Tea and Scones in Belmont

By

dawnDawn Thomas has always dreamed of having a tea room.  Earlier this month, that dream became reality.

She has created a place that Dawn believes “is a perfect place for celebrations, classes and the exchange of ideas, dreams and laughter. I hope to involve a ‘community’ of people  that frequent my small business.”

Located at 100 Watervliet Avenue in Belmont, CommuniTea can host about 30 people for lunch, dessert  or just tea.  The cozy eatery is just the right place to host a book club, bridal shower or just have high tea.  They serve soups, salads and cold sandwiches and Thomas is especially proud of their homemade sconces with are served with homemade 3 berry jam and  imported authentic clotted cream.  Enjoy their daily lunch special for $9.95, which includes soup du jour, a small salad or sandwich and a pot of tea.

If you prefer to visit for HIGH TEA , you’ll get the more traditional service of a 3 tiered display brought to your table which will includeafternoon-tea-at-mrs

Savories – Tiny pimento cheese, chicken salad or cucumber and dill  sandwiches

Scones – Served with housemade 3 berry jam and imported clotted cream

Pastries – Cakes, cookies, shortbread and sweets

 and of course a bottomless pot of tea.  High tea runs $14.95/person and Dawn shared that she is running a holiday special, you can purchase a gift card for high tea for two for $25.     Dawn shared with us that also special in children’s birthday parties, where small groups of  8-10 children, and a special party hostess can have a princess, ballerina or Frozen themed tea party.  But she is also quick to share that other than the children’s parties, which are held in a separate room, children are welcome, but each child must be accompanied by an adult, which with the china and hot tea around, makes perfect sense .
