Nestled in the historic village of Long Grove, Gerri's Tea Room represents her roots and heritage as a native of Ireland. Opened in 2012, the tea room features a classic experience and introduction to the past time of afternoon tea in an elegant and charming setting.

The high tea is inspired by British classics – an artful array of finger sandwiches, raisin scones, and petite pastries – a menu that represents authenticity. Gerri and her hosts fill delicate antique tea cups with freshly brewed and strained tea from antique silver teapots in Victorian attire.

From ladies’ socials, birthdays and bridal showers to corporate events and wedding receptions, High Tea with Gerri accommodates all occasions, never compromising on quality or intimacy – even for large gatherings!

It was a proper English tea. We were not rushed during our service and and our server was very nice. Unfortunately, some of the sandwiches were a bit on the bland side, especially the egg salad. It was such a relaxing afternoon. We both agreed the tea was delicious!

Beautiful tea room complete with magnificent table settings. What a treat it is to enjoy the many different tea sandwiches and scones. This is a very special place that I’ve taken my granddaughter to a couple times. She especially loves the tomato soup served in a lovely demitasse butterfly cup.
