The Old Farm House Tea Room, Thomasville, PA

A birthday celebration took us to The Old Farm House Tea Room at 7027 Lincoln Highway in Thomasville, PA. They offer Afternoon Tea Wednesday through Sunday, by reservation. They also offer either a 'light' tea, 'high' tea, tea brunch, or tea meal. We enjoyed the 'high' tea while we were there.


An assortment of tables filled the room and the festive patriotic décor was inviting. Our group of three was seated at the end of a large table.

A fresh fruit cup was at the ready when we arrived. There was also a juice glass filled with a combination of freshly squeezed orange juice blended with other fruit juices to yield a refreshing beverage.

There was a small card on the table that listed the assorted teas available. We were able to select two different teas.

A petite salad was served next that included miniature red beet eggs. We were given the option of a Ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, or a house blend.

The scone and tea bread plate included a poppyseed tea bread and red velvet tea cake. There was a petite chocolate chip scone and a date scone. A small dish of cream was placed in the center of the assorted breads and scones.

The soup options included a tomato pasta soup or chicken orzo.
Sandwiches were served alongside the soup course. The tea plate held miniature ham and cheese pinwheels, and chicken salad on pita bread triangles. For dessert, there was a choice of pineapple upside down cake or peach cobbler with whipped cream topping.
Cheers!


Red, white, and blue decorative touches completed their patriotic theme, including photos of the presidents. The tables were all so colorful in their summer theme. There is a gift shop in the back, and the opportunity to purchase a wide variety of canned items from chow chow to assorted jellies.

Sounds like the perfect farm house tea time, plus birthday celebration too. Love the colorful table in that last picture too.
