    I treated my mom and her best friend to High Tea. They were blown away by the experience. The tiers were picturesque and delicious, the tea selections were plentiful and perfectly hot with every cup, and the room themes were adorable. I’ll be back for the Alice in Wonderland Tea room for sure! Thank you for taking such good care of them.

    A cute little shop for tea with girl friends! We had a small room for three with a baby with a dining table and two bench/couches for seating. There are other small rooms for different sizes. It was a quiet place to catch up with each other with excellent service. We chose a high tea reservation so the finger sandwiches and pastry goodies were ready on tiered trays upon our arrival. We chose our teas from a big list when we sat. Teas were yummy, but the star was the fresh scone! Too bad they don't allow for an order to go of them. Will definitely be going back.

    The experience from booking to seating, through an elegant ambiance for my wife's birthday, the owner's of this spot have put a lot of Love and passion into their vision. We arrived a few moments behind schedule and before we even arrived we received a text from the owner with a full photo showing us our table was ready- I thought this was a clever idea! The environment was peaceful, the staff exceptionally friendly and the menu was more than I expected. We can't wait to bring our family back for another adventure in a different themed room! :) Thanks Elixir!!

    This is my third time doing a high tea at Elixir and each experience has been exceptional! The decor is unique and welcoming which provides an ideal time to slow down and enjoy the company of others. I can’t wait to return again soon…I’m so lucky to be so close! It’s the perfect spot for a girls group to reconnect or celebrate a special occasion.
