Comments: The property was built in the mid 1800's and has all the charm of an antebellum residence. The new owners run a bed and breakfast here and also have a restaurant and wine bar. They have just begun to offer afternoon teas. My guests and I were served tea in one of the main dining rooms. It was elegantly decorated with beautiful fabrics and floral arrangements. A large selection of teas was offered and each guest had their own teapot placed on a heated warmer. Sweets and savories were provided, followed by strawberry sorbet and dessert. The food was not only delicious, but very filling as well. The service was also exceptional. The teas served were available for purchase. The owner also informed us it is possible to request an outdoor tea on the patio, weather permitting. I can't wait to return and  experience another pleasurable afternoon. I have had tea at several establishments in Louisville and California and this is definitely one of my favorites! Do try it!

Comments: I enjoy going to tearooms, and appreciate the uniqueness of each. However, I do have certain expectations. I expect that my server, though new, will have had SOME sort of training in serving tea. I do NOT expect to have to wait over 30 minutes for my first pot of tea when I have a reservation. The scones were large and good, but the one small pat of butter - no cream, jam, etc .- they were served with was not sufficient. When I asked for more, it was frozen. The rest of the food was merely acceptable. The cubed sugar on the table had no serving tongs. When brought to the server's attention, the tongs brought out belonged in a kitchen, not in a tearoom! I understand this is a new venture, and want ALL tearooms to be successful (there can never be too many opportunities to enjoy tea, right?!). However, there was a decided lack of interest from the management regarding our concerns. The room the tea was served in was really lovely.

There were cookies, chocolate cups w/ strawberry chream & too many more wonderful things to name. Last came the English Garden Bread Pudding with a sauce that made my mouth water.

Comments: The afternoon of our tea was prior to a snowstorm. People were frantically cancelling appointments and rushing to get home. Susan and the people at the tea room continued to be gracious and made my friend and I feel warm and insulated from all the outside hubbub. The server knew when to serve -- when to talk, instruct, replenish. The soup (tomato basil) was creamy and delicious and I had many "favorite" sweets and savories. The dessert was a scumptious brownie/ice cream concoction. All was served on lovely depression glass, another favorite of mine. As it began to snow, we spent another half hour in the extensive gift shop, chatting with Susan, and purchasing enough to make her afternoon tea with just the two of us worthwhile, I hope. I felt a tiny bit guilty having kept them at the tearoom while the streets collected slippery snow, but the experience was enjoyable.

Comments: I recently attended afternoon tea at Candleberry with my mother and sister. I had been before, and was very impressed, but my last experience left a little something to be desired. We were seated next to a larger party of 8-10 guests, even though the rest of the tea shop was empty. As more patrons entered, they were seated in the same area. Consequently, we all had to talk fairly loud to be heard over the din. There appeared to be only one waitress on staff, and she seemed to linger an unnecessarily long time at the table of the larger group, though she was quite charming and kind when she made her way to us. They didn't have that many varieties of tea, 8-10, and  were out of the one I ordered. The scone was delicious, but very small, and came with fruit in it - not a big hit for one of my group who prefers hers plain. No clotted cream accompanied the scone (one of my pet peeves) and when we requested it, we were brought a dish of commercial whipped cream. The soup course was very good - a rich, tomato basil. In my opinion, that was the highlight of the tea. The selections on the three-tiered sandwich tray were good, but unremarkable, save for strawberries that were filled with a sweet white cream. There was a wide selection of desserts, but the dessert portion that comes with the tea is much smaller than the one that you get when you order dessert on its own. The tea, I thought, was overpriced at almost $19, and it seemed that the gratuity was automatically added in, even for a party of only 3, which is something I find irksome. I like to be able to tip according to what I feel the service deserves and, when it comes to going to tea, service is paramount. Another thing that kind of irked me was that the teapots for our table weren't kept -at- our table. For the most part, we had to rely on our waitress to pour. It would have been a nice touch had she always been right nearby with a refill, but as it was, it was a little frustrating. All in all, I've had better teas, and better teas at Candleberry in particular... another in my party, who is a more frequent customer than I am, agreed with that assessment. I would go back, because the atmosphere is quite nice, but I wouldn't go back for tea. I didn't think that $19 per person, before tax and tip, was a fair price for what we were given, but their sandwich prices are probably more reasonable and a better value.

I like all the courses: cold cantaloupe soup, asiago scone with tomato chutney and/or herbed butter; delicious mixed green salad with baked pear with blue cheese. The finger sandwiches were divine: cucumber, roasted red pepper, egg salad with poppy seeds. The desserts were fantastic: key lime pie, some type of scrumptious bread pudding with vanilla sauce and to-die-for chocolate truffles. Perfect tea. I would highly reccomend to all!

Comments: The food is absolutely delicious, particularly the sumptuous and seasonally appropriate soup that is served at the start of the meal and the brown sugar streusel scone was to die for. My daughter and I were somewhat disappointed with the tea however. There was only one selection of black tea offered and when we each asked for green tea, they told us that we would have to share one small pot as that was all they had. The green tea that they served us was not actually green tea, but tasted very much like lapsang souchong. So if you are a tea afficionado, you may be disappointed at the tea selection. Go for the food though, the tea takes a back seat here.

Tea: Good.  Food: Excellent.  Service: Good.  Appearance: Excellent.
Comments: There are both traditional elements, as well as unique features, that characterize Greentree's tea service. On the traditional side, Greentree offers tea service in a lovingly restored bungalow-style house from the early 1900's, and set in historic downtown Lexington. Tables are beautifully set with linens and china, and tea is poured from silver teapots. There are several courses of food offered during tea, and it's all quite delicious. What is unique is its offering of only one tea selection for all guests. During my visit, Darjeeling was the tea du jour. Additionally, no individual teapot is set at your table. Instead, a waiter circulates with a silver teapot to fill empty teacups. Teatime is offered during two seatings, at either 3 o'clock or ... nontraditionally ... at noon. The first 2 courses are served to you at your table (a heavenly fruit soup and quiche, followed by a well-made scone with cream and jam). But then you must serve yourself for the final courses of tea sandwiches and pastries from a centrally-located buffet table. Overall, the emphasis is on the food and the setting....not the tea. However, within its unique venue, Greentree offers a very pleasant experience.
Would you go back? Hope so, but we don't live nearby.

Then sandwiches and desserts were on the buffet. Service was top of the line. The teacup was always filled with very good and hot Darjeeling tea. Reservations are needed as they only have one seating for lunch at 12noon. Tea is served on Saturdays at 3pm. I was told that the tea schedule changes in December serving tea more often.

I have to admit some disappointment upon discovering that the emphasis is definitely on the menu, rather than the tea itself.

Comments: The Greentree has created a lovely use for a historic downtown Lexington home. The shop combines a classy and elegant tea room with a fine china store. The tea selection was not nearly as impressive as I expected, but the food options were lovely. The menu has been changing monthly I believe, and everything I had and everything I've heard about since sounds wonderful. For example, the tea shop had a St. Patrick's Day theme in March with Irish soda bread. Greentree is the kind of place I wish I could go monthly. It is leisurely and not inexpensive. However, it is a lovely treat and the perfect light lunch. The silverware and china are particularly impressive.

Tea: Excellent.  Food: Excellent. Service: Excellent.  Appearance: Excellent.
Comments: This tea room is located inside of a high-end shop and is a little secret unknown to many Louisville folks. They offer a new menu every month and a selection of 5 different teas from Elmwood or White Linen Tea Co. that change monthly. Afternoon Tea comes with soup course, scone and curde/cream course, savory (3 types) and sweet (2 types) tray, and  dessert. The room is small but tastefully decorated. When it is full, it can get a bit loud but not so loud that you cannot enjoy the company at your table. I have been to several teas here and each time I bring a new friend, La Tea Da gets a new regular. The servers pour individual cups of tea rather than leaving a pot at the table (they will if you ask) and that they do not sell any of the tea that is served. I have heard rumors of expansion in the near future which I hope are true. La Tea Da has the potential to be a top notch establishment if given some elbow room.

Comments: This was my first experience with an actual Tea Room and I loved every moment. The food was phenomenal and the service exceptional. I took my mother-in-law and she was extremely impressed as well. The food showed great sophistication and flavor and the selection of tea was outstanding. I can't wait to go back. I drove from Bardstown to Vine Grove for the experience and would do it again in a heart beat.

Comments: I was looking for somewhere special to take my departing supervisor ... a wonderful person. This Tea Room was a perfect choice. Not only was the tea menu remarkably extensive, but the service was attentive and cordial. Marisa took on the challenge of our honoree's strict dietary issues with such care. She prepared her a lovely plate of very special delicacies that were supurb. The ambiance is lovely, the tea marvelous, and the owners delightful.

Comments: Going to Gracefully Yours was like taking a mini-vacation. The victorian decor and ambiance were the perfect backdrop for this excellent tea experience. The owner/hosts were positive, warm and charming. As for the food, honestly, it was difficult to choose what our favorite item was because each of them were sumptuous, both savories and sweets. Their tea list read like a wine list with very descriptive information on each selection. Even though the tearoom welcomes you to try many different varieties of tea as part of high [sic] tea, it would take many visits to try them all. I encourage you strongly to do just that. As an added bonus, their gift shop tempts you with a wonderful assortment of items. Personally, I chose a bracelet with three charms - a teapot, a teacup & spoon, and a heart, plus a bag of a new favorite tea. Hands down, it is the best tea room that I've ever had the pleasure to enjoy! You have to go there!

Comments: My partner and I have visited this charming tea house several times now -- it is our favorite place for birthdays and special events. The food and tea are extraordinary, and the ambiance is lovely. The owners/servers are charming and friendly, and are extremely willing (with a little lead time) to accommodate food allergies/preferences. I have recommended this place to everyone!
