This is a lovely cafe with delicious scones, tea and REAL clotted cream. And they don't skimp on that which I appreciate. The outdoor seating is lovely and pretty, with gorgeous sun umbrellas, beautiful cups, saucers and teapots and trays. The black sesame scone and jalapeno scone were my fave. I would love it if they had a plain scone as an option, especially to go with the sweet jam and cream.

This is a charming afternoon tea spot in Montrose! More people need to come here and give them business. My friend and I had the tea service with sandwiches (gluten-free for me and regular for her). I had the vegan and gluten-free blueberry ginger and coconut passion fruit scones and they were amazingly delicious! All of the staff were super friendly and accommodating and you can prepay when you reserve on open table so all you need to do is come by and enjoy!

I took my two granddaughters to Sugarbird (age 13 & 9) for the 9 year old's birthday treat. We had done teas at my house in the past & I wanted to have them see what a real tea was like. The food was good & I liked that you could have hot or iced tea as the weather was very warm. The staff was very nice & even brought a birthday scone to the table for my grandaughter. My only complaint is that the seating is outdoors & there is a busy street nearby & so there was moderate traffic noise. All in all a fun time was had by us all!
