    I hosted my bridal shower here for 25 people and was given the Azalea room. The bridal shower package included tablescapes, multiple sandwich selections, 3 tea flavors, scones, and mini desserts. The packages are for 2.5 hour windows with 30 mins before and after to set/clean up. I was never given the included bride-to-be sash however everything else included in the package was provided! The staff was helpful when we could find them but stopped by for refills infrequently. I overall enjoyed my experience and would look to book my next tea-themed event here again!

    My second time here with my lady friend. This place is lovely. We both love tea. I would rather be serving her tea. I really need to get a tea service, I have a uniform lol. I believe we both had the Spring Tea which comes with a tower of goodies. Everything was wonderful. We really enjoyed ourselves. My friend said there's several rooms and can have many events. Guys, this is a nice place to take your lady that I know she will love

    I did not host a big event here, but this would be a great event venue! I was here with nine other girls to have afternoon tea together. Because there were more than 6 people, we had to place a $100 deposit. We also had to choose the same tea package for everyone. The event coordinator recommended the Spring Tea Luncheon Package, which was $34 per person. Then we got two tea pots of three different teas for the table. The total charge included a 15% gratuity. -The sandwiches were the favorite of the group. The scones were huge and hard to finish. The desserts were meh. -We enjoyed the beach blossom oolong and vanilla almond teas. The lobby is beautiful with a piano, a display of teacups and teapots. They even have hats and fascinators that you can wear to take photos. It was easy to plan. I feel like the event coordinator is very organized. I would host events here because of this major plus. Another great thing about Springfield is they have their own parking lot, and there is plenty of parking! Turn into the lot from Chapman. There are stairs to get to the second floor, but there is also an elevator. Credit card/Apple pay accepted. Bathroom available.

    What a FUN day at the tea house! From the yummy warm scones to the fabulous tea sandwiches - everything we ate was fantastic! The decor was so adorable, there was just a lightness about the place. We were not rushed with our tea and our server let us take our time trying everything. Can't wait to go back again soon!

    My sister and I enjoyed a cute little Galentine's date here on a Sunday morning. We had a reservation, but there was only one party alongside us at the time we were seated. They have 3 different options for Afternoon Tea which are the Spring Tea, Garden Tea, and Royal Tea options. We chose the Spring tea and quite enjoyed the sandwiches that included an avocado cream cheese one, caprese with pesto, chicken salad with sun dried cranberries, egg salad, and cucumber dill with cream cheese. They were all so tasty, but my favorite was the chicken salad with cranberries. It was the perfect mix of seasoning with the chicken and the cranberries added a nice touch of sweetness. I wanted more haha. The tier also included scones and desserts. I'm not usually a huge fan of scones, but these were so delicious. I believe they had raspberries in them and the additional fresh cream with jam on the side elevated the experience. Out of the desserts, my favorite was the tiramisu. We also got to choose a flavor of tea with our own pot. My sister enjoyed her peach blossom while I loved my earl grey. Overall, we had such a lovely time, staff were so friendly, attentive, and we'd love to return in the future with more family members!

    Ambience is as you would imagine. So cute and light and open. Once you get to the actual tea room it looks so cute. Our server was very sweet, always checking if we needed anything, always making sure our experience was grand. The food was almost too much, but my favorite was the scones. They were huge and warm and delicious!

    I recently planned a birthday party here and this place is absolutely beautiful. It was even more charming that I expected. It was my first time here so I was nervous, but the service was extremely kind and attentive. The booking coordinator was very thorough about explaining the packages and expectations. When we arrived to the venue, all the staff was friendly and sweet. We rarely had to ask for anything because they would consistently anticipate our needs and refill out tea. The tea selection was impressive - we chose the Jasmine Green tea, vanilla almond, and hibiscus raspberry and all were delicious. The desserts and sandwiches that were paired were also tasty. I would definitely come back and recommend coming here for afternoon tea or booking for a special occasion. The best part is there is free parking in the parking lot for all your guests!

    Bridal Suite Tea Room

    I have been here about 3 times, and overall I have enjoyed the tea experience! Today's visit was for a mom's valentine exchange and it was a lot of fun and I loved using the bridal suite for a private tea room experience! The teas were very delicate and nice. We got the traditional earl grey, raspberry hibiscus and Almond Coconut Macaroon. Loved the teas, especially the coconut macaroon; it has soft airy aftertaste. The food is comprised of different types of sandwiches, but it is very light, so if you are a big eater like myself, you might want to make plans to eat more later. My friend enjoyed the desserts as there is a variety to try from, you can see what suits your taste buds. As for the service, they tend to be quite busy, so you may need to be proactive on asking what you need. But, they will do their best to fulfill your requests. I enjoyed my time here fun for a girls tea time

    Cute place. I wish the rooftop patio was open but maybe it's bc it was January. Sandwiches were yummy, got too full to try the desserts. The peach blossom tea was my fav. Service was okay

    We called and made reservations to come to high tea on the Saturday morning of Memorial Day weekend. The tea room is upstairs and there was an elevator and ramp for accessibility. The room was bright and each teapot and teacup was so cute. We did the spring tea set and got teas with refills and several finger foods. The quality of the tea was great and the little foods were really good! It's a surprising amount of food and ended up being too much for us to finish so the workers provided boxes for us to take leftovers in. I enjoyed my experience here and would definitely come back. Don't be afraid to dress up!

    Tea pots filled with 2 flavored tea

    I was with a large group on a very busy Sunday. It seemed as if the whole place was full. We had a preselected menu by our organizer. 3 flavored teas were brought out first then the tea trays . Traditional tea sandwiches were provided, then scones and sweet treats. Everything was fresh and tasty. The scone was soft , tasty and lightly sweetened. The scones came with cream and jam. Sandwiches were tasty and filling. However since the place was booked we could only stay 90 minutes and not linger over tea and company. When making reservations check to see how long you can stay.

    Spacious tea salon is also an event venue that can accommodate large parties from several rooms. Tea service is served upstairs. Upon entering in the foyer area there are many hats and fascinators to borrow to wear during tea. There was mainly one staff she was busy running around tending to all the tables from taking orders and bringing out the food. Tea food is typical.

The only communication I received was asking where an item I rented (the projector/VIBE) was placed. I told them, they found it, and that was the end of it. Shortly after, Alex (the COO) emailed me stating that my security deposit would be returned by this weekend. It still hasn't been returned. About 4 days after receiving the email from Alex , Chloe texted me asking if I had received my deposit. I told her no and sent her Alex's email confirming the refund. 2.5 weeks after my event, she suddenly claimed that damages were found after my event. This raised immediate red flags. - The venue had cleaners come in right after my event, so they would've notified her of damages just like they did after her other events. So I don't see what's so difficult about showing me the cleaners claimed that the kitchen door was locked. Obviously, it wasn't if she can't provide proof. - Chloe herself said she would come in the following day to confirm the rented equipment was where I stated. So again, why weren't these issues brought up immediately if there was truly damages done to her venue during my event. - I had already contacted her the next day asking about camera footage, and she told me the cameras do not retain footage past a short period Despite all of this, 2.5 weeks after my event, I received this message: "After your event, our cleaning team reported a few issues... 1. The kitchen door was locked and a locksmith was called 2. A crack found on the wall 3. A broken door stopper" When I asked for video footage or proof, none was provided. Instead, I was sent a screen recording of text messages between Chloe and her cleaning staff. Her cleaning staff said these issues occurred at another event the following weekend after my event. Immediately, when I said thats not the date of my event she unsends the screen recorded message between her and her cleaners.... They are now claiming that I locked the kitchen door, requiring a locksmith, yet when I asked for proof, I received no response from Chloe and Alex. As of now, I am still waiting for my deposit. This entire experience feels like an attempt to retroactively justify withholding a deposit. The lack of transparency, delayed claims, and refusal to provide evidence is extremely concerning and unprofessional. If you value clear communication, integrity, and lawful business practices, I would strongly suggest booking elsewhere

There were walking paths but I still recommend closed toed shoes since it's a bit sandy. They had many benches throughout for resting or handing out and admiring nature. We spent about an hour here, but to be fair I'm not that into nature. I GOT A BUG BITE and it swelled and was super itchy. Sigh. I think someone who super loved nature or wanted to take their time to hang out could take 2-3 admiring all the plant life. My FAVORITE moments here was when we came across wildlife. My favorite were the rabbit, turtle, and crane. It's beautiful. Great spot to get some steps in and absorb some sunlight.

    This review was not written soon enough, but I can sum it up in just a few words: book The…read moreCharleston for your event. Just do it. We booked for a wedding on a very short timeline for a smallish group, and top to bottom, we had an amazing experience. They made planning so easy, from our amazing point of contact/coordinator Emily answering every silly question I had, to the digital planning offerings so we could make our own floor plans for the team. The owner Summer was also highly responsive when we needed to touch base. Day of, everything was so streamlined that we hardly had to lift a finger beyond getting our decorations out of the building. The staff was on top of every element and they were all so sweet. On top of that, EVERY SINGLE one of our guests commented on how gorgeous the venue is, with some family members excited to find a place for their own events. We booked a buffet style dinner and added the lighting package, the coordinator upgrade, cake cutting, coffee service, soft drinks, and signature cocktails for a cash bar. First of all, the food is phenomenal. It's easy to dismiss any sort of banquet service, especially a buffet style, as something somewhat less than a gourmet meal, but not here. Not by a long shot. EVERYTHING is good, from the meats and sides down to the bread (at one point in the evening one of our guests had a plate of about 10 rolls, which was completely understandable.) My husband is a snob about meat, especially steak, and basically cried at our tasting with how incredible it was. We got great feedback from our guests both the day of and afterward about how great the meal was. The other really standout add on was the cocktails. It's another thing that every single guest (who imbibed) commented on, telling us not just how good they were but also how they loved trying "the groom" vs "the bride" drinks. The Charleston takes its alcohol seriously as a craft, with these drinks being the most truly *crafted* cocktails I've had in a while. It added an amazing element for our guests that they really noticed. From the "executing our vision" end of planning, the coordinator upgrade was *invaluable.* Emily handled all of our decor setup and strike, including packing things. I overplanned tablescapes, decor, and timelines, which made her job easy, but she's such a pro that she's usually the one to handle such things. (As an aside, she took my concept and ran with it in ways I didn't think of, and I was so thrilled with her execution. Emily, I adore you and your creative brilliance.) The other item we are so glad we added for our vision of the day was the lighting package. It was the thing that took a gorgeous ballroom reception into what felt like a bespoke event, from our spotlighted entrance to the lighting on the floor for our first dance. There IS an add on package that covered both of these line items and more, but because we wanted to choose some of our own vendors, we opted for only the individual items. I love who we hired, but for simplicity's sake, the larger package would probably be much easier for a couple looking for a "set it and forget it" style of wedding planning. We loved our experience with The Charleston and I'd book our special day there a million times over. The building is gorgeous and with a rich history, but beyond that, it's so welcoming--not just the people but the vibe there. For us, there was never any other venue for our wedding than The Charleston, and I'll tell everyone who will listen how much we loved it. I know yall read these reviews, so to the team directly: thank you for everything. It was the day we both always wanted, and you all made it special. We are infinitely grateful.

    We felt extremely lucky to find The Charleston for our wedding last autumn.The restored historical…read morefixtures and art-deco elements gave the venue a unique feel. We got away with less extra decor. The main area for cocktail hour was cozy but not too small for our guest count of about 150 people. The venue had many chairs and leather sofas across 2 bars which allowed our guests to chat and lounge comfortably. There were TV screens that we used to project a picture slideshow, adding a personal touch. The spacious ceremony room on the top floor was full of natural lighting and elegant, and the ballroom for our reception was grand and accommodated dining and dancing. The Charleston also had a very large and comfortable bridal suite that we were able to get hair and makeup done in and use as storage the day-of. We received many compliments on the choice of venue from our guests. Most importantly, the staff at The Charleston were a pleasure to work with, and we were so happy to go with a local business. The owner, Summer, was very transparent with their pricing, and she always considered our special requests and worked with us to see what we could make happen. We had an outside vendor for catering, and they were able to tour the space months ahead of the wedding. On the day-of, they were able to use the facilities at The Charleston without issue. We primarily were in contact with Emily, and we also had her as our day-of coordinator. She answered our questions promptly and thoroughly, and she was easy to work with. Especially as we approached our big day, it was nerve-wracking to hand over the reins to Emily and our other vendors, but Emily collaborated with our vendors well, and she created a seamless day-of plan. On the wedding day, Emily took care of all the set-up of wedding activities and decor, checked in with the vendors, and actively assisted the bridal and groom's parties with everything we needed while getting ready at the venue. She really went above and beyond; we highly recommend her day-of coordinator services. We are so happy to have held our special day at The Charleston.

I love that you can provide your own catering, we had our family business cater the food for our event and that was nice because no other venues we looked at allowed that. Our wedding coordinator Katie put in so much work for our wedding and we are so grateful for everything she did for us. She gets things done! My best tip for someone looking to book is to be very organized and clear with every item you want if you are planning to bring your own decor, they are great and will get it done! But being organized will make things easier. The venue closes at 10pm, but we were able to book an area 12 minutes away at one of the bars in Downtown Fullerton. We had a good turnout of guests there for the After Party! We got so much compliments on our beautiful wedding and ceremony, and many compliments on the venue. Thank you Griffith house for being the perfect venue for us !
