Reviews for Tea List in Davis, CA
Nice atmosphere, but do not come here if you have a slightly large party. There were 8 of us with only 2 of the food towers and... 4 choices to go around. Meanwhile, we saw tables of two getting one food tower and two smaller tea choices. So basically alarger party will pay the same amount per person with say less food and less tea choices. The food and tea was good, but therejust wasn't enough of it to really go around. It's not like we came expecting a full meal, but because of how busy it was (witha reservation) we were starving by the time we left. They're also really weird about refills. Refills of tea are only thempouring more hot water into it (which is fine, but it took them forever to do so) and one person in our party asked for anotherscone and i don't remember the price they said, but it was kinda insane for just once scone. Way to overpriced for thefood/drink to price ratio. Read more
Cute place tucked back from the street. We called early for a same day reservation (Wednesday) and were graciously accommodated... for their Afternoon Tea service. Service was excellent and all food was delicious. Good value for what you receive and wasplenty of food for our appetites. Good variety of loose teas to choose from, brewed in personal pot for each and thoughtfullyprovided a tray to set leaves aside when timer finished. Only minus comment would be that filling on a couple sandwiches was alittle skimpy. Reservations recommended and they also offer a brunch / lunch menu. Read more
A very cute English garden atmosphere. The wait staff are attentive and kind. The food is supposed to be modest, but the finger... sandwiches be it small still are prepared skimpping on ingredients. The tea tiers are also very modest especially for the price.And watch out because there are a lot of sneaky ways they add charges to your bill. The owner really should consider takingthese charges away. There's not enough food to charge extra for people sharing a tier and a small pot of tea. You're reallypaying for the garden and cuteness. But it still feels like your robbed when the portions are not even light snack sized. I'lltake my tea to the park with a pretty blanket, friends and my own tea sandwiches/macaroons. Read more
Highly recommend reservations and reading all small print. I found this place online because I was looking for high tea. It... was tucked behind buildings with a great outdoor dining area. It was a tad chilly but there were heaters. We tried getting onetea but you have to call 24hrs in advance which we missed somehow. We enjoyed our tea and service was great. They did mess upon all vegetarian sandwiches. Plus was there are vegan options. Staff was very friendly and the petite fours were the stars! Read more
Photos are from last week to over two and three years ago. You can see how the portions have changed. So has the service. I... can?t express how sad I am about this. I want to support a small business but this was so bad. I wanted to treat family to anice tea place. We barely had service, the table I confirmed was not available despite there being only one other party there. Afly flew into our honey and when I subtly asked for a replacement, the owner came back to show me the fly was still moving so itwas not her fault. I should have asked how much the take away chicken salad sandwiches were because they were $6 for each slidersized portion. So for about $200, including the tip and 4oz of tea, it was so not worth it. The best part was the bill beingpresented, with the face up, to the wrong person. We had one queen, a high and a lower service. I?m glad I changed it from 3queens tea. The second photo was two queen and the last is three queen.The picture does that one no justice. Read more
Can we talk about how wonderful Tea List is?! My husband and I visited a couple days ago and got the Queen's Tea package ($49.95... per person). I made reservations ahead of time and confirmed the day before our reservation which tea package we wanted. I alsoappreciate that they asked if there are any allergy accommodations e.g. dairy free substitutes. Just a heads up: Queen's Tea hasto be reserved 24 hours in advance. When we arrived, our table was already ready for us. The staff were so sweet and attentive.Since we got the Queen's Tea, we got to choose our teas with the option of changing it out 2 more times with a different tea. Wetried the Buckingham Palace Garden Party tea and then I later tried the Long Island Strawberry Green Tea while my husband latergot the Organic Mango Mango. All of the teas were delicious, but we agreed the Buckingham Palace was our favorite. The packagealso included a large assortment of tea sandwiches and cakes. We were surprised by how full we were by the end of tea time andhad to take the cakes home! We'll definitely be back here again. Read more
Very cute outdoor corner with fresh flowers on each table. We were greeted with friendly staff and they offered a very helpful... and thorough description of the menu and services they offer. We also met the owner and she was extremely friendly. We orderedfrozen lemonade and raspberry tea. Excellent service and flavors. It?s one of a kind! Read more
I loved the bourbon vanilla tea. It is flavorful and wonderful. I like black English tea, and the bourbon vanity was amazing.... Their service was wonderful. Our waitress Emma did a phenomenal job. I will definitely be back to this place Read more
