried chicken sandwiches, ham sandwiches, mushroom soup, corn chowder, quinoa salad, and yummy scones!

My only suggestion would be to add more seasoning to the corn chowder (salt & pepper was not available on our table) Otherwise, it was all delicious! read more

This place is a GEM! I went with my mother and sister, and we all loved everything about it: charming ambiance, great service, a wonderful and welcoming hostess/owner who told us the story of how the tea room came to be. And the food was excellent. We all decided it was easily the best tea food we've ever had (and we've been to quite a few places). I'm used to tea sandwiches being teeny-tiny, but these were so generous ... we even took food home because we couldn't finish. The decor is delightful, with so many charming vintage things on the walls that I just wanted to wander around museum-style so I could see it all. (I loved the Great Gatsby-esque wallpaper in the powder room, too.) It was such a lovely afternoon and the perfect spot for a girls' outing...though honestly, I'm already thinking about taking my husband and sons there, because I know they'd love it too. read more

Since its opening 3 weeks ago and reading the critical Yelp reviews, I was honestly concerned about about my upcoming visit. I planned a "Girls Day Out" in Half Moon Bay to conclude with "Afternoon Tea" at "By the Teashore". Full disclosure--I am a perfectionist, and wanted a memorable experience for my good friends. I am happy to report that our experience was quite delightful! The food was thoughtfully prepared and delicious! After our party of 4 was seated next to the window, we decided to share two trays of "Mavericks" and to add more food if necessary. We wanted to sample everything and was pleased with our selections. Our adorable tea pots were brought out with care. Soon after, two trays of food arrived and we quickly dove in. This pic was taken after we realized we had forgotten to take a photo. We ordered each one of the sandwiches and EVERY sandwich was delicious! We enjoyed it so much we ordered three more! The curried chicken salad sandwich was our favorite, followed by the Roast Beef with Horseradish spread, Egg Salad and cucumber and cream cheese (in that order). The spring salad was refreshing, scones were moist and tasty (especially with the homemade clotted cream, lemon curd and Strawberry jam). Mini quiche was basic. The top of the tray was filled with a picturesque small "bowl", hand-made of blue sugar (that looks like hand blown glass), representing an ocean wave, sitting on top of a small mound of "sand" (aka finely chopped and refined graham crackers). In the bowl was a scoop of vanilla ice cream. It sat next to an edible flower and a sweet lavender shortbread cookie shaped like a crescent moon. While I agree with the other reviewers on the lack of table space (tea pots were quite large), I also realize it would be ridiculous to suggest changing at this point. We throughly enjoyed our experience and left with happy memories and fully bellies! In fact, one of the friends is looking forward to bringing her mom there in a couple of months. And I will definitely recommend to others! read more

As a guy, I don't get invited to many tea times so when I went to By The Teashore I wasn't sure what to expect. It was an experience that I'll never forget. From the friendly greeting from the owner Angela. To the outstanding service provided by the staff. Delivery of yummy treats, spectacular visual, delectables, and wide discernment of teas I was blown away. Highly recommended to anyone be they a group of friends. Or for a romantic date. This jam and half Moon Bay is not to be missed. I'd rate 10 stars if I could. read more

This is a cozy spot and for those who remember the English Rose (back in the day) it will bring good memories. The mismatched china, the eclectic decor, etc are all very charming. The service was incredibly slow - we got there at opening but waited over 30 minutes for our food to arrive. When it did (we shared one of the afternoon teas) it was delicious but very small portions. I would not mind except that, for the price, we should have had more. They seemed a bit disorganized; at first there was no staff then several servers, bus people arrived but it still seemed like they were short staffed and scattered. All in all, if you love authentic English afternoon tea this is a welcome new spot. Just wish we got more for the money and the wait. I am not sure I would make the drive over the hill again for this. read more
