Reviews for The Village Tea Room, Restaurant & Bake Shop in New Paltz, NY

Although reservations are recommended, I waited a very short time to be seated upstairs at a cozy table facing a window with a... magnificent tree outside. The appetizer I ordered was tasty and my waitress very attentive even though she had to run up anddown the stairs for my requests. Quaint place with a diverse menu. Loved it Read more

This place is very cool, definitely not the frilly and fancy tea houses Americans are used to, it's more like UK tea houses that... are more laid back and casual. The only reason I'm not giving it five stars is because the atmosphere was lacking a little bit.The table I was seated at was shaky and I had to shove and napkin under the leg to get it steady. Also the cutlery and dishesdon't always match and it's just little things like that that detract from the experience. But the food that I had was reallygood, I had the patè platter. Thier lemon scones are delicious and of course the tea was great. All the baked good lookeddelicious and I hope to go back before they close to taste some more. Read more

Came here for a some desserts, so got the honey bee cake and the salted caramel chocolate cake...(forgot the name). They were... pretty good; the honey bee one is a apricot jam cake and not very sweet so it was ????. However, the salted caramel cake was...a little too sweet for me, so get it if you like really sweets things... ????. The overall place was a nice; good for smallgatherings to enjoy some tea while chatting with friends. They have both inside and outside seats. Read more

Very friendly staff. Great food choices along with an exhaustive tea list. Reservation recommended. Closes early. I will... recommend choosing afternoon tea service with Prix fix Read more

Good bakery. Unfortunately we didn?t have time to have proper dinner, but sweets were amazing. Atmosphere is cozy, service is... great. I?m sure it?s gorgeous in the summer, coz they have seating outside. Added to my bucket list and would definitely comeback and check it out in the summer. Good luck ???? Read more
