Best Afternoon Tea Restaurants in Arts District

Our server, Yasmine, was absolutely phenomenal. My friend and I look forward to tea at the Huntington Library every time, but it was made significantly better having Yasmine. She was so attentive and personable; it felt like she was celebrating with us. The food was delicious! Some standouts were the Lamb sandwich, the cucumber, and the truffle mushroom (an accommodation for my friend’s shellfish allergy). We’ve tried many teas across LA, but the Huntington’s is #1.

Wonderful afternoon tea at a posh hotel in Pasadena. Sandwiches and sweet treats were magnificent. Our server Margarita was so nice and knowledge about the teas being served. A definite nice birthday splurge. Everything was just lovely.

It was a very interesting experience for the afternoon tea. I put down my diet request which was gluten free, no diary, no nuts and sugar. The manager and the kitchen made the special menu just for me and everything was very tasty. I really appreciated their thoughtful hospitality and the professionist. A very elegant and enjoyable afternoon tea.

Very good afternoon tea without breaking the bank. It was a good time as well, as my friend and I didn't have to encounter loud and large group parties that day. Thank you for a good afternoon tea experience.

food was not as good as it normally is… a bit bland
