Kristtany Tea Room, Chambersburg, PA

July was a month full of tea room visits. Lots of fun times, and a photolog of memories. A birthday celebration for a sister that does not like having her photo taken (so none taken) took us to Kristtany Tea Room in Chambersburg, PA, about an hour south of us. This tea room is tucked among a variety of shops on the main drag in downtown Chambersburg, It originally was a building that held three businesses, but with the removal of walls, and opening up the space, the tea room is quite spacious and extends farther than it appears.

Family time at tea is our special getaway! Marj joined us, and Susanna and Angelica along with Nancy rounded out the party. We selected two hot teas (black berry and a peach), and an iced tea (presweetened).

The table is set with a pretty silken napkin, and coordinating dishes. Prior to our arrival, we requested the Serenitea which is the full tea menu. Once our teacups were filled, we were offered a selection of scones. The mixed berry scone is on the left, and a cinnamon praline on the right. There was also a lemon glazed scone as the third option.

Following the scone course was a thick and creamy chilled strawberry soup.

 We enjoyed their Melon Salad next which included fresh salad greens, watermelon, feta cheese, sugared pecans and a sweet balsamic glaze.

A savory that featured ham and cheese wrapped in a crescent roll, topped with tomato and heated in the oven to a melty deliciousness was up next. Tiered trays placed in the center of the table during our tea waited patiently for their use. Following the savory course, plates were added to the tiered tray that included a variety of sandwiches and assorted sweet desserts. 

A sweet ending to a delightful afternoon tea. Follow Krisstany on Facebook for updates on their tea room.
