We had afternoon tea and it was absolutely amazing. We were greeted by a wonderful person dressed in costume that went with the theme, Hocus Pocus. It was my daughter’s birthday and the attendant sang an original birthday song just for my daughter. The food was fresh and delicious, the tea was perfect, so many choices. The pumpkin bisque was to die for, full of flavor with different textures and flavor notes. The inn itself was decorated for Halloween with lots of bits and bobbles to look at. This was an amazing experience!

Afternoon tea was an exquisite experience! We were treated so very well, the food was delicious, the decor was lovely. Their tea list is huge plus there is a wine list. The price is very reasonable also.

My friend and I had a wonderful time at the Silver Fountain Inn and Tea Parlor. The tea was lovely, and the food was delicious! I like to meet different friends there every month, because the theme and the menu change monthly and it's a great place to talk and catch up with our lives. I'm looking forward to returning in October and attending a Murder Mystery dinner this fall.

Rude. Small portions ( in terms of afternoon tea, not a meal. Literally microscopic) Beautiful Victorian house but incredibly dated, tacky furniture and decorations. For $38, you get ridiculously small portions...think a little tiny mini muffin or a "tart" around the size of a 50 cent piece. No place to put tea once steeped and had to ask for cream. If you're 75, you might think this was fun but for anyone else, especiallywith experience having real afternoon tea, don't waste your $$.

Tea at the Silver Fountain Inn Tea Parlour is a delightful way to dine. The food is excellent, the staff is friendly, helpful and unobtrusive, and the atmosphere is gracious and elegant. The Tea Parlour is located in a lovingly restored Victorian home that now functions as a B&B. Table settings are appropriate to the period, and there is a touch of whimsy in the decor. This is a place where one can step back in time to a more elegant and formal period in history. Highly recommend, especially to those who love history, romantic novels and the elegance of an earlier era.
