Crown & Thistle Tea Room

Let me start off by saying I read many of the comments left on Google about this establishment. Some were negative and could be harmful to this business, others were quite positive. I am leaving a positive review of the Crown &Thistle. The staff were friendly, professional, attentive and knowledgeable. The atmosphere included very soft appropriate music for the space. All that were dining had quiet conversations. It was an overall very pleasant experience. I would like to suggest finding local honey to replace the packets of it, then maybe have the honey available to sell. Other than that, loved our tea experience. Cheers!🥰

The tea experience was very nice. I take note of the details and it was lovely. The silverware was elegant as was the tea ware, cup and saucer matching. The food was all from scratch and delicious. The pumpkin woopie pies were amazing!! They have a great selection of tea. The place was very clean and staff was friendly. I gave 4 stars for atmosphere because it was not a private eating experience. The patrons next to us were very close and loud and all we heard was their conversation. Classical music softly playing would have set a nice mood. Otherwise a lovely time. We got the high tea lunch.

Thoughtfully designed and decorated to complement the entire experience of enjoying a personal pot of tea, sharing delicious savory and sweet items in an atmosphere of soft music and conversation. You'll even love the complimentary bathroom decor! You are greeted with a smile, provided ample time to choose your pot of tea. Our table of four chose the Classic Afternoon Tea at $40 per person (tax and tip included) and all chose a different tea. I chose Huckleberry Happiness - a great choice. As we went on March 17, our dessert tier had a substitute item for St Patrick's Day. If you are wondering whether finger food can fill you up... Yes, it can. Each portion for each tier and your own pot of tea plus ice water is satisfying and filling. An absolute great price for the Classic Afternoon Tea. Reservations are highly recommended. We were delighted when both Rebecca Bradley and Melissa Roop stopped by our table - both were enthusiastic when discussing their path to opening their tea room, and, for future tea additions and surprise changes to their menus. Crown & Thistle Tea Room is a great addition to Waynesville.

My mom and I went for the afternoon tea with full three tier service. It was a great experience and everything was delicious! Best teas I’ve ever had! They have so many events planned and I hope to attend as many as possible. The owners are fabulous and I love how they support businesses owned by women. My mom and I highly recommend this business!!

This tea room was so cute! We got the Classic Afternoon Tea package, and it was very good. Each person got a pot of tea, and it was so good that we bought a 3rd pot to share! We tried the Creme Brulee Earl Gray, Butterfly Pea, and one other that I cannot remember the name of, but they were all great! The food was great, and the scones were my favorite part. Staff was super friendly and checked in often. Highly recommend! We will be back!
