The Best Places for Afternoon Tea in and Around Phoenix, Arizona | Eater Phoenix

"Whimsical and wonderfully British, the English Rose Tea Room is where kitsch meets class. Diners can don feather boas and hats while sipping from an extensive tea menu of more than 40 options. The $40 Formal Afternoon Tea includes all the classics: finger sandwiches with flavors like chicken salad, cucumber with creamed feta, and salmon and cream cheese (gluten-free options are available); vanilla scones with strawberry preserves, lemon curd, and Devonshire cream; and a selection of petit fours served on a three-tiered tray. Bonus points for its year-round themed events, from live music to festive holiday teas. It’s over-the-top but keeps the experience charming." - McConnell Quinn
