A great experience, once I figured out how to get in! The shop has multiple entrances, and I think the one that opened was the side closer to the rocking chair. There are multiple tables for tea, so people are seated by their party size. The decorations are beautiful, and something to see everywhere you look. You have multiple teas to pick from, and it appears in a kettle as though by magic. The tea treats are served in a classic three tiered tray, and clotted cream and fruit preserves on the side. There's something for everyone - my favorites were the tiny scones. The hostess was really nice and attentive, even though parties were in two rooms. It was a great experience and on their social media they post their new decorating themes and special events. Seatinga are late morning and afternoon, you need to reserve online. read more

Take Tea an Afternoon Tea House located in Avon. I couldn't believe I haven't been here sooner. There is an abundant space for parking on either side. It is recommended to arrive prompt. We had the pleasure of being hosted by Nan. She told us then that she had recently listed her business for sale. I had heard that the business is now under new ownership and Nan will be staying on for the short term. We were provided sparkling juice and we had a choice of tea from an abundant of selections. I loved that each person had a stone trivet with Celtic designs for each's teapot. A 3-tiered tray was served for 2 persons. It came with pudding, cookies and chocolate, scones and an assortment of tea sandwiches. Nan also provided dairy free options! We mentioned on reservation that our party included dairy free persons. She most certainly delivered! Everything was great! We had the room to ourselves. She said she books the place in the way she wanted to have it. She was still conscientious of COVID guidelines and wouldn't pair another party close to another even though she could. She's so thoughtful! Everything tasted delicious. She regularly checked on us and even spent time to talk with us. I think business owners like her are what set business apart from others. So happy to have been able to make the visit while she owned it and I am looking forward to the legacy she leaves behind with the new owners. Hoping to visit again soon! read more

This place doesn't disappoint! They are open Thursday-Sunday and there are only two time slots each day that they take reservations for. 11 am and 2 pm. It is a two hour experience and it's such a fun time. They only open the door just a couple minutes before your reservation because they are making everything fresh. You are led through beautifully decorated rooms and seated at very comfortable chairs and tables. The flat fee includes a bottom less tea of your choice and they bring out all kinds of sweet and savory things to enjoy! It was worth the money! Our servers were amazing as well! Food was fresh and delicious read more

Wonderful little shop and a great selection of teas. The owner is a very pleasant woman. The scones were out of this world! She should make them available for sale. My friends and I will be back read more

Nann runs a beautiful tea shop! Tea is by appointment only, which is easy to reserve online. When reserving, it's important to note any food allergies/preferences at that time. I also asked for seating that could accommodate wide hips and was respectfully and easily accommodated. The service itself is wonderful. The menu is chef's choice and everything is tasty. The tea is bottomless during the 2-hour service. It's so wonderful that I've booked it 3 times in 3 months. You won't regret it! read more

Why wait for a special occasion to enjoy this lovely afternoon tea experience. This experience is by reservation only. Nan was a delightful hostess and so friendly. Love her attention to detail. Our party had specific request and she did not disappoint. We had such a great experience in such a cozy and inviting environment. Tea is served at 2 different time frames- 11-1 or 2-4. I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of tea options available from both caffeinated and non caffeinated. Our experience was top notch and reminded me of my afternoon tea experience in England. We definitely will come again in the future. read more

My husband booked this as a Valentine's Day gift and it was an amazing experience. Great customer service by all staff - attentive, knowledgeable, efficient. There were tiny bites with a sparkling cider to get our reservation started. Tea list was extensive!! We enjoyed our picks of blends offered. The food was adorable and proportions were perfect. It was nice to have the two hour reservation so we didn't feel rushed and could enjoy the ambiance. Will definitely be back! Highly recommend! read more

Take Tea - Attention to detail! adorable table setting for our tea time reservation - Tea Rooms Near Me - Avon, Connecticut

Apparently they only take reservations but you won't know that until you show up. For a tea room it lacks ambiance and tables are close together. read more

The service from start to finish was far superior to other tea spots I have enjoyed. The ambiance is elegant and refined. Attention to detail is spot-on. From the decor to the deserts, to the staff, and beyond, I can only say the experience was flawless. Thank you for such a great time. I'll return soon! read more

Went for lovely early afternoon tea. The service was good and really appreciated when the owner was able to come to the table to share where the food came from and more about the teas we were drinking. The ambiance is truly lovely and relaxing. Hopefully the mask to the table only can go away soon (Covid) and more info about the process when reserving would be helpful. They only open five minutes before your reservation only time but we never felt rushed. The food was excellent with a great variety given to us. It comes all at once not in stages. Your individual bottomless tea pot comes out hot and is a really nice set up. You can buy teas for home too! read more

We visited with a group of 5 for a birthday tea - and we loved it! We honestly didn't know what to expect, but once we were seated, our tea orders were taken -- there's quite a selection, and delightful finger foods were delivered at a regular cadence. It was relaxing, inviting, and just an all around great spot to get together and drink tea! We loved it. read more

Take Tea - Tea Rooms Near Me - Avon, Connecticut

Very disappointing. While the tea was good, the food was very lackluster, lacking flavor and limited in content. The brownie pastry was dry. Also a lack of attention by the staff, maybe engage with the customers more, explain the differences in the teas. One thing for sure, ease up on the restrictions i.e come in with mask only to sit down and immediately take it off. Unfortunately it's a nice idea but with limited seatings and the lack of appeal of the foods it seems a long shot for them to make it. read more

I found the owner of this tearoom rather unwelcoming. I and my elderly mother arrived just few minutes before our booking to a locked door and were only begrudgingly allowed to use the rest room. While there was enough food everything had a very stingy measured feel to it. I get that there are specific number of sandwiches/pastries etc. but even the sugar cubes were counted and I feared being yelled at again if i asked for more. read more

It's worth at least 1 visit. They don't oversteep the tea or make it bitter. The tea, sandwiches, and biscuits were delicious. The atmosphere was very relaxing. They were able to accommodate my uncommon food allergy, which I know isn't easy. They were having a tough day when we visited and the hostess came across a bit brusque a time or two, but not bad enough to ruin the experience. We would like to visit again if in the area again. read more

My friend and I had a lovely afternoon tea here. The decor is lovely - very British and it was decked out for Christmas. The owner was friendly and chatted with us a few times. All the food was explained when it came to the table. There is a large variety of tea to choose from and refills are available and included in the price. The tea itself is delicious. The food is traditional for English tea, consisting mostly of a variety of finger sandwiches and baked goods. Everything except the bread is made in house and tasty. The scones are worth particular mention as they were excellent. It was a charming and relaxing experience. We will be back. read more

My four daughters and I just spent a lovely two hours in this comfortable tea room. The service was attentive and friendly. We pleasantly struggled over our tea selections because of the number of varieties and flavors offered and very much enjoyed the selection of treats from the kitchen. I highly recommend this local tea room!!! Overall, a wonderful afternoon.....we will be back for sure!! read more

This is the PERFECT place to go with a girlfriend. The atmosphere is comfortable, warm and inviting. The tea perfectly brewed (and I should know. I brew my own tea daily). The food is delicious and so abundant that we took the leftovers home in a cute little box. If you want an authentic "High Tea" experience come to Take Tea. I plan to come back soon with another girlfriend. read more

A charming delightful delicious afternoon with personal attention... an authentic high tea experience!
