treats. There is a great variety of sweets and traditional
English fare to purchase. Sometimes I stop in just to do
that! This is a tea room you will want to add to your

Boulder
Dushanbe Teahouse, Boulder, CO
Visited:
November, 2007. Meal: Afternoon tea. Type of tea: Loose leaf. Served: In a teapot.
Tea: Good. Food: Fair. Service: Fair.
Appearance: Excellent.
Comments: What
happened to this place? Are there new owners who
don't know how to run a restaurant? It is still
breathtakingly beautiful to look at but no longer
enjoyable to go for tea or food. On this visit our
tea was over-brewed and a little bitter. They did
replace it when asked, and the second time it was
under-brewed and lacking that good tea flavor. (I
guess they over-compensated.) Even some of the
food was under-cooked. And the service: Once we
asked for the tea to be replaced - correctly, I
think, since this is a tea house - they pretty
much snubbed us! We could barely get their
attention to order dessert, and they never removed
the used dishes from our table. None of the staff
would look us in the eye, so maybe they know
there's a problem. I used to come here all the
time but this is the third time we've been
disappointed here so I'm sorry to say we won't be
back. It really breaks my heart to lose this tea
house. I'll be watching the reviews here to see if
the owners can turn the place around.
Would you go back? Sorry, no.

Comments: I took my 93 year old aunt to the
Dushanbe tea house. We were looking forwared to having a
pleasnt day. Everything was very unpleasent We had a 2:30 reservation We were not seated until
3:30 Due to the hostesses mistake. even though most
tables were open. I complained and complained but it
fell on deaf ears. The Hostess was extremely rude and
uncaring. We even watched her get into a verbal argument with another customer as well. We missed
our lunch (they only serve until 3) All they served
us was nasty tasting very expensive appitizers because
they said they were out of everything. It was a very
disappointing misrable expierence. This is a very
beautiful and unique place but they need to get over
themselves and practice better customer service.

Comments: If you are a tea lover and in

It's worth a visit just to see the building with
its beautifully carved and painted panels. They
have a large selection of excellent loose leaf
tea. I had a pot of Formosa Jade oolong which was
wonderfully floral and sweet. I also purchased
some of their Jade Spring which is the house
specialty green tea. At $3.75/oz, this was a real
bargain. I've had teas priced a lot higher that
weren't as good. Even the tea skeptic in our group
liked both of these teas. The food menu has
offerings from all over the world, and all three
of us were very pleased with our choices.

as unique and beautiful as the city it's in. The
teahouse's airy interior, complemented by the
gently splash of the courtyard fountain, is a
soothing place to wile away an hour or two. In the
summer, the small tables outside are a wonderful

While the service by the mostly college student
staff can be spotty, the Dushanbe Teahouse is
lovely for a spot of tea at whatever time of day.
Their gingerbread, served with the most gorgeous
tea sauce, is to die for!!!

Comments: The Boulder Dushanbe Teahouse
was a gift to the City of Boulder from her
sister-city Dushanbe. The tea house has hand
carved wooden posts and hand painted ceilings and
walls. There is a lovely fountain in the center of
the tea house. You can dine inside or outside by
the Boulder Creek. This is a great place to bring
out-of-town guests as it is a
"one-of-a-kind" tea house. The food is
excellent and the prices are reasonable.

nothing overly above average, but just right. I do like that
it's just a little off the beaten path from the usual pearl

reccomend this if you want to go out with a friend or two to chat, or
even to talk up a little conversation with the locals.

The front is a shop selling British foods.
They have a very good selection of English

where tea is served. The tea was PG Tips. It was
steeped to perfection before being brought to the
table. The leaves or bags (I don't know which it
was) were not left in the pot to get bitter. It
was a huge pot and piping hot. The sandwiches and
biscuits were standard stuff, but tasty. The shop
sells a variety of English teas in addition to PG
Tips. These included Taylor's of Harrogate,
Typhoo, and Yorkshire Gold.

Tea: Poor. Food: Fair.
Service: Fair. Appearance: Excellent.
Comments: The ambience was provided by the group of women I
was with, and the gorgeous castle at Glen Eyrie. The tea was a
major disappointment, one pot black tea one pot decaf herbal for a
table of 8 women! The waitress refilled water glasses repeatedly
but never the tea which was not very hot, I dont think they even boil the
water. The food was ok but not traditional, scones
were hard like the starbucks type. Scones served first, then the 'savory' food which
was peculiar-pastry type things with fillings, mini quiche, deviled
egg, NO SANDWICHES! That is very odd. THe spinach filled pastry
was really gummy. There was small chocolate candy in paper like
you would get at a restaurant. THe waitress simply disappeared
never to be seen again. No music which would have been nice. Just
a food mill attitude. I've been enjoying tea for years and they just
don't get it.

the 'family' treatment each time you come in. The
food is abundant and tastes great for the price.
There are many choices of teas available and the
accompanying finger sandwiches makes for a full
meal. It is something you would expect from a
high-priced restaurant with all the fanfare but in
a much more relaxed/soothing environment and with
prices that are more down to earth. Every
teapot/china setting has its own distinct
'personality' allowing each person to take part in
the history of each tea. I say all this because I
initially expected that "teas" would be
for my wife and her friends. Instead, I was
pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed it as much as

pretty busy the day we were there. The servers were

Comments: I took my mother to the Brown
Palace while she was visiting us just to have a
look around. They were able to seat us for tea
without a reservation. Everything was delightful.
It was well worth the cost ($20-25). I
ordered the Palace Tea and she ordered the
Chocolate Tea -- each little dessert had some
chocolate in it. The sandwiches were
delicious and they offered a second plate of them
to us, which we took! My favorite were the Curry
Egg Salad sandwiches. They served two types of
scones to each of us. I am quite picky about my
scones. The texture was different, but they were
wonderful. All the little desserts were wonderful.
Next time, I'll order the Chocolate Tea myself!
Our actual tea to drink was served in individual
pots. I had their House Brand. They do use loose
leaf teas, but left the leaves in the pot. They
poured additional hot water into our pots, but I
would have preferred to have the tea brewed and
decanted to avoid bitterness. Otherwise, I
wouldn't change a thing!
The piano player and harpist were both excellent
and the service was impeccable. I can't wait
to go back!

Comments: My sister-in-law and I
regularly have high [sic] tea at the Brown
Palace. It is such a pleasure! The service is
beyond excellent. The staff recognize us, and have
occasionally comped our tea, because we are such
regulars. Each of the servers seems genuinely
interested in every guest. There is a pianist,
providing beautiful accompaniment. The food is
exquisite!!!! Whenever we have a special occasion,
or a particularly special out-of town guest, we
take them to the Brown Palace. And whenever we can
sneak away from the office, to the Brown we go! If
you are EVER in Colorado, you MUST go to the Brown
for tea! They also serve a lovely salmon lunch
with tea. Delicious!!!!

Comments: This wonderful little tea shop
is open Monday through Saturday from 11am to
5.30pm, with a capacity of 16 (so it is advisable
to make reservations). They sell British food
products, various brands of British tea, English
teapots and accessories, in fact just about
anything you can think of! Also in stock are
crafts from England and Wales, which tend to sell
fast but are constantly being replaced. The
owners, Bud and Joyce Mahn along with their top
notch English staff, will make your visit a
pleasant and relaxing experience

Tea: Excellent. Food: Excellent.

Comments: Cano's serves loose tea (yes,
really), freshly brewed by the pot. The menu is 3
or 4 items and seating is very limited. Lunch is
affordably priced and includes a pot of tea,
lunch, and scones with Devon cream and jam. The
food is fresh, hot, and delicious. The owner is
Welsh (Boor da') and always serves the tea with
the comment "Let it brew." A Victorian
Tea happens every December and they seem willing
to accommodate (with advance notice) some special
parties, i.e. over four, or wanting lunch late. No
tea is served on Sundays except in December. A
very good selection of pots and tea sets; British
and Welsh paraphernalia and food items,
cheese/sausage etc. Intimate and relaxing.

I have ever tasted. I got an education about tea (and life) from this delightful
person. I’ve gone back again and again with friends – can’t seem to
stay away. Drink, food, soothing environment, mesmerizing
“chandelier” – everything was a source of wonder here, alone or with
friends.

Teabags.
Served: In a teapot.
Tea: Excellent. Food: Excellent.
Service: Excellent. Appearance: Excellent.
Comments: I have been to The House of Commons on
several occasions and really enjoyed it. I've enjoyed the
fresh scones, desserts, and sandwiches, all of which were
delicious and served promptly. I've found the wait staff to be
courteous and attentive. The owner is also very friendly and
seems to really care about her customers. The hot teas
are always good (my favorite is Scottish Breakfast). They
also have some creative blends of iced teas which I find to
be very refreshing on a warm summer day. I've also
purchased some English tea there (PG Tips) as well as a
great little teapot for home use. The House of Commons is
bright and clean; it is a great place to meet your friends for
some tea and conversation. If you're looking for an
authentic British tea room in the Denver area with excellent
tea and food, look no further. Highly recommended.
Would you go back? Yes, can't wait!

Tea: Good. Food: Average.
Service: Average. Appearance: Good.
Comments: Nice, but over priced. The tea was good, however,
when I asked for more hot water, they threw some tea bags in the
pot of a different flavor than what I had originally ordered, and never
made it back to our table so I could get that fixed. The quantity of
pastries with the tea was pretty sparce. Another table had tray
upon tray delivered to their table. We had to ask for more pastries,
and instead of bringing a new tray, she acted like we asked for
something unusual, asked what we wanted, and then brought some
out on a plate and transferred them to the dirty tray we just
emptied. Other than the multi-level tray, and dainty portions,
everything was just average. No different than service at any
neighborhood cafe. For nearly $20 a head, I expected something
elegant, and was disappointed. The atmosphere is stark, and the
portions are small. If you go there, order from the menu, at $6-7 per
person. You'll get more food, and the same service, for half the
price of the afternoon tea.
Would you go back? Sorry, no.

They let us try several different kinds and of course, refill
as often as you want! We had many sweets and savouries and enjoyed them all. The only crit I'd have is
that the portions do seem a bit small. If you are really
hungry, try the Brown Palace for their refillable sandwiches! Otherwise, it's always
a delightful time!

Comments: Though everything was lovely this is the
most I have ever spent on any meal. Although they had
a decently priced menu they just assumed we wanted
afternoon tea, which turned out to be about $23 a person, for tea and snacks. Seven people, $200, and
leaving hungry is why I would never suggest this place
even though everything was quite tasty ... but so is
lobster for that price.

Comments: I was taken to the House of
Windsor for my birthday tea ... after all the
excitement built, I was very disappointed. The tea
room was nice to look at, but we didn't have a
choice of tea -- which tasted "old." The
service was poor, the server looked haggard and
didn't tend to us as expected. I'm sure she's had
better days. The only real positive: the gift shop
had some awesome merchandise. The scone was also
good, but the portions were a bit on the light
side. The presentation wasn't that spectacular. I
will go back next week, just to see if it was just
a bad day.

Comments: The House of Windsor is a nice
little spot for lunch, but don't expect great, or
even good, tea. Both the previous reviews mention
the fact the the restaurant is British. The
owners' nationality, however, does not lend any
special magic to their tea. I was highly
disappointed to find that they brew a large
commercial urn of tea which is kept hot all day.
The tea inside may be three to four hours old.
This is the only tea they sell. Their selection of
teapots and cozies and tins is excellent. Their
tea is not. The House of Windsor is not a tea room
so much as a café that features ready-brewed hot
tea.

Comments: I've visited House of Windsor 3
times. Twice I've simply ordered from the menu,
and once I made reservations for the Afternoon
Tea. The soups and sandwiches I ordered from the
lunch menu were delicious, and the scones were
warm and tender/moist. Real Devon cream was
served, along with jam. The Afternoon Tea platter
had a nice assortment of sandwiches with crusts, a
choice of trifle or petit fours, scones, and
fruit. Although the food wasn't
"excellent," it certainly was very good.
The service is also good. Unfortunately, though,
the tea is in tea bag form. When I inquired about
loose tea, I was told by the wait staff that it's
"too messy." At least the tea is served
in pots with cozies that keep it nice and hot.
It's affordable, the food is good, and the tea is
good and hot. I recommend House of Windsor.

Friendly, busy tea shop with good selection of

Nicely decorated with a homey feel (hard to
accomplish in a strip mall shopping center!). Not
a super elegant "fancy" tea shop --
that's what makes it comfortable. The food is very
good and nice selection of desserts with
reasonable prices. Once again, don't expect
gourmet cuisine. The service is usually good, but
they can get a bit rushed. If you want a proper

best in town. Be sure to make reservations...
they're always crowded.
