The Inn on Negley

This bed and breakfast is amazing. It is decorated beautifully and so clean, there’s not one thing that they have not thought of in the rooms. They even have the remotes sanitized. The inn keeper, was absolutely delightful and so is everybody that works in the B and B. In my opinion one of the nicest B and B’s we’ve stayed in and we’ve stayed in many. I would highly recommend this lovely sanctuary to anyone.

The Inn is stunning. Very much a Luxury BnB! Terrific location, we walked to the museums, local churches, restaurants, etc. The staff were wonderful, helping us with everything. Nice to grab a glass of wine, or two, (provided by the Inn) in the afternoon on the outdoor deck after a day of playing tourist. The breakfasts were superb and much more than we expected. Definitely the place to stay when you are in the Pittsburgh region!

Wow. From entrance through departure we were welcomed by a refined and gentle mannered staff. Food allergies were beyond accommodated. Each sandwich and pastry was a work of art and the tea was outstanding. Every part of the experience was respectfully explained to us and the Chef was warm and kind in addition to being a culinary artist. Can’t wait to bring back out of town family to enjoy this EXPERIENCE.

Stayed at the Negley with a group of women. We booked the whole charming Inn and then some- with the rest of our group who joined us for a truly delicious breakfast in the morning. There was always fruit, a choice of sweet or savory- and healthy oatmeal! If they had more rooms we would have booked them too! The staff is fabulous. John, the manager was so helpful and very knowledgeable (ask him about Fallingwater) gave us all sorts of ideas and suggestions of what to do in Pittsburgh. The rooms spacious and comfortable. Flowering pots all around, lovely patio and spacious comfortable rooms.Charming No elevator- so three flights of steps if you are on the third floor - but you will have help with suitcases. I would go back!

I have been a regular to Pittsburgh for 15 years, the first 8 years we stayed at the Omni or Fairmont to be close to the downtown and stadiums. The last 6 years we found the Negley, it's is our favorite. The breakfast and wine/cheese on the weekend are excellent. We visit at least 4 times a year, the staff is wonderful, they make you feel like family. The rooms are clean and cozy. The Inn is beautifully decorated during the holidays and the outdoor deck is great in the warmer weather. Looking forward to several more trips this year.

The Inn at Negley is a great little Inn, in the heart of Shady Side. Wonderful service, clean, comfortable, excellent breakfast. |The location is excellent for walking to shops and restaurants.|It is my new favorite place to stay in Shady Side. The staff is extremely accommodating. The rooms were charming and well appointed.

Me and 9 other friends had the benefit of staying at the Inn On Negley. We took over the place and the staff was amazing. They catered to our every need. The food was great, the rooms were great everything was just perfect. I highly recommend this Inn.

It's not fair to call this place a “hotel”. Forget the impersonal, standardized comfort of the best hotels. Here, you're transported back in time and want to stay forever. It's like the home of a very rich and kind friend. This gem makes you feel like you're in a Jane Austen book, but with all the comforts of today. The Inn on Negley is beautiful! Think Persian rugs, oil paintings, delicate china, solid wood furniture, crystal chandeliers, canopy beds, different decor in each of the eight rooms charmingly named after apples. Look at the photos on the website: they're real. Add new, fresh-smelling bed linen, a pillow menu, soft towels, fluffy bathrobes, slippers and L'Occitane toiletries. Add impeccable maintenance: perfect cleanliness, new paintwork, no peeling, no mold (not even on the shower curtain). What's more, breakfast is freshly made to order (forget that giant buffet full of fattening, bland things): everything is very delicate, decorated with flowers, warm muffins that melt in your mouth; afternoon tea with free cookies for guests, and special afternoon tea (paid separately) for guests and/or anybody who wants to come. All done in an impeccably clean kitchen (yes, I went to check the kitchen). And the icing on the cake: the extremely friendly and helpful staff. It was hard to leave after a perfect week. For us, the location was excellent, because our goal was to visit Carnegie Mellon and Pitt universities, which are very close (you can walk there). The Shadyshide neighborhood is well served by shops and restaurants, all close to the hotel. It's very safe, so you can walk around even at night (important information for our Brazilian fellows). Finally, I need to mention a few details that may bother some people: 1) the rooms don't have a minibar (we didn't feel the need); 2) the internet wasn't very good, at various times I had to dock my cell phone to work on the computer (I think it was a one-off problem that they were solving); 3) the Inn on Negley is in a beautiful late 19th century house, without an elevator. The rooms are on the ground floor, first floor and second floor. Ours was on the second floor (Empire suite). We had to climb two flights of stairs to get there. If you have mobility problems or are traveling with a lot of luggage, ask for a suite on the ground floor. In conclusion: can I give this wonderful place more than five stars? I want to go back!!!! The bar has been raised. I won't stay anywhere else when I go back to Pittsburgh!

We had mixed messages ... Kentucky Derby/Ascot hats yes or no. We went with Yes (Amazon: Kentucky derby hat). Mimosas on the back patio that was thankfully under cover from the sun. We went inside for tea education. Tables of 6 were comfortable. We started with our tea. The tea drinkers were impressed with the loose tea and strainers. We were confused with the honey straws until we saw the embroidery scissors. The pea pesto on toast was my favorite. The cucumbers were sliced very thin and flavorful. The chicken salad was just right. The orange and mango/ginger scones were delightful with/out preserves and clotted cream. The bottom tier had the cheesecake with apricots, brownies. & raspberry pavlova. Beautiful architecture. Host and wait staff very attentive. L'Occtaine Verbena soap (my favorite) was in the bathroom. Already discussed planning an event in the future here. Reservations ASAP.

We visited The Inn on Negley for Cookies and Cocoa around Valentine's Day and had a great time. The dining room is so cute and cozy -- it really takes you back in time. I don't know what I was picturing a bed and breakfast to be like, but this is definitely it. All of the staff was helpful and kind. We even got to pet a doodle dog, which is obviously a plus! Now for the food -- the cookies themselves were excellent. The reservation gets you three cookies, a dish of fresh whipped cream, fresh marshmallows, and a pot of cocoa poured over a chocolate lattice in your mug. Everything tasted amazing. I'd never had fresh marshmallows before, but it will be hard to go back to store bought! Overall 100% recommend. Can't wait to try high tea here as well.

Yep. Best hot cocoa in the Burgh. My husband and I agree it was the best hot cocoa we've ever had. We went for high tea with our boys and they ordered that but we tried it. The teas were great and they accommodated my Vegan husband fully. The place was fancy but not pretentious. It was expensive so it was a nice treat. Not something we could do often but it was a lovely event.

I visited the Inn on Negley in June. We had to book 2 months in advance to get a Saturday reservation. When you're booking you can notify of allergies. There was a small upcharge for gluten free food. The waitstaff were attentive and knowledgeable of tea selections. The GF goods are baked in house. I appreciate that they were similar flavor profiles of the non-GF food. The passion fruit scone was interesting. The brownie was my favorite - think GF cosmic brownie! I'd like to go back to hopefully sit on the patio. It was too hot the day I went, but the patio looks lovely!

The Inn on Negley is absolutely amazing. Our stay was so magical, we already made plans to come back at a later time for no reason. We initially found ourselves staying here the weekend of the Taylor Swift concert. We were excited about being in Shadyside away from most of the TS traffic, and our choice turned out to be excellent. The Inn also has a small parking lot with enough dedicated spots for its guests, so you never have to worry about parking. The rooms here are absolutely stunning. They are decorated with class and care and every room has its own personality. The accessible room on the first floor, the Braeburn Suite, is spacious and stunning with its old world touches but homey modern feel. The moment we checked in, we were blown away! It was romantic and lovely. The bed was truly the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in while traveling and had the most beautiful four-post frame. You truly can't go wrong with any of the rooms here. We peeked in a few others and each has its own character and panache. We didn't make it to high tea because we were tight on our schedule, but we did deeply enjoy the chef's breakfast daily for the weekend. The food was made with love, presented thoughtfully and made us giddily excited for breakfast daily. We chose to eat on the patio daily and felt like we were transported to some quiet, green oasis that surely could not have been Pittsburgh. Top to bottom, staying at the Inn on Negley is an experience worth having. It's also walking distance to several Shadyside attractions. We could not have asked for a more comfortable, inviting, and beautiful stay here. The innkeeper and all the staff members were engaging, kind, and helped with anything we needed. Our new favorite place!

The ambiance was very peaceful and conducive to conversation. Beautifully decorated rooms, but the flatware, dishes, and tea pots were lacking quality. Food, while presented very well, missed on flavor and complexity. The server was very sweet and helpful. She changed out my flasa immediately when I showed her it was dirty. My plate had old egg on it too. I was showing a friend what a High Tea was because I love them and find one whenever I travel. This facility should stick to being an Inn as it was a poor tea experience.

I've been hesitant to get on planes due to COVID so we've been looking into bed and breakfasts within driving distance...this place came up on the list and I am so glad it did. It's easy to miss while going down the street but it is absolutely charming: our room was like being in a history book. The bed and sheets were quite luxurious...you will get a great night's sleep. If you're on the top floor, there are a lot of stairs...not a big deal but I was huffing and puffing while pregnant. If you love tea, then check this place out. They have an amazing selection (the hot apple spice is sweet and cozy even without adding honey or sugar) and their tea time is great. You don't need to stay at this establishment to enjoy their high tea but if you do, you can also do tea privately in your room which I love. There are lots of little add ons to your experience (a bit overpriced but worth it for the experience... especially if you're there with someone else) and the staff and chef really try to be accommodating (for example of you're not drinking, or if you prefer a certain kind of wine). It was a little rainy when we went so we couldn't enjoy breakfast outside but the indoor space was lovely. I do wish there was more variety (especially in non egg options) with the breakfast but that's a nit picky sort of complaint. Each guest can have a parking spot in the back...very convenient.

This is a super cute inn! I attended a baby shower here, and they had a nice little room for about 15 people. The staff was nice. I had some kind of apple cider tea, which was delicious. I forgot to get a picture of the pastry tower, but the pastries were great as well (especially the scones!). The food wasn't bad either (although it didn't blow me away). Overall, this was a great place to have a small event and I had a good experience.

This place is amazing! Spent the weekend and couldn't ask for a more beautiful place! Room was gorgeous! Bed was so comfortable and pillows were heaven! Carol was the sweetest hostess and breakfast each morning was on point! Hope to visit again when the weather is warmer. Just a quick walk from many cute shops and restaurants on Walnut St.

High end. Historical. Elegant. My mother in law & I went here to celebrate my birthday. Everyone there was very kind and checked in on us. There are multiple rooms you can have tea in and you can even stay the night. They serve a 3 tiered plate with savory and sweet options. A few of my favorites: tea: vanilla Creme black tea Savory: egg salad on crostini Sweet: vanilla scone OR chocolate ganache macaroon The reason I'm not giving it 5/5 is because the house was extremely hot. Both my mom and I were quite hot while drinking hot tea. All in all I would recommend this spot to anyone looking for a more unique way to stay in Pittsburgh.

This two reviews rolled into one. First, we attended a very nice baby shower in the fall. The service, food, and selection were on par with what I have experienced at other high teas. You can see the fall decorations in one photo. 4/5 stars As the shower was winding down, the hostess let us know that the Inn also offers brunch from 9am-1pm every day of the week. Well, I knew what I was getting my partner for Christmas this year. We can't usually brunch, since local restaurants typically seat on Sundays and that's a workday for them, so it felt luxuriant to dress up and go out on a Monday morning. We arrived with big appetites at 9am, just as breakfast was wrapping up for the B&B's overnight guests. This meant that we essentially had the room to ourselves. Everything was beautifully decorated, with an entire Dickens Village under the side board. We started with fruit cups, mini pastries, cranberry juice, and individually steeped teas. DH chose the sweet entrée, which was chunky French toast, while I opted for the savory, some of the best-seasoned eggs and potatoes I have ever tasted. (You can add a breakfast meat for extra, but I'm glad I didn't.) So full that I couldn't even touch the toast that came with it, we asked them to box up our eggnog cheese cake desserts to go. (A seating is 2 hours long; we were ready to go after 1.5 hours.) It was really lovely to have this time together to catch up with each other, and the price was a steal for the experience. We would love to come back in warm weather to be able to sit on the back deck. 6/5 stars

My sibling came down from Georgia just got off airport. This place was out of this world, very elegant and British style of High Tea. The ambiance was quite like British Palor. We got our privacy. Just two of us. So nice. Reservations Required. The server was excellent and so polite and explained all the food. It was like a show. I love it. Definitely recommended for entertaining.

We went here for the holiday tea and LOVED it! They had so many different types of tea, including seasonal flavors, and we were able to try more than one. Our favorites were the White Christmas and the warm apple. The sandwiches, scones, and desserts were also delicious. We had a private room for our group of six. A great way to kick off the holiday season! We will definitely try to go back next year.

Overall: The place has a charm to it. The outdoor garden patio area is so cute. Would recommend this spot more for brunch than afternoon tea. Reservations are recommended! Food: [Brunch] Small menu but everything we ordered was quite good. Skip the popular brunch spots and the crowds and head over here for a change. Good value for the money. But I did make reservations in advance. The place is small so reservations made in advance is recommended. 7/10 [Afternoon Tea] The sandwiches was good. The desserts were tooo sweet for my liking. Decent selection of teas. 6/10 Parking: There is some parking space in the back. Street parking is available as well.

I met my sister here for high tea. It was delicious!! Everyone was friendly and they accommodated my sisters food allergies. The space is adorable!!

I visited the Inn at Negley for Holiday Tea and it was charming. The Inn itself is lovely - a restored period home in a charming neighborhood in Shadyside. It's a great area to walk and explore and just enjoy a great community. But the Inn during the holiday season is next level - beautifully decorated and even cozier than usual. Its like something out of a movie. As for the tea itself, you start by selecting your tea. There are a LOT to choose from. And the best part? You can try as many as you like! And if tea isn't your thing you can do an extra special hot chocolate. The tower of tea snacks delivered includes: savory finger sandwiches, scones and cookies. I was particularly a fan of the savory sandwiches (the egg salad in particular) and the fruit cake scone. If you're looking for a new holiday memory location. Consider Negley Inn. Be sure to make a reservation to secure your spot!

This place is absolutely fantastic! Cozy vibes, friendly staff, and delicious food. A must-visit spot for a relaxing and indulgent experience.

I am obsessed with the ambience of this small, cute, bed & breakfast. As soon as you walked in, you could see the charm and the character it had. I came with two friends for brunch. Initially we were seated inside, but we asked to be moved outside, and it was such a good decision. We were surrounded by the greenery that was growing around this patio and it did not feel like we were in Pittsburgh. The food was amazing. They started us off with a fruit cup, zucchini banana bread, and these small muffins. The bread and muffins came out of the kitchen still warm, were served with butter, and the combination was literally insane. We chose teas from a long menu-- I had the waiter's recommendation, which was the hot apple spice. It tasted like fall in a cup and the apple flavor was like a warm hug. For our main course, we were given one sweet option and one savory option. The savory option was a frittata and the sweet option was lemon poppyseed waffles. I had the waffles, but my friends wanted both so they accommodated them by giving them half frittata and half waffles which was just super cool of them. MY WAFFLES WERE AMAZING. Like, crunchy on the outside, airy on the inside, and had the right amount of lemon flavor. On the side, I also had eggs, ham, and a bagel for kicks. The only reason why I docked a star is because I felt they were not very transparent about the price of the food. I knew coming into it that it was one number, but I incorrectly assumed that that number included all of the food. The eggs were extra, and if I'm remembering correctly I think the bagel was also extra. If you're worried about this, just make sure you ask. Overall though, I'm super excited to hopefully come back and experience their tea time!

I my whole experience here was lovely from start to finish. We found parking right next to the Inn, were greeted immediately upon entering, and had our table waiting for us. Our server was very knowledgeable about not just their offered teas but other teas as well. The food and teas were all delicious, and I appreciated the air conditioning inside, especially since we came a few days after graduation on a pretty hot day.

This place is an absolute gem. Even though it's on a busy drive, it's easy to miss as it's a B&B, but my Mom has really wanted to go here for the tea service and breakfast. They offer a few seatings throughout the day, and getting a booking spot took a few weeks. The j side of the house itself is worth a visit as the staff clearly takes pride in how they decorate and keep the location up. I'm not a tea person, but they have a large selection, many of them are loose-leaf, and they serve some very tasty honey with whatever you choose. They also have a large selection of teas for purchase on display. They started us by bringing out some muffins and breads that were delicious. They had one bread that had pumpkin seeds and berries and they were delicious My wife ordered waffles and she said it was delicious. They bring it out presented nicely, and they also offer a decent side of breakfast meat (bacon, sausage, turkey bacon, and ham). The rest of the table ordered their special which was baked eggs. They were somewhere between a soft-cooked egg and an egg over easy. It came with tomatoes and brussel sprouts. I'm not a huge fan of brussel sprouts, but they went well with the eggs and gave a unique taste to the eggs. It also came with some breakfast potatoes and when I wasn't sure ok if I wanted sausage or bacon, the server said she'd bring me both. They were both very tasty. At the end, they brought out chocolate brownies which were small, but they were so rich that I feel as though most people wouldn't want more than a few bites. The staff couldn't have been friendlier. They were all warm, welcoming, and more than happy to answer questions about the house. They also decorated nicely for Halloween and we're all looking forward to going back in December to see the hat they decide to do for Christmas.

Amazing!! We came here for high tea time and it was everything I expected and more!! The food was amazingly delicious and so filling. Trying all of the different teas really made me happy. Our server was very attentive to us and so much fun. She helped us with trying new things and explaining what they were going to taste like. The bed and breakfast was adorable and I loved this experience. I will definitely be back! It takes a while to get in for the high tea time with a marketer group. But be patient and know that it's worth the wait!

We went for afternoon tea. We booked it early in advance. Only street parking is available which was tricky on a rainy day. The service staff was very friendly but seemed busy and not very attentive. The inn was nice and the atmosphere cozy. The food was nothing to rave about. Mostly sweet not much savory. The scones were soggy. The tea was good but nothing out of the ordinary. They sell the same brand tea at Walmart and Target. The hot chocolate was very good probably the best thing on the menu for an extra upcharge of course.

Great ambiance and staff were friendly and attentive. A little pricey for the food but the tea was sublime!

Lovely experience. Enjoyed every bit of it. So happy we came in December, the Christmas decor was beautiful and the holiday teas were absolutely perfect. Service was great as they recommended the seasonal ones to us. The food tower was delicious and I can't get over how lovely the teas were.

What a beautiful experience for high tea! Went with a group of women and had excellent service. Staff was great and food was delicious! I was surprised by how full I was at the end of tea time. Spent about 2 hours there in total. We had our own private room since we were a party of 6. We got to order as many different types of teas as we wanted. The tray of food features 1 piece per person on each tier. So in total I had 8 different sandwiches/scones/pastries to try. All of them were so delicious! The crème and jelly for the scones were heavenly I suggest layering both on your scone for the ultimate experience. It was fun to try new teas that I normally wouldn't buy. We also had 2 small children with us and the staff was excellent with them offering them there own special treat and drinks. Highly recommend this experience!

We made an appointment For High Tea to celebrate my daughter's 10th birthday. Everything exceeded our expectations completely! Our server, Greg, was an incredible host for our tea service experience. I highly recommend this quaint and scrumptious venue.

What an experience! I loved my first high tea at this spot. As soon as I walked in with my friend, the place felt literally warm. The atmosphere was very cozy and inviting. We were treated to snacks and tea soon as we sat down. I got the white grapefruit tea and it felt subtle yet refreshing. I was told that it is one of their favorite teas. My friend got the oolong tea and she liked it albeit a strong aftertaste. We tried the mini sandwiches first. One of them was with spinach and hummus and was pretty good. The other two flavors were better than the first one. Speaking of the mini scones, they melted in the mouth! Upon my friend's suggestion, I ate the scone with crème fraiche and I just loved it. We then got a second pot of tea. Mine was herbal vervain and my friend got spiced cinnamon. The vervain had a very subtle flavor, nevertheless, I enjoyed it. This time around I tasted what my friend ordered as well. Her tea was spicy and very sweet at the same time. The fruit tart along with the chocolate cake were good. Overall, we liked everything and would highly recommend to try out this spot for tea. The only downside is that this experience is on the pricey side even if you consider all the tea/snack ingredients to be of high quality.

One of our favorites, once again we visited for their classy brunch meal, with hot tea, and as usual the service was excellent and the food was delicious! The atmosphere, a mix of classic and retro, is also always so pleasant and relaxing, providing a nice vintage, timeless feel. Outstanding!

My friends and I made a reservation to have high tea together on a Saturday afternoon. When making the reservation, we found that they were very flexible with time slots and accommodated us even though there was a wedding schedule there that afternoon. You are able to choose an unlimited amount of tea - I had the vanilla creme and the Darjeeling. Both delicious! Then, they served you with tiered plates of sandwiches, scones, and desserts. We were so obsessed with the sandwiches, that we asked for another plate! They were very happy to make us more, with an additional cost of $25. Worth it!!! Our waitresses seemed nice, but seemed timid or shy about serving us. A woman, who appeared to be a manager or the owner, also checked on us multiple times and was very nice! This is a great little spot for an afternoon with friends!

Second review: We mad sure to come back to visit again and were not disappointed! Everything was AMAZING and they even let us tour the adorable rooms too. Staff is top notch and so is the chef!! recently came here on a Sunday afternoon with my mom to celebrate her birthday! This place is adorable and so relaxing! We had such a nice time tasting a variety of teas and eating delicious food. We chose the lunch option which is $35 a person. It is a little steep but I can say was worth the experience. You can taste unlimited tea and get 3 tiers of food. They have a huge selection of tea to try, but my favorite was definitely the vanilla creme. Every bite of food I had I enjoyed and so did my mother. We were so stuffed by the end but we made sure to finish everything. The lemon scones were to die for and so was the jam! Service was fantastic and all of the staff was very friendly. I would definitely come back here again for a special occasion.

Had a lovely Saturday afternoon high tea date with my daughter. When we travel to the U.K. and Ireland, etc we love having afternoon tea. The Inn certainly lived up to our high expectations. Yet another little Pittsburgh gem not to be taken for granted. The tea selection is immense but not overwhelming. The tea sandwiches, scones and desserts are simply delicious. Refined, refreshing and elegant without being pretentious. Beautiful Victorian home with rooms decorated to reflect the authenticity of a time gone by. The guest rooms are spacious, very pretty and immaculate. Teddy Bears adorn the rooms and hallways without being overdone. Truly a must-see, must-do experience. Can't wait to go back.

Wow . Kindliness exists at this beautifully tended inn. The staff goes out of their way to address their guests every need -and in a beautiful atmosphere with 80 zillion pillows, 4 poster beds , antique rugs , even a flickering fireplace in my room for ambiance . A hearty complimentary breakfast is served in the mornings cooked to order , with several choices , plus a rousing afternoon tea is served ( separate reservations required ) and obviously has many fans . If you are going to Pittsburgh, I recommend the Inn at Newley also for its location -well situated in proximity to Baker's Square and the Frick Pittsburgh and walking distance to many local restaurants. Book ahead !

Came here for their Valentine's Day High Tea tasting. I have been wanting to try the Inn on Negley's High Tea for a while now and was pleased to see they were still taking reservations. We were seated in the backroom and were only one of two parties there. They explained all the different tea options. I was pleased to see they serve Harney & Sons Tea, which are my absolute favorite brand of teas. I started off with the Valentine's Tea, which had wonderful notes of rose. There was also honey, sugar cubes, and cream. My friend had the chocolate mint tea, which had the perfect balance of mint and chocolate. I was also happy they were able to accommodate my friend who was vegetarian. The chef brought out the three tiers of food and explained what each item was. The scones were delicious and the strawberry jam was outstanding! The creme fraiche was a bit on the tart side. For the savory sandwiches, I loved the garlic and herb cream cheese with crab cracker. The desserts were delicious as well. The chocolate hazelnut cheesecake was a nice way to end the meal. By the end, we were both stuffed. Overall, an excellent experience and worth the price. I would definitely recommend and come back again!

This place is amazing! We just happened to pass by since we live in the area and decided to book a one night "staycation" over the weekend. The inn offers special packages, so we booked an "Inn"timite night for two. First, the atmosphere. This place is so cozy. They have a porch outside with rocking chairs, and a tidy, warm dining room and sitting area for afternoon tea. They also have an outside patio with more rocking chairs and tables/seats. Our room itself (the Northern Spy suite) was very large, with a sitting area and a separate bedroom + bathroom. Everything was very clean and tastefully furnished. We received a package with various sanitary supplies given the current pandemic (face masks, hand sanitizer, gloves) upon arrival and everyone in the inn took the upmost precautions (everyone wore face masks, reminders everywhere about social distancing, tables set 6 feet apart, etc.). As a medical student, I was happy to see such detail taken to protect customers and employees. Second, the service was amazing. When I booked the inn over the phone, a very nice man named Nick helped me with the reservation. He made sure to get someone to call me back when he didn't know an answer to a question, and he was very patient when I had questions about the packages/which room to pick/etc. When we arrived, a very nice woman greeted us and showed us around and up to our rooms. She later arrived right on time to deliver wine and cheese as well as dessert later in the evening when we had scheduled them. The next day during our afternoon tea, another woman ushered us into the tea area and our waiter was very attentive. As for everything else--it was impeccable. They gave us a whole bottle of red wine as part of our package deal, and the cheese and charcuterie plate were delicious. The hot chocolate and cookies as well as the chocolate lava cake (so rich!) were also amazing. The afternoon tea service, which may other people have written about here, was an experience in itself. I honestly just want to replay our whole stay again because it was so great. I highly recommend booking a stay here for a "staycation" or just going for afternoon tea. 5+ stars for sure!

Had a fabulous high tea at the Inn on Negley. The tea was spot on and the food delicious. Staff was friendly and polite. My friend and I felt very welcomed and will go again soon. The atmosphere was quaint and peaceful, perfect for chatting away for a couple of hours! Thanks to everyone there for a great afternoon!

My husband and I went here for "high tea." Such a cute place!! The staff was so kind, I can't say enough about how comfortable & special they made us feel! We had an assortment of sandwiches & pastries along with tea & the best hot chocolate of my life! The hot chocolate comes with homemade marshmallows and whipped cream. It cant be beat! The it was such a relaxing, calming, cozy time! We can't wait to visit again!

Although a bit pricey, I've come here for Valentine's Day tea with some girlfriends (yay for Galentine's Day) two years in a row and have had stellar experiences both times. What really prompted me to come back the second time was how accommodating they were for guests with food restrictions. When making our reservations, I let them know that I was a vegetarian and they brought out a separate savory course with 3 different types of sandwiches, on par with the "regular" sandwich options. The food is divided into 3 "courses": one savory course of mini sandwiches and two sweet courses: the first one with scones and biscuits and the second one with deserts (tarts, macaroons, cheesecake, etc.) As far as the teas go, there is a wide selection and you can't really go wrong with any of the options. Some personal favorites include the Jasmine tea and Mango white tea! Additionally, everything is presented in a very classy manner and the overall Victorian decor is very intimate and classy as well.

Enjoyed a lovely afternoon tea experience with friends at the Inn! It's cozy and intimate, adorned with Victorian style paintings, trinkets, and furniture. The atmosphere doesn't mandate dressing up, but you can if you'd really like to get into it. I think in these kinds of environments you'd typically like to anyway to fit the mood. $30 for the experience, 3 savory options, 2 scones, and 3 desserts. (+) Make a reservation especially for large groups (+) Tea selection: They offer a variety of teas: black, green, fruity, white, oolong, etc. My friends loved the Vanilla Creme Black Tea (thick, milky, tasty). I had the Pomegranate Oolong Tea and the Vanilla Creme Grapefruit White Tea. The latter is very sweet! Unlimited tea for the entirety of your time (+) Savory options: hummus + burschetta, chicken salad sandwich, cucumber finger sandwich (in order by favorites); very accommodating for our vegetarian friend (+) Scones: the vanilla scone is the best with jam + creme fraiche (+) Service: the servers were so patient and helpful, offering to hang our coats and explain everything to us (-) Desserts: lemon macaron, cinnamon apple tart, chocolate ganache brownie (in order by favorites); not terrible though

A great experience. Beautiful surroundings. Nice staff. Just make sure you make you reservation early, and enjoy.

My girlfriend and I stopped here for high tea as a pre holiday treat. The Inn is completely decorated for Christmas both inside and out. We were even allowed to tour a vacant guest room. It felt so warm and cozy inside. I was very impressed by the way the room and bathroom had been modernized yet had a homey feel to it. The room where we were led also had a "Dicken's Village display set up. It's not often I see one of those. So our very friendly waiter came over and explained the teas. I learned that the ones on the holiday menu are bagged teas. Their regular menu is all loose leaf. We were told we each could have a pot of our choice which was completely refillable. If we weren't happy with our choice then they would replace it with another one. My first one was a chocolatey mint one which was one of their Christmas blends but I didn't care for it. I settled instead for a loose leaf pomegranate. My girlfriend was happy with hers. The place setting was set up with everything you need for tea and shortly the chef brought out our 3 small courses on a three tiered platter. The top platter had some tea party sandwiches. The second had orange flavored scones. The bottom had desserts once of which was pumpkin pie with pumpkin seeds on it. On the table were jelly and cream for our scones. I didn't think that we would be full after seeing so little but indeed everything we ate was very good and extremely filling! We got our tea pots replenished several times and just basked be inside a cozy environment with it being so cold outside. Street parking is available although it is permit for up to two hours so you can park during the day for that amount of time only for free. This is a perfect place to take someone for a special occasion. They also serve brunch here as well. You must call however, for reservations.

Reviewing for the high tea service. AN ABSOLUTE MUST!! I have been coming for years and I swear the food and experience just gets better and better. So relaxing and such a treat. You can dress up or be casual. At the holidays it's a gorgeous display. Your price per person Includes your teas and foods. You will leave very full! A perfect day with a friend, family, spouse etc. not just for women!

My friend and I did High Tea the other weekend. It was an enjoyable experience and the food was good. I do like you can choose another tea if you do not like your selections but I highly recommend the cinnamon. Also my friend said you can do BYOB but I can't vouch for this. I will be back!

My best friend and I try to do afternoon tea once a year during the winter months and this was our second time visiting The Inn on Negley. The first time we visited the staff that greeted us at the door wasn't all that friendly. They pretty much judged us from the get go as if we were too young to be having a nice afternoon tea. So after that we decided to give it another try and hope it would be better. Thankfully the staff was much nicer this year! I've never had afternoon tea elsewhere to compare this experience to but I personally love it. They have a really nice selection of teas to choose from. Each table gets an assortment of scones, desserts, and appetizers/tea sandwiches. These selections change every day based on what the chef decides to make that day. Both times I thought the selection was fantastic.

Angel and Brian are phenomenal hosts with so much interesting information about the lovely, rural area of New Wilmington, and you will want for NOTHING during your stay! They have done a wonderful job and the Inn is as welcoming as they are. LARGE bedrooms, each with its own sitting area and its own bathroom (luxurious shower). There are additional rooms, nooks and crannies to explore and enjoy throughout the massive home. Everywhere you look it is a party for your eyes! My bed was one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in and the weekend breakfast was absolutely delicious and set for a queen! I can't say enough about this place - or the hosts - you MUST experience it! :)

One afternoon I begged my husband to take me out for tea. He was curious as to what was so special about high tea. I briefed him on tea sandwiches and treats and quickly insisted it was a 'girl thing' and suggested I should have a girls day out. I wasn't upset that he didn't want to go and was so happy I got to experience the cuteness with my gal pals. Upon entering this beautiful Victorian home, I was greeted with a warm welcome. That's always nice! They offered to take my coat and insisted we tour the house before tea time. I obliged! The house is stunning to say the least. I wouldn't mind having a staycation there! Once seated, they explained to us that each person gets their own pot of tea with a choice of two teas! The chef came out with a three tiered platter with sandwiches on the top, scones in the middle, and sweet treats at the bottom. All were quite delicious! Based on the pictures on yelp, it looks like the varieties change. Although the tea service is kind of pricey ($25/person), it was worth it. The service was excellent. The food looked like it wouldn't be enough for me but I was surprised I wasn't craving a steak afterwards. It was perfect. The tea was ok. My favorite is the vanilla creme. I also had the green tea and was disappointed. Usually I like green tea but this was a bit bitter than I would have liked. There were other choices that sounded more appealing. But hey, it gives me a reason to go back! My overall impression of the Inn and their tea service was excellent! I'd definitely go back for another girls day out. I think it can also be a great place to have a bridal shower, baby shower, or take your mom out for tea on Mother's Day. Super adorable!

I love this place. Took my mom for high tea on Mother's Day this year and it didn't disappoint. Will definitely be back for special occasions.

My husband and I come here for high tea about every 3 months. Usually we come when we are celebrating something like a birthday or over the holidays. I love lemon curd and when I make my reservation I always request it. Without fail this place has the best lemon curd in all of Pittsburgh. So we come when we have a special occasion but I'm good at creating special occasions as well!! Outstanding customer service and food!!

My wife and I went for high tea in October and the best word to describe the experience would have to be "relaxing". I'm not generally a huge tea drinker, but the menu was expansive with teas sourced from all across the world and an endless option of flavors that would be enjoyed by tea lovers or non-drinkers. The service was absolutely top notch, the food was delicious with an offering of small sandwiches, baked items and pastries for the day. We ordered their famous hot chocolate which was an experience in itself and left the Inn both full and comfortable. A great activity either on the deck or inside, especially on a rainy day

I went here again for Mother's Day with my mom and sister last Saturday. We got there a bit early but they let us in the dining room because there was this crazy baby shower going on it the rest of the inn and we had no where to even stand. The staff was very nice even though we were 15 mins early they got our tea and stuff for us earlier than are appointment time which they didn't have to do but it was very nice. All of our food came out very fast and once again the food was great and we all had a wonderful time!
