Rate the following (1-5, five being the best!)
Food: 5
Service: 5
Atmosphere: 5
Okay for Children: Yes (but it depends on the child, DD is old enough
to sit quietly and enjoy quiet conversation)
Okay for Couples: Yes (this is a nice break from all the noise and
heat of the park
Be Sure to Try: the mini deserts are great, I had the chocolate ˇclair and it was terrific. Also the strawberries with cream are great and are enough to share between two to three people.
General tips: Make sure to make a reservation, when we got there they were not taking walk-ups and were telling people they could take their names, but it would be 2 - 3 hours
TheMouseForLess tips: Use the DDE card here
Extra Comments: For those like myself that are not big on tea. To me tea is drinking Liptons and I do not drink that often either. I also was not sure if I would like some of the other adult oriented choices and asked if I could just get the same sandwiches as my DD and the waitress allowed me to order a Ms. Potts for myself and gave me a soda instead of chocolate milk. DD loved drinking "special dark tea" chocolate milk from the special tea pot. I plan to do this on my next trip when I go with both kids. DS loves tea and this would be a blast for him and DD had such a good time and it was nice to have some quiet time away from the craziness.

think. The sandwiches were very good, the cookies, breads, cheeses, fruit,

19, and had as good a time as us.
