CULINARY SPECIALTIES: lighter than air 'angels wings' scones, quiche, tea bread, homemade desserts UNIQUE ASPECTS: a step back to yesteryear complete with 'dress-up corner' OWNED BY: Nancy McCrary PRICE: $15.95 for full tea UPDATED: October 2008 REVIEWED: October 2008 Tea Room Review The owners and staff are as gracious as can be, even when under fire... literally as I nearly sent the place up in flames when an article I was reading about the tea room came in contact with my teapot warmer candle ... I blamed the homemade tea bread which diverted my attention with its yummy softness. While I could wax effusive over Cobblestone's visual and palletable treats, I will refrain as further details will be included in Nov '08's SpecialTea Feature article. Suffice it say the food is great, the presentation witty, dainty and detailed, and I loved my time at Cobblestone Cottage.... it was well worth the 125 mile drive to get there... check out all the photos I took |
