The White Heron Tea and Gifts

A delightful little spot tucked in town. Lovely atmosphere! Took Mom here for her 87th birthday & we truly enjoyed ourselves. They have two seatings for tea, one at noon & the other at 2:00. We each received a pot of tea of our choice (and there were many choices too!). We tried the house made caramel apple pie, a black tea, & also the pecan pastry which was a green tea. Both were delicious. The three tiered tray was presented beautifully. Yea sandwiches, egg salad tarts, scones with jam & Devonshire cream, and little desserts including macarons, & tiny cannoli. Everything was wonderful. The friendliness of our server & the staff must be mentioned as well. After tea, we browsed the gift shop & took home some tea selections & also William Dean Chocolates, pricey but amazing! He is a local chocolatier that is well known for a reason...his delicacies are fantastic!

Been here many times. This is my favorite tea room in the area. They simply have the cutest decor, the best service, and the tastiest food. I have never been disappointed.Their tea menu changes seasonally, so so do their sweet treats. Reservations are required, as they make the food custom for each seating. Downtown parking can be tough at certain times, so give yourself enough leeway for circling the block so you're not late for your reservation.

What a cute place! Darling tea shop that has a tea room and gift shop. We booked reservations for the afternoon tea for a girls tea day out. The shop is located in downtown New Port Richey. You park on the street and they have parking right in front of the shop. When you walk in, you step into their tea gift shop area. They have local tea for purchase from Driftwood Tea. They also have other tea related goodies and various other items for purchase. They do have some limited items from Savannah Bee Company as well. If you have tea in the Afternoon tea room then you are able to save 10% off loose leaf tea in the gift shop, excluding the sample packs that are $2.99. I do have to say that the prices are very reasonable compared to other places I've been to and the service, atmosphere and food was so much better here. Dawn was an AMAZING tea-stress :). She helped us in choosing flavors and even swapped out what we didn't like. We did end up finding a few that we really liked and got refills of those. The Long Island Strawberry Green Tea and the Watermelon Oolong tea were the table favs. Although the Long Island was my fav. The taste is light and refreshing and you get a hint of the strawberry flavor. It was so nice to sit around the table with friends and enjoy tea in this relaxing environment! The 4 of us all ordered 4 different teas so that we could share and sample to find a possible favorite. The tower of scones, sandwiches and sweets were plentiful. And if you don't finish you can most definitely get a box to take to go. My favorite was the blueberry scone with the fresh strawberry preserve jam and butter spread. Sooo delicious. I thought the tomato sandwich had too strong of a flavor (can't place the spice). The egg salad and key lime were in a crispy pastry type that I thought were just ok. I think the egg salad would've been better served on something else. The key lime filling was good but I just wasn't a fan of the pastry shell. Loved the chicken salad croissant. We will definitely be back just based off the service!If you want an iced tea or boba tea to go they also have available. And you can even book a private room within the tea room for a party. There was a birthday party going on in the room next to ours. Tea Times are Wednesday - Saturday at 12 pm and 2 pm. Each tea time lasts approximately one hour and fifteen minutes. Advance reservations are required for tea time with minimum of 24 hours in advance of desired reservation time. Afternoon Tea To Go and Scones To Go are available Wednesday - Saturday with advance order.

Afternoon tea at The White Heron is a must-try for tea lovers in the area (honestly, even if you don't like tea much, it's still a lovely time!). Excellent service and a relaxing atmosphere make the experience thoroughly enjoyable from the start. Once you choose from the extensive tea menu, your selection comes in a small tea pot with an adorable koozie to keep it warm. The three-tiered tray that is brought to your table is adorned with bite-sized delights like macarons, crustless cucumber sandwiches and scones. There is an air of leisure built in, as you get two hours to chat, sip and savor the charm and character of the tea room. Our server mentioned there are themed events around the holidays, and now we can't wait to go back at Christmastime!

This is such a cute tea room! My friends and I drive 40 min from tampa to come here and are never disappointed. The women that work here are so nice and welcoming. My best friend even had a very small intimate wedding shower here and it was PERFECT. So many tea flavors to choose from and you can even purchase tea (or small little trinkets/gifts) on your way out. Not only can you get tea, they have little tea sandwiches and cookies that pair perfectly with your tea. 10/10

Visited White Heron for afternoon tea today and could not be more impressed! From the decor to the food, everything was perfect. The tea room was beautiful, very clean, spacious, serene, and so cute! Perfect place for a girls day and some photos. The service was great and timely. Our waitress was very engaging, informative, and fun! There was a large variety of teas which came in adorable little pouches to keep warm. I tried 4 different flavors and they were all very tasty. My favorite part was the tower, which came with a variety of sandwiches, scones, and mini desserts. Everything was fresh, delicious, and well made! I recommend signing up for their newsletter, as they often do fun events. Looking forward to returning around the holidays, where they bringing in Christmas carolers and evening tea time!

A fun afternoon of drinking good tea and eating finger food with friends. It's a booked time so arrive early for your appointment and they expect you to leave when your time is up. You can buy tea in the lobby. Street parking is available

Can't wait to go back to this cute, beautifully decorated tea room and gift shop. The service and food were top-notch. We loved everything: the tomato sandwich with garlic basil aioli, the cucumber sandwich, and the scrumptious chicken salad croissant. The made-on-premises clotted cream was so tasty. Dessert - macaroon, eclair, and lemon bar were delicious. The restroom is spotless and spacious. We did not expect to find such a well-stocked gift shop, and came away with several treasures.Such a fun afternoon experience! Thank you, Deb and Dawn for an enjoyable visit.

The beauty the friendliness and I do love the ambience In fact I am going there today!

The food was beautiful and delicious! Loved the variety of teas and the calming atmosphere!!!
