Our upcoming events do require a reservation. We plan our events to entertain our guests and to add to the spirit of Afternoon (High) Tea. Not all of our events are centered around our tea service. Some events are dinners and in the spring, summer and early fall we enjoy using the Gardens for tea and dinner parties as well as other special events.  

TEA TALK LIVE ON FACEBOOK!

We will be hosting our live Tea Talks on Facebook York Gardens Tea Room each Tuesday evening from 7pm to 8:30pm.

Jimmy will be discussing the Royal Family and some of the hottest topics involving Britain's Dynasty.

Jimmy will also be joined by a friend and will take questions live while enjoying evening tea in the Parlor of York Gardens Tea Room.

NEW CHOIR GROUP FORMING NOW!

Gregorian chant is the central tradition of Western plainchant, a form of monophonic, unaccompanied song in Latin. It was developed mainly in western and central Europe during the 9th and 10th centuries, with later additions and redactions. A local Gregorian Chant group is forming and are seeking 8 choir members to join. A knowledge of Latin is not required. A firm dedication to practice and performance is required. There is no cost to join the group. For additional information, email Brandon at gcchoiryork@gmail.com York Gardens Tea Room will be the location of weekly practice, and has agreed to sponsor this group.  

York Gardens Tea Room is getting ready to host its first Daddy Daughter afternoon tea party on Saturday August 3rd. from 2 to 4pm.

Both daddy & daughter are asked to dress for formal tea. Photos will be available in the princess carriage but the event will be held in our dinning room.

  Jimmy, owner of York Gardens Tea Room will be hosting an international tea tasting.

In this popular workshop you will sample a tea from the very famous tea mountains of Gedeng Shan. Mangzhi Shan. Mansa Shan. Manzhuan Shan. Yibang Shan and Youle Shan.

Explore the bold but subtle richness of teas from these mountains. As Jimmy guides you on your tasting journey, you will explore each tea's differences and similarities, discuss the cultures of each tea's origin and explore what is so special and unique about these mountains, their soil and climates, that they are considered the best tea mountains in the world.
This isn't grandma's Sunday afternoon porch tea. Boy, was her tea good though! No, the flavors from these mountains will have you asking, 'where have they been hiding these teas.'

This workshop includes 2 scones with preserves and York Cream, a special tasting cup, free tea samples to take home, and of course, samplings of the best tea produced in all the known world.

Space is limited to 25 participants.
Tickets are just $20.00pp.

To get your reservation and ticket you must call (757) 218-6807 or (757) 690-4186. Wednesday - Sunday from 11am to 5pm.
See you at the Tea Tasting.

Cheers!
