English Tea Rooms in Massachusetts
Afternoon tea is an English custom in which people drink a cup of tea while enjoying light foods such as scones with clotted cream, quiches, or small desserts. English tea rooms in Massachusetts continue this tradition. Many tea rooms also feature an onsite store so guests may purchase tea to take home. Does this Spark an idea?
