Grandma has the recipe for a perfect cup of tea or espresso. We provide the hat, the cuppa & sweets. The conversation & hospitality are yours to remember, enjoy Prince Edward Island. Midmost of PEI is Grandma's... a traditional tearoom: I do say, "It's relaxing, tea renditions play softly, loose tea sipped from fine china, Victorian hats adorn heads, a must."
We invite our guests up to the tea sniffing bar with 22 tea choices, choice of china tea cup, pick a hat from the rack, and engage in the experience that Grandma's tea, coffee & snapshot have to offer. Special feature for 2008 we now offer the best shot of an espresso/cappuccino/latte & macchiato in Prince Edward Island.
We have a quaint dining area set in the parlour of our Bed & Breakfast. All our jam, cream, marmalade, pepper jelly and pastries are made here with our favourite recipes.
A cream tea, light tea, afternoon tea & a wee little tea menu.
The idea of taking afternoon tea is delightful all in itself on Prince Edward Island. The beauty, gentility, refinement and richness are all conjured experiences when your tea is served in a floral teapot aside a Victorian tea cup and saucer. You're seated at a place setting with beautiful handmade lace linen napkins, while tea renditions play softly in the background setting an experience of a relaxing, never rushed, rather enjoyed cup of tea.
- Pour a bit of hot water into your tea pot and swish it around ( this will warm your pot and prevent it from cracking)

- Pour the boiling water over your tea leaves and replace lid
- Put a tea cozy on your tea pot to keep your tea hot and steep your tea
