Tea cups, tea pots, assorted books, including a cookbook from the tea room, could be found in the gift shop. Don't you love the use of the vintage kitchen pieces as display units?
The first course featured two warm scones, plain and blueberry with cream and jelly, served on a pretty lacy pedestal plate.
The sandwiches included an assortment of seven different petite sandwiches that were pimiento cheese on pumpernickel bread, egg salad, cucumber on thin bread, a finger sandwich of artichoke and Parmesan, a creamy cranberry teapot shaped sandwich and chicken salad squares.
Following the sandwich course, individual plates for dessert included a petite sweet bread, sugar cookie teapot, and a miniature cream tartlet.
Several years ago (2007 to be exact), The Rosemary House hosted a traveling herb seminar that stopped here for Afternoon Tea during one of their adventures to visit gardens in the Philadelphia area. It was a treat to be able to return ten years later.

Now that would be a tea time I would enjoy. The vintage decor is quite fun. Love the teapots throughout the garden.
