We recently took a mini road trip south to Red Lion, PA and enjoyed afternoon tea at the Red Brick Bakery & Tea Room. Located at 55 N. Main Street, this charming little tea room is tucked on the side of the building. You enter this magical little red brick archway to find yourself in a tiny hidden alcove with a sweet wrought iron table and chair set. Once inside, there is a casual tea room atmosphere.
We selected our teas from an extensive tea list comprised of a nice variety of teas including plain black teas, decaffeinated teas, herbals, and rooibos.
The first course included an oatmeal honey scone with cream and jelly.
Piping hot and well seasoned, minestrone was served next.
The sandwich platter included a small dish of minted peas, a toasted pear croissant with a sweet cinnamon spread, chicken and asparagus melt, and turkey, avocado, & tomato wrap.
And for dessert, a seasonal variety that included a shamrock cookie, pistachio tassie, and a chocolate caramel cupcake. Yum!
And here we are - having a good time!
We have one in our group that insists 'I don't like tea', so he ordered off the menu and selected the waffles with a side of bacon. His plate was clean!
They offer breakfast, lunch, and their bakery items Wednesday thru Saturday. Afternoon Tea is offered Wednesday through Sunday, by reservation. It was a fun excursion!

What a cozy looking teashop! The food and tea look so delicious. Glad the non-tea drinker had something for him! That waffle looks yummy right about now!
How can anyone not like tea, I say!
But waffles and bacon would definitely be a yummy alternative. What a nice place to meet for tea.
This looks like a fun place, and I like the way you enter. Sort of like transporting you to another little world for your tea experience!
