  • Lace doilies of America Unite! At Abbey Gardens! Wow... I really don't know quite what to make of this place. Other than to know it makes me want to put on a fake British accent and call all my friends by names out of Jane Austen novels. This place is a tea shop, sandwich shop and gift shop, all rolled into one, in the middle of a Mesa strip mall. Once inside, you notice a hella lotta lace, doilies, china, floral fabric and pretty china easels reserving tables for people like "Mabel" and "Gladys." I went with several friends: One of them LOVES this place, the other one just barely held back vomit during lunch, and the other was sort of intrigued, like me. First, you order tea, for $3.50 per person. They have a huge selection -- but it's mostly not the hip, herbal stuff you'll get at a place like Mandala in Scottsdale. Instead, much of it has a more dignified, British flare. I suppose. I ordered a South African red tea with vanilla. They take you into a back room and let you choose the antique cup and saucer you want. Then they bring it out, along with another antique teapot and strainer. Let me say, my tea was AWESOME! We ordered sandwiches. I got a "pannini-style" veggie. When it came it had about 8 pounds of cheese on it and about one vegetable. So, while not exactly healthy, it was tasty. I gathered that the food was really simple, sort of like something your aunt Sally might make. At $9, I thought it was slightly overpriced. At the end of the meal, they bring out cute little tea cookies for you to sample-- those were excellent. I think this is a cute place to go with your grandma, or maybe even your mother, for tea and scones. Or, you can always go with your girlfriends. Just make sure they're not the type of people who can't squelch the urge to criticize your "tea party etiquette." Apparently I put my elbows on the table too much, and I slouch. I never noticed this until I went to Abbey Gardens...
