No one does tea-time like Medford's Special Teas Victorian Tea Room. Tea seekers have the option of being seated outside on the comfy porch, or in the main dining area inside the resplendent house. The main dining room is decorated with lace curtains, antique furniture and several shelves of antique tea cups and teapots. Each lace-draped table is adorned with flowers, vintage tea cups, trivets, authentic silverware and delicate place settings. Born in Ireland, Carlson opened the tea room four years ago when she realized there weren't many places in South Jersey offering tea time.
Tea is about relaxing an enjoyable experience.
It's not like stopping at a convenience store for a cup of coffee and go. The menu consists of 30 varieties of loose teas, quiche, pastries, baked brie, tea sandwiches and more. The menu as well as the dining experience includes children. Upstairs, there is a special tea room for birthday parties. Young girls can dress up in vintage clothing for a tea party complete with ettiquette training, freshly-brewed tea and finger sandwiches.
