Tea Room
Step into the Secret Tea Room for a delightful escape! Indulge in an enchanting tea service at the historic Wisner House, where you can savor breathtaking views of the Arboretum’s stunning grounds. Experience the charm of Cream Tea on Wednesdays and treat yourself to the lavish Afternoon Tea on Saturdays and Sundays. Dates may vary throughout the year, so be sure to check our schedule!
Cream Tea offers a delightful selection of fine teas and infusions, perfectly paired with a tiered tray of freshly baked scones, delightful tea sandwiches, and a sweet surprise. For a truly luxurious experience, our Afternoon Tea elevates this experience with an additional tier of decadent desserts, all served alongside the same exquisite selection of teas.
Both tea services come with a complimentary glass of Prosecco, a refreshing Mimosa, or sparkling lemonade, adding a touch of sparkle to your afternoon.
