ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC afternoon tea! I'm married to a Brit and even he agreed this is the most authentic tea we've had in the Triangle and we've been to MANY. Can't say enough great things about Julia' who made everything from SCRATCH! They served 5 savories, 5 sweets and 2 rotating flavors of scones.
Savories: sausage roll (homemade pastry was DIVINE), cheese phyllo puffs, spanakopita, pimento phyllo cups w pepper jelly and egg bites. Scones: plain and a london fog white chocolate chip - the texture was just like my Mother-In-Laws! Scones are tricky - they often are too dense or don't rise. These were the perfect texture! I used lemon curd and clotted cream w/ London Fog and raspberry jam and clotted cream w/ plain. The sweets were also incredible: french macarons, opera cake, lemon bars, madelines and a caramel custard praline tart. The tea was Harney in Sons in these gorgeous vintage mismatched teapots with a proper tea strainer. 3-min hour glasses on the table for a perfectly brewed pot. Sugar bowls with brown sugar cubes with little tongs. Highly recommend the Victorian London fog tea which had mild hints of bergamot with notes of lavender and vanilla and I am not even an Earl Grey person. We added prosecco to have it be a Tea Royale. Julia was also super accommodating for my daughters (7 & 8) and altered a few things to make it more kid friendly (they had hot cocoa). So worth the drive to Mebane for this experience not to mention the house and grounds itself are quaint and lovely. We will absolutely be back!
