York Gardens & Tearoom is an authentic English Tearoom, daily serving light lunch Afternoon (High) Tea service with dinner service Friday through Saturday. We are the ONLY authentic English tearoom in Yorktown, Virginia complete with oversized Royal Tea Gardens. Serving freshly baked scones, dainty tea sandwiches, hearty dinner meals, delightful desserts, and with over 40 organic and fair trade certified teas to chose from, visiting York Gardens & Tearoom is truly a royal event.

Our Royal Tea Gardens are open Friday through Sunday (weather permitting) from Easter through October. The gardens provide patio dining by the water garden, dining in the rose garden (home to our life size princesses carriage), a croquet lawn with patio seating so our guests can enjoy outdoor dining while playing the game that is popular among England's Royals, and a fire pit area for those who enjoy fire side dinning. 

Our YouTube Channel, is hosted by Jimmy, owner of York Gardens & Tearoom. Jimmy is a practitioner of mindful living and loves tea, gardening, cooking, classical art, classical piano, antiques and the simple, beautiful things in life. He believes life is enjoyed the greatest when lived in the present and is enriched the most through relationships. "From family to tea; it's about relationships. It has always been about relationships; with each one as unique and special as the next, he says."

Jimmy has captured the imagination of many who have visited his tearoom. Through our channel he shares his tearoom, it's gardens, and a simple but beautiful way of living in the present. Rather it's sharing tea with someone, cooking, or weeding the garden, Jimmy seeks to encourage others to relax, live in the present, and cherish their relationships here and now.
