My friend and I spent a lovely afternoon here yesterday. We enjoyed our tea and delicious treats outside in their beautiful garden. Excellent service from Veronica as she explained the menu choices and made us feel at home. We can't wait to go back to this little quaint oasis.

My family and I have frequented many tea rooms over the years. SpecialTea House is definitely at the top of our list. Service was gracious and helpful despite being almost full. The food is delicious. I not only will recommend it, but I’ve already made another reservation for next month.

This is by far one of the best experiences you will have! Every time I’m in Greenport, we come here for tea. The atmosphere inside and outside are perfect. The teas are exceptional…everything served for afternoon tea is so delicious. The staff has always been wonderful! You don’t want to miss this!

When my student is home from college we love to go to high tea. This is the 6th one we hv tried and it was our FAVORITE. Servers were lovely and didn’t rush us. Food was delicious esp the warm scones and cucumber sandwiches. I like that they had an iced tea option. I can’t wait to go back!

My friends and I had a wonderful high tea experience at this establishment. The tea, food, staff, and ambiance were all on point. I definitely recommend this place for an afternoon tea. Was well worth the drive out to Greenport.

I surprised my wife by bringing her to the SpecialTea House for Valentines Day. It was our first time there. The entire experience including the setting, staff and food were outstanding. My wife absolutely loved our afternoon tea. She’s already making plans to return.

Friendliest service ever! Erika was such an awesome host! Excellent freshly baked goods My favorite savory item was the chicken salad on pumpernickel bread The chocolate petit pot de crème was so good! Actually everything was delicious- great clotted cream and lemon curd! Perfect British high tea served in adorable porcelain cups by the fireplace What an enjoyable and special mother - daughter time we had! Thanks to the SpecialTea House

My friend and I spent an afternoon out east that concluded with afternoon tea at SpecialTea House. The cafe is so cute and we loved all the mismatched drinkware. The little sandwiches and scones were so delicious and the chocolate pot de creme was the icing on the cake. We were planning our next visit before we left the table.

Such a lovely place to spend a morning on Greenport. Our group of friends did the afternoon tea which came with your own pot of tea (huge selection!), homemade biscuits, finger sandwiches and a few little desserts. Staff was lovely and accommodating and the garden is an absolute dream. Will be back!

We had the most amazing time. No one went hungry. The portions were generous. The flavors were delicate and savory. The atmosphere was warm and nostalgic. We were introduced to new teas and tried about five flavors. So much fun!
