I usually don't write reviews, but I was so blown away by the Sister's Tea Room that it would feel wrong not to share my experience. First, let me talk about the atmosphere. The location is on Mentor Ave, and it was very easy to find with adequate parking behind the house, as well as street parking within walking distance. When you open the door to the Tea Room, you are greeted by a warm setting of florals and pinks. It reminded me of a doll's house because it is small, but very quaint. It's also very sophisticated, fancy, and inviting. The staff that greets you are equally warm and very welcoming. (I would advise to make a reservation even for a party of 2 because they filled up quite quickly.)
I ordered the Traditional Afternoon Tea. It comes with tea, two scones, a selection of 4 different tea sandwiches and 4 tea fancy desserts. I'm a big fan of Earl Grey tea, so I had that. The sugar cubes that are offered are in shapes of tea cups, tea pots and roses! The scones were Irish Buttermilk with a side of cream and lemon curd. The scones were warm, fresh and lemon curd was tart but not in a way that made it unedible. The tea sandwiches were filling even for their size. The Curried Chicken Salad Croissant was by far my favorite. The idea of curry was a little daunting because I expected it to be spicy and very heavy. I was suprised. It had the curry flavor, but it wasn't overpowering. It was very light, but not short on flavor, and fit in very well with my meal.
The Sister's Tea Room is owned and run by two sisters: Teresa and Julie. They are lovely!! You can really tell that they are passtionate about their business, love what they're doing and enjoy making their customers happy. Everything on the menu is homemade. The menu includes breakfast selections, seasonal items, soups, salads, sandwiches and plenty of desserts. There was nothing left on my plate, and I was impressed with everything. I had a very good experience, and look forward to going back.
The Sister's Tea Room has everything a restaurant should: an inviting atmosphere, warma and friendly staff, and delicious homemade food.
If I had to give a rating, it would be 5 stars!

The food is awesome! It is a very charming tea room with very friendly people. We had the high tea, everything was delicious. The scones and the soup is to die for.
My husband and I went for high tea. Everything was delicious. Our server Theresa was delightful and made helpful suggestions about what we should order. The building was quaint, although the seating was a little cramped. There was a lot to choose from in the gift shop. I'm glad that we made a reservation since one of the parties that arrived was unable to be seated. The website said to anticipate a two hour visit, and we were there for two hours exactly. Great experience; we will be back!
