    Dessert

    My daughter has been talking about a tea party and fancy tea for a long time and asked if there was a place to go. I found this spot online and booked a reservation. They take reservations by email or you can call and leave a message. We got dressed up and headed to our fancy tea. The place is a very small store front with room for about 10-15. Its decorated beautifully with China and tea cups. The server was so friendly and accommodating and explained all the different teas they offered. We got the lunch special which came with scones, mini sandwiches, and dessert. Everything was so fresh and good. The scones were so moist and delicious. It was the best scones I've ever had. This is a great experience for fancy tea lovers or a celebration. We will definitely be coming back.

    I had never been to tea before and had recently heard of this spot in downtown Lincoln. My friend and I share a birthday and like to celebrate together. I reached out to make a reservation a few months before our birthday. The day of, we were greeted with the most delightful table setting. Our hostess did the tea was so kind and helpful telling us about the tea offerings and the food that was being served. The Tea Nook IS a nook with only a few tables. It is such a charming spot. We loved everything about our experience and agreed we will be celebrating here again next year.

    Afternoon high tea

    I wanted to take my mom to her first high tea and I am so happy that it was at The Tea Nook! The moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and kindness by the host and seated at such a cutely decorated table. The interior of this place was so cute and it felt really cozy since there were only a few tables. We chose our teas from a list of so many options, and decided on the creme brûlée and the orange cinnamon teas. Both were so good as the creme brûlée was sweetened with a subtle caramel taste and the orange cinnamon reminded me of fall! The treats that came with the high tea included a chicken sandwich, ham and cheese on a cranberry bread, egg quiches, scones, strawberry cake with ricotta cream, fruits, chocolate chip cookies and dark chocolate bites. Both my heart and stomach were so full from this wonderful experience and I can't wait for next time!

    This review is regarding the absolutely lovely experience I had with a cake order at this business. We requested a coconut cake and the delivery exceeded our expectations!! All the guest raved how delicious it was and the coconut flavor was the perfect balance. If you are looking for a decadent cake, filled with flavors from a scratch kitchen and a reflection of a home baked cake... this is it!! They even added flowers and candles to the cake for our dinner party. We will continue to do our part and shop and dine local! Check out these Gem in Downtown Lincoln.

    Took my granddaughter's to this very cute high tea establishment. Wonderful tea, food and service. Would recommend highly!

    I took my daughter to the tea nook to celebrate her 6th birthday and if I could give it more than 5 stars I would. The owner Dena (I hope that's how her name is spelt) was such a lovely host. She made us feel so welcome and was very attentive. We didn't feel rushed and every detail was so thought out. The tea and food was all wonderful. We will definitely be coming back again. Thank you so much!!

    We had a delightful high tea experience with friendly, attentive service and a delicious variety of food that satisfied all the dietary needs in our party. The lemon curd that came with the scones was so good that my vegan friend became vegetarian during our brunch -- because butter is vegetarian, right? We loved our experience so much that we booked another brunch!

    Hello, we just reserved for a Sat in Sept. we are so looking forward to celebrating our friends 30th bday. Question, where do we park and what is a recommended spot?

    We recommend parking on 5th Street or F Street. There’s a public parking lot at the corner of 6th and F Street as well. Walk up the alley to 5th Street if you park there. Cute gift shops in downtown Lincoln are a nice bonus to a tea time visit.

    I've been a big fan of North Fork Chai since learning some of our favorite coffee shops use their…read moreconcentrate. Since then I've ordered bottles from their website shipped to myself, and to others as gifts. BUT whenever I have the chance to visit their cafe in Newcastle I make a point to. It's right off the 80 and an easy stop if you're heading East that way from Sacramento. There's a large parking lot and the building is easy to find once you know what to look for- but if you're heading East on 80 it's a right off the exit and then almost an immediate left into a little business area- I've missed the turn more than once and had to turn around. The cafe itself is on the smaller side, but they have plenty of covered "outdoor" seating, I put it in quotations because a lot of the seating is very well covered even though it's still outdoors. Inside you'll find their handwritten menus posted on craft paper as well as printed menus by the cash register. They have coffee, matcha, chai, breakfast sandwiches, paninis, and pastries. Everything here is delicious and every time I've stopped in the staff has been so friendly. On my latest visit I bought a bottle of Chai concentrate, some cowboy candy, their house Chipotle sauce, a dirty pumpkin chai with a cold foam, and the NFCC panini and they through in a little pumpkin scone as a bonus. It's alays such a treat to stop in and even better when I get to take goodies home to make more food and drinks myself with their amazing ingredients. I also like that they highlight other local businesses by selling honey, spices, pottery and other items in their store. I'd highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area or passing through.

    I love this spot & wish it was closer. We've visited a couple of times & the flavors we've had here…read moreare so delightful & delicious. It's a small place where you can put in your order & browse some of the non-food merchandise they sell like branded clothing & cups. You might also find food & drinks like refrigerated veggie items, kombucha, different pantry items, nuts, honey, or frozen items. They offered samples for Thai Cucumber Salad on one visit. They also have their own line of seasonings & chai concentrate (more on this later). The line moves at a decent pace. There is a lot of seating found in an adjacent room to the side of the pick up window, a patio area with umbrellas, a bench, & other nearby tables. So far we've ordered THE BEST Dirty Chai Latte (both hot & iced) that I've ever had & an iced Lavender Latte (so freshly floral) to drink. We've also had a few scones--Blueberry Meyer Lemon (my absolute FAVE scone I've ever ordered from anywhere!!), Black Bottom, Gluten Free Blueberry, & Chocolate Chip with Chai Glaze (with our lucky timing being when a freshly made batch came out). All have been SO tasty with a tender interior. Note--they update the menu board when they run out of scone flavors or they become available again. We've experienced both just straightforward customer service, & a friendly & helpful staffer who answered our questions & didn't rush us even when it was busy. Back to their Chai Concentrate--We were so enamored with their latte that we bought a bottle. Then we had to go back to buy more bottles. They'll be a pantry staple from now on. We love the stuff so much! It's always joyful to experience a place & say something is the best I've ever had! Just yum!

I'd consider coming back. ---------- I came by around 9:30 AM on a Monday looking for a sweet drink after getting some steps in. It was quiet when I arrived, and there was plenty of space to sit and do some work. Signs along the way made it easy to find the entrance. The vibe inside was light, airy, and trendy. It felt like the kind of place where you could stay a while, especially with the free WiFi and relaxed atmosphere. I waited a while before ordering, but only because the barista was in the back washing something. They were the only person working, so I understood the delay. Once I placed my order, my berry chamomile bliss tea came out quickly. It had a nice fruity flavor and was refreshing. Overall, this is a solid coffee shop if you want to chill or get some work done. The service took a minute, but given the circumstances, I didn't mind. I'd be open to coming back.

I was surprised how there was almost no one here, but that can definitely make it perfect for those looking for a more quiet place to concentrate on what you're doing. There was one woman working, may have been the owner, who was kind, helpful and professional. I got a vanilla late and my husband got a tea - both tasted great. For food, I also ordered the caprese toast and my husband got the spicy chipotle panini. The toast was amazing! Again, there was only one person so it took a few minutes for the food but it was so worth it. Everything was freshly made. I saw her grab everything and cut a brand new tomato and mozzarella for my toast. I didn't taste my husband's panini but he quoted "this place has handcrafted artisan creations. Simple. Classy. Well done". So I think that means he really enjoyed it lol. Definitely give this place a try! Especially if you're a book worm like me.
