Reviews for The AubreyRose Tea Room in La Mesa, CA
I've been wanting to try Aubrey Rose for a while because I'd always walk by it. I've never been to a tea room before. I think... it's really cute for sure. They have a large tea selection and you get 2 pots of tea at a time. I like the chilled melon "soup"which was like sorbet or something like that. I also enjoyed the savory part of the tower. The cucumber sandwiches and thecheesy toast were great. The sweets though didn't really do it for me and maybe I just don't like that type of sweet. I tend tothink scones are dry but they do come with lemon curd and cream. Anyway, maybe tea isn't really my thing or just a once in a while thing but I still enjoyed the experience. The service was very attentive. Parking is pretty easy if you park in the largelot a street over. Read more
Excellent experience with my wife. My wife very much enjoys drinking afternoon tea so I decided to submit to her request and go... with her for a nice afternoon drink. We made reservations and the experience was quite top notch. They serve side dishes to gowith unlimited tea. You choose up to two tea options at a time and they bring a teapot with hot tea. Although, I don't care asmuch for tea as my wife the experience was good and the sides were tasty for ~$35/person. Would definitely go again andrecommend for folks that are interested in this type of setting. Read more
Loved it! They have such great ambience and wonderful employees. The tea was great, but the food was really good. We ordered... the gluten-free tea and I feel like it looked better than the regular foods. Read more

Celebrated our daughters 5th birthday here, and to add-it was our first ever experience to have some afternoon tea together with... our invited guests. I must say it was the most pleasant experience I have had from beginning till the end! Tea was delicious aswell as the course that were served, staffs were very helpful, hands on, very polite, sweet, and just AMAZING! Renda, who is ourserver was BEYOND AMAZING! Our guest was so pleased with the place, staff, and the ambience. After my daughters par-tea I wasable to have a little more time to drink some tea, relax, and just enjoy some unwinding; LOVED IT! I just can?t say much morepleasing review about our experience, but rather I HIGHLY suggest the AUBREY ROSE TEA ROOM! I, together with my kids and maybewith my fellow friends and family will definitely be returning! Thank you for the best experience! Read more
An absolutely adorable spot. I loved this experience so much. The teas are varied and understandably delicious, and each item on... the snack tray was made with obvious care and high quality ingredients and it filled me up for the most part. The pumpkin sconewith the butter was insanely good. This place does require reservations, so it is perfect for something like a birthday lunchdate. Read more

Went for my best friend's birthday. Wonderful atmosphere. Our server was also very attentive even with how busy they were as... this place is open limited days so they are bustling; especially with parties. The servers also don't use pens and pads oranything past their own memory so hats off to them. I could never. We started off with tea, the house blend. Very nice butthen I moved to their peaches and cream blend and I swear if you like the quaker oats peaches and cream oatmeal packets you willLOVE this tea. Especially when you add cream and sugar to it. I also had a tea that tasted exactly like an Almond Joy... and itwas pleasant. I actually hate coconut as a flavor, but it wasn't overpowering. It was chocolaty and tropical and very nice. Ialso had an earl grey that I cannot recall I think it had "blue" in the name it was also wonderful. Our starter was acantaloupe soup that was cold and so so nice. I hate cantaloupe but it was perfect especially since the day was warm. It alsocame with a tea sandwich that was delicious too. Our tea tower had savory sandwiches on the bottom, scones, curd and cream inthe middle and petite desserts on top. My favorites were the cucumber sandwich and the crusty bread with green beans and cheeseon it. The scone was very flavorful and they have a wonderful lemon curd! Very bright and tart. Lastly I did enjoy theshortbread cookie with the peanut butter frosting on it. I will say since it was a tea, it's all small portions so if you havea Big appetite you will be hungry very soon after, but if you fill up on the unlimited tea you'll be alright. :) Will visithere again!
