Hadley's Tea

I was at this wonderful tea shop recently, in August 2014. I've never seen tea arranged more efficiently for smelling, choosing, etc. So many awesome varieties. Deanna served me my tea at my table, and she was so kind and helpful. The place was clean, and welcoming. Nice big comfy easy chairs in one area. I think one of the best kept local secrets in supporting local, rather than at Starbucks. Some cool items to buy, and also they have great coffees too. I give it a 5 star for sure. Thank you!

I met a friend for afternoon tea and what a mistake! We were served in a rushed fashion, not at all the "tea experience" that the website promised. The person working was obviously in a hurry to leave, and although we arrived an hour before the shop closed, we were made to feel that we were bothering him! He started to turn off lights before we were finished with our pot of tea, and as we left he was practically right behind us out the door. I checked my watch and it was 4:58 as I got into my car. I felt like I had just been cheated out of the afternoon tea with my friend. It made me wonder if the proprietor wanted for this to be more of a cuppa to go kind of place, but the website sure had me misled. Don't go to Hadley's Tea if you are looking for a civilized tea experience.

Nice place. Clean. Friendly sales help. Wonderful teas. They give sample of the iced teas of the day.
