ATMOSPHERE/LOCATION:
This great little Tea House in Triabunna is beautifully set out which takes you back in time a little. It has a beautiful fire place crackling in one room which keeps it nice and warm with old china placed around the Cafe and soft music playing to keep your mind at ease while sipping on a nice hot Earl Grey. It is in the centre of town which makes it easy to find and plenty of street parking.

SERVICE AND STAFF:
The service is impeccable and all the staff are incredibly friendly and happy to be working there.

FOOD AND PRICING:
Their range of cakes and slices seem to be endless and there just isn't enough room to fit them all in but we tried as we visited here several times during our 2 week local stay. The prices are starting to become a normal for cafes as many would say they are a little high on the pricing, which sometime we would agree with, but as we travel a lot, we notice that these are now becoming the average price for food at a higher class Tea Houses.

Last Words:
There was only one thing that tricked us up on our fist visit to the Tea House and that was on the menu it said that the 'Devonshire Tea' included 2 scones and jam and cream for the price, but when we went to pay, the drink is not included in that price, where most places we visit, a Devonshire Tea is a Devonshire Tea which is scones and drink.
No big deal other than the end bill was more than we expected but that didn't stop us from returning several times during our stay. Would return here for sure.
