I went with several ladies for a wonderful tea and spent a few hours catching up in things magical and mundane. Afterwards, the owners invited us outside to experience some of the older outbuildings [the shop is on The Historic Tate Farm]. We sat in the shaded garden and loved on their uncommonly friendly cats and played fetch with their wildly enthusiastic retriever. It’s hard to imagine a more welcoming pair than the owners of the Cross and Bluebird Tea shop. If you are a lover of tea, I hope you will seek out and enjoy this shop. There are several courses served, including a seasonal salad and soup. The tea sandwiches include several savory items [generally missing from the experience]. Get out and support this great local business.
