The place to go for the tea connoisseur. Order a BLT or go for one of the decadent scones along with your tea of choice (hundreds to choose from) while enjoying the ambiance of childhood memories

I LOVE tea, therefore I automatically love this place. The teapots are really affordable, especially since one large pot is enough for 3-4 people. Alice's tea was a green/black tea mix that was really tasty.
The pumpkin scone, which is seasonal, was extremely soft and yeasty, just how I like them. The flavor was subtle but so freakin good.

The scones benedict was unique but the overall taste was just average. I wouldn't recommend this.

The french toast, which is very bread pudding-like, was really sweet but delicious

First thing you'll probably notice here is decor. It really goes well with the name of place since it's all about Alice in Wonderland. Starting from tables and chairs, then different cookie jars and big mural on one of the walls with a bottle which says "drink me", you'll really have that wormhole feeling. Really nice. I came here for brunch on one Sunday and overall was really satisfied. Starting from really pleasant staff to already mentioned decor, food and, of course, tea experience is overall great. I had crepes with spinach, blueberry flavored tea and Big Cookie! It's really big and so delicious. Food was great, but you really want to come here for tea (and cookies) selection. It's really diverse and has lots of different flavors. It was very crowded when I went there, so if you're not ready to wait, don't go on hospitality rush hour times like Sunday brunch.

The service and food are fine, but the overall 'feel' is over-the-top in 'teacup', aka unnecessarily girly. The food is solid, esp. the eggs benedict. The tea service option is ridiculously overpriced, and so is the tea. The wait time is very long.

I am a lacto-ovo-vegetarian.

Good for tea and sandwiches. The carrot sandwich was fabulous. The veggie burger is way too dry and is completely avoidable.

The chocolate mousse with cream (called white rabbit dark chocolate mousse cake) is okay. Beware: they put sprinkles on the whipped cream.

Early Gray house tea was awesome. The fries have some good seasoning to it.
