| - Every year around the holidays, we do a girls day that includes tea. Miss Hickory's was the third tea room we've been to since starting this tradition. We went after Christmas this year due time off only after the holidays. We made a reservation near the end of lunch, and some of our party was a little late. The server didn't come over right away, and when we did, she didn't bring menus. After we asked for them, service was back on track.
We each ordered a different pot of tea, and I went with a holiday black tea. It was pretty good, but the most fun is drinking out of dainty floral tea cups with saucers. Their menu is fairly similar to other tea rooms; however, I really liked that their menu included an option to choose three items. So, I went with the chicken stew with spaetzels, which is available regularly, chicken salad on a croissant, and strawberry pretzel salad. It was the perfect amount of food to feel satisfied and try a few different things from the menu. Everything was extremely tasty!
After lunch, we were one of the last parties in the place, but they were patient enough to let us walk upstairs and scope out the charming Victorian decor in each of the bedrooms, which is one of the best parts of a tea room.
Overall, we all thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Miss Hickory's and will surely be back for next year's annual girls holiday tea!
