Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Winchester

Had such a beautiful afternoon here with my Mom - made even more special thanks to the wonderful hostess who truly went above and beyond. She was kind, thoughtful, and an absolute angel throughout our visit. The food was delicious, the ambiance charming, and the service genuinely made us feel welcome and cared for. It's rare to come across hospitality that feels this personal and sincere. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to create a lovely memory with loved ones.

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.

It was a truly wonderful experience and great alternative to hyper expensive afternoon tea options without stripping any of the niceties.
