“I booked Dotty’s Teahouse for my sister’s baby shower back in March. We had an amazing afternoon tea in the private upstairs area. Everything was perfect!! We had our own bar, private toilet facilities and the space is decorated beautifully!! The staff were all so so lovely. Rebecca’s husband greeted us when we arrived to set up and couldn’t of been more friendly and was a hit with the guests too! The food was superior to any other afternoon tea I’ve been to and every one commented on what a great place it is! I can’t wait to come and would definitely hire their private area again for any event! Can’t recommend it enough!”
