New England’s Best Teahouses | Eater Boston
"Say hello to the majestic 19th-century lions on your way into the Courtyard Tea Room in the Boston Public Library’s 1895 Renaissance revival McKim Building in Copley Square. Enter through the high-arched Map Room Tea Lounge — where cocktails, pots of tea, and food are served a la carte — to experience the Courtyard’s full afternoon tea experience. Sit overlooking the Italianate courtyard and enjoy a pot of Mem Tea’s Darjeeling second flush black tea paired with savories like dainty Boursin mousse and caviar tarts and Jambon de Paris embellished with savory pickles and juniper mustard made by the Catered Affair, plus sweets like alfajores sourced from local bakeries such as Doris Peruvian Pastries." - Stasia Brewczynski
