Lovey's Tea Shoppe
Erynn said: For kids who are itching to feel more 'grown-up,' a fancy tea party at Lovey's fits the bill! While there are no kids' activities to keep them occupied, those with 'fancy pants' won't mind sitting down for a formal two-hour tea service. Birthday tea packages vary based on the size of your group, but there are both Duchess Tea and Royal Tea options with an array of sandwich selections.
