What do our customers really enjoy at the Tea Room? We ran numbers from the past several months and some of the results were quite surprising. We knew Scones were popular but not this popular! We regularly offer Blueberry, Cranberry and Apple Cinnamon but Pumpkin will be back in the Fall!
The To-Go numbers reflect the enormous popularity of our $1 Lemonade and Iced Tea available all summer long. This is our 16 ounce version available only as a take-out option. Selections include the Iced Tea of the Day, Strawberry Lemonade, Tea & Lemonade and regular Lemonade. All our made fresh, without mixes or powders.
We introduced Petite Tea in May. Already it has taken over the #2 slot with 25% of all orders. Afternoon Tea offers Tea Sandwiches & Scones. Tea Deluxe includes Tea Sandwiches & Dessert. Petite Tea is our mini version of the 3-tier service - 4 tea sandwiches, a petite scone with cream & preserves, and two mini desserts. A pot of Tea is included in every option.
Come and visit us! We're in Tarrytown, New York and open 7 days. We offer over 150 types of the finest loose leaf Teas. If you're not able to visit in person, spend a few minutes online and you're sure to find a tea you love.
Monday - Friday: 9:30am to 5pm
Saturday/Sunday: 11am to 6pm
Fun Events
As the year unfolds, we keep pace with the calendar and match our festivities to the occasion. We offer our special St. Valentine's tea on February 14, we celebrate St. Patrick's Day with a 'Green' menu and Irish specialties. Irish Breakfast is on prominent display during March. Our biggest day of the year is, of course, our Mother's Day Special Afternoon Tea service. We love that day and evidently, our patrons do too. Before the official holiday season comes our Anniversary in November. We partner with our local Food Pantry to hold a fundraiser at about the same time.
Catering, Tea Tastings and Parties
Because we are a small Tea house, private parties always pose a dilemma. If we close the restaurant, we inconvenience our regular patrons; if we don't offer our Tea Room for parties, we disappoint those who want to celebrate at our establishment. We've tried to find a middle path by offering Saturdays from 4 to 6 pm during the summer as our party slot.
Catering orders, however, are no problem and have increased ten-fold in the past several years. We offer garnished, plated trays of our great food and all you have to do is invite your guests. We provide sandwiches, sweets, desserts, salads and even tea. Please consult our Catering Menu for details and we're always glad to customize a selection for you.
Bringing the Party to You
We are always happy to come to you. We can offer a simple Tea Lecture or a full-blown Tea Tasting with Refreshments. We've gone to libraries, corporate establishments, educational institutions and even home parties. It's a fun way to get together with people and spread the word about Tea, the most popular beverage in the world, second only to water. Contact us for rates at events@silvertipstea.com.
