Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Melrose

Best omelette in Boston! Delicious Nicoise salad. Perfectly cooked salmon. Thanks so much to Chef Mike and the great team in the kitchen. And we always complete the meal with the fabulous chocolate soufflé! Thank you!

This place is fantastic with very attentive and kind service. All of the food and tea was exceptional and will definitely be back!

Tea and food were delicious. Location is very convenient.

To preface, this is my third tea room that I have been to in Boston. I have been to Trifecta, the BPL, and also Jolie Tea Company in Salem, MA. From previewing pictures, I was not very impressed with the Rowes Wharf as the table setting and food looked a little lackluster compared to the other experiences I mentioned. However, now having been, I can absolutely understand why this is rated the best afternoon tea in the city- the food is DELICIOUS. I think my favorite out of all my tea experiences so far. Service was also very good and the noise level was very low when we went (2:30 on a Sunday). Ambiance was nice on the water and there is easy access outside to walk around after. I did think the tea selection was limited, however the server was excellent at describing each one and our entire party of 5 each liked our teas.

What a cute place! It would be a great place to come back for a birthday or celebration. My friend and I enjoyed our time together there.
