Mchugh Tea

What a nice experience. The tea room is a charming little spot with some beautiful China. I want to buy it all! The sandwiches were a little on the simple side but they were good, as were the desserts. There was a great selection of teas, some of which I haven’t seen anywhere else. The scones were small but good. I do feel like there could have been more cream/jam given per table as I asked for more but it never came. The lunch food that others were ordering around us looked absolutely delicious. I will say that it was very loud inside the restaurant, it was hard to hear each other talking. But service was good and the pricing was right. Great little place!

The atmosphere was really nice, very relaxed and I love the big windows and no direct sun. The decor is fantastic, everything has so much thought put into it. I mean, even the hanging lights above the tables have teacups! The gift shop portion is really neat, if you have a tea geek, or are one yourself, you could definitely find something. Everything was super clean too, the bathrooms were well-kept and each table was neatly taken care of. The staff is great, they know their menus and teas very well and are super chill. Our waitress was very patient and nice, she was totally willing to start up mini conversations about tea cups or give you more information about tea. I even had a long, in-depth coversation with the manager (i wish i could remember his name) just about tea and the buissness, I really enjoyed it too. He could tell you the history of the store and some of thier decorations. You guys should really check out their website, it has the full menu and a whole bunch of other resources like donating old tea sets or purchasing more teas. The teas were awesome, the asortment and blends that they have are amazing. If you like a particular tea, you can buy a bag of it, the pricing of the tea is fair when you consider that a professional tea blender (not kidding, that dude actually took a class and everything) made that flavor. There is a wall in the entry that has a whole bunch of tea blends that you can smell, i didn't get a picture of it unfortunately, but its super cool. I got the Masala Chai (a lovely spice tea that tasted amazing and is probably my favorite), the Blood Orange (a citrus tea that didnt quite strike my fancy), and the black currant (an amazing floral black tea with a slight berry flavor and very rich in tone). Keep in mind that certain teas are sold seasonally, I really liked the Hojicha tea but they were going to stop making it because it didn't go over well with some people, so i bought a bag of it and it'll last me ages. One thing I really liked was the varietyin thier tea cups, each one is different in look, style, and era. It's a lot of fun to discuss eachothers cup and learn a bit about that time. The food was great, tasty and very filling. I got the chicken salad and it was good and little spicy, which I liked. I didn't try any of their sweets this time around but I'll leave another review when I do :) The pricing, to my cheapskate mind, is pretty big but it is fair when you think about all the effort and time it takes to make that experience really memorable and enjoyable. If you're looking for a place to just pick up tea, the teas are phenomenal so no shame there, you can but please give this place you're time. All I'll say is that it is a different experience. Thank you for reading! I hope that this helps. :)

Had a lovely time at my mother's dear friend's 90th birthday party. The tea room is absolutely beautiful. The apricot tea was delicious, and the scones, sandwiches, and desserts were scrumptious! The employees could not have been any nicer. 💕

This place exceeded my expectation. I will definitely be back. The tea was excellent, the food was good, and the atmosphere was pleasant. One thing that really stood out to me about McHugh Tea Room, the customer service was amazing. The staff was very nice. As a person of color, not one time did I feel out of place or unwelcome. That meant a lot to me. I will be back again!
