Chado Tea Room

The place is absolutely empty and the waiter has yet to return. The strawberries were rotten, the service was slow, the tea was not the best. I fee like I got bamboozled. The scone is more like a burnt Pillsberry biscuit. The tea tasted like it was one tea bag for the whole pot. 10/10 would not recommend

Overall, a very lovely experience, though a bit overpriced. The presentation of the food was excellent, though the taste itself was nothing to write home about if I’m being completely honest. I think it’s more about the vibes and ambience than anything else. Blanca was very cordial and attentive throughout the whole process, so I’d say the service was good.

If I could give 0 stars for ambiance, I would. I expected a tea house in the Japanese heritage museum to have more Japanese influence in the decor and ambiance. Instead it felt like a kitschy English style tea room. 1 star for quality of food, 2 stars given that it was clean and sanitary, and the service was fine and cordial… but given that this is a tea house, I would expect them to know how to properly brew tea at minimum. The tea was under brewed for both my and my husband’s teas— the Monkey picked oolong and Gyokuro. Their “most popular” tea as stated on the menu, the St. Marc, tasted like cough syrup rather than a “dance” between flowers as the menu suggests. The menu sounded so promisingly but execution fell flat. I could make better tea sandwiches at home. PASS, unbelievable that they could charge $30+ per person for this quality of offering.

This is an EXPERIENCE. Tea. Chocolates. Finger sandwiches. I was living like Mrs. Doubtfire AND loving EVERY minute of it. The passionfruit oolong tea was the best choice for me because I wanted 2 pots of it. And... they give you a parting gift (tea cup & saucer) when you order the Birthday service!

Such a wonderful place for afternoon tea! The venue is absolutely gorgeous with some seating outside in a nice area away from the city noise. The food was delicious. Everything was fresh and yummy. I especially enjoyed the chocolates. And, of course, the tea was amazing: flavorful, fragrant, and plenty. They have a great selection of teas, including herbal / decaf ones. I loved the fact they were pretty accommodating when we requested sandwiches to be swapped to vegetarian ones. Sandwiches were super delicious too!
