Cream Tea

Wednesday, July 10 @ 11:30 am - 2:30 pm

Fancy Teaware

You are invited to enjoy an enchanting Cream Tea in historic Wisner House overlooking the Arboretum’s beautiful grounds. The Secret Tea Room takes particular pride in its collection of chinaware, which wonderfully complements the Victorian style of Wisner House.

Upon arrival, you will be offered a menu of fine teas and infusions. Your choice of tea will be brewed to perfection and served along with freshly baked scones (from the Wisner House kitchen), jam, homemade clotted cream, scrumptious baguette tea sandwiches, and divine flourless chocolate cake for dessert. About midway through the service, enjoy a complimentary glass of Prosecco or sparkling lemonade. We hope you will join us!
