Comments: For a long time now I have been a Coffee gal, However after a visit to Antiqui Tea's I have found my love for Tea's once more. The house tea that my friend and I ordered was GREAT! The food was also very good. I suggest you visit this sweet place for tea and or lunch. I know I will be back to visit this Tea shop for a comfortable, easy, and breezy day. As I write this review I am sitting back in my over stuffed chair with an interesting book and my (house Tea) that I purchased at Antiqui Tea's and I am loving my day. Thanks!

Comments: I have been enjoying tea at Antiquiteas for at least 5 years. My best friend and I discovered it while at it's original location in Salem, NH. Since then I have brought other close friends at one time or another. I have also introduced my Red Hat Society group to this wonderful tea house and they all raved about how good it was. The rooms are lovely and very cozy. There are gift shops and tea items for sale. The food is always topnotch and varied. I would recommend it to anyone desiring a "special" lunch or tea.

Comments: My husband and I visited AntiquiTeas on two occasions and we will return. On our first visit, I had the Afternoon Tea. It was a delight! My husband started with a most luscious cold Tropical Fruit Soup! I had one taste and must admit that I ate half of it, as it was heavenly! My husband had a ham and cheese salad which was good, but for a hungry man appetite, he needed more and I shared my assortment of finger sandwiches and desserts. We both left completely satisfied. On the second visit we opted for luncheon sandwiches. I had a most delicious chicken salad with cranberry orange relish.! I will return to have that again. He enjoyed his herbed egg salad and also wants to have it once again. Desserts were out of this world! He had a very moist carrot cake which is a favorite dessert of his, and he is very picky about his carrot cake. He said that they make this one perfectly. It was very moist and they certainly did not skimp on the luscious cream cheese frosting. I had white cake with berries and cream and loved it. What a perfect ending to a wonderful luncheon meal! I also plan to go with my girlfriend and her two little grand-daughters within a month, as we want to expose them to afternoon tea with all the little delicacies. This tea room was a pure delight! On both visits the waitress couldn't have been nicer. She was so friendy, pleasant and helpful. I did buy several books and items down in the shop on my first visit. The shop is spread over several rooms, and we had a nice chat with the owner from Ireland. A lovely gal! If you try tea shops in New England as we do, please add this one to your list!

Comments: I have been to Antiquiteas many times in the past and have always found it to be a lovely place. I have spoken to the owner Brenda on many occasions and found her to be very accommodating. I just love it there. It is worth the trip. Everyone is entitled to an off day now and then. I guess that goes for the person who gave the review below mine. As a business owner, you certainly want to know if a guest is not happy. I think it would be to an owners advantage to know how to serve you better. Most places the waitress will ask you if all is well. That is the time to make suggestions or dislikes. I guess you just can't please some people who insist on trying to make you look bad on the web and not to your face.

Comments: Just visited the new location of AntiquiTeas in Londonderry formerly located in Salem, NH. My friends and I met for a delightful Tea Luncheon in the Rose Room, one of three beautifully decorated dining rooms. We were delighted with the elegant decor. It was just lovely. We started with a fresh pot of House Tea brewed to perfection. The pot had a bright cheerful tea cozy on it which was just one of many that were for sale in the gift shop downstairs. We all had different vintage teacups to drink from and the room was full of lovely antiques and gifts. Soft music played in the background and we were greeted by a lovely lady with silver hair and a warm friendly smile. I ordered the soup and sandwich which was heavenly. A pumpkin coconut bisque which was delicious and piping hot. My sandwich was Dilled Tuna Salad and simply the most delicious Tuna I had ever tasted. I don't know what they did to it, but it was like no tuna I had ever tasted before. For dessert I ordered the dessert scones. (My absolute favorite!) Blueberry and Apricot served with sweet cream. My friend Ruth ordered the The Chicken Soup with Sun-dried Tomato and a slice of the Potato Bacon & Spinach Quiche. The presentation was stunning. She ordered the Warm Gingerbread with Cream and said it was just like her Mama used to make. Gen ordered Creamy Corn Chowder and it looked just fabulous. She skipped a second course to leave room for a Peaches and Cream Cheesecake with lightly sweetened peaches in a light rose syrup. So beautiful you almost didn't want to eat it! The table next to us ordered Afternoon Tea and when it came to the table the ladies were obviously impressed and delighted. It was so elegant. Three tiers including tea sandwiches, desserts, scones and what looked like chocolates and dipped fruit on the top tier. We asked our server to explain what it was all about. We were informed that the tearoom is unable to accept reservations, however it was a good idea to call ahead and let them know when we were coming for two reasons; if there should be a wait for a table (we did have to wait about 10 minutes) our Tea would be ready for us when our table was as it takes some time to prepare; it was further explained that only a certain number of servings are made up for the day to guarantee freshness. We are planning a trip back at the end of the month for Afternoon Tea! I highly recommend this charming tearoom to anyone who appreciates delicious food and an elegant dining experience. I plan to bring all my friends. This place is truly something special.

Comments: I first went to Antiquiteas when it was located in Salem, and have been many times since it moved to Londonderry. The owner, Brenda, was warm and accommodating and when I first walked in was immediately greeted with a smile. The place is beautiful and had many rooms to wander. The shops are filled with beautiful things for sale and I was surprised at how inexpensive these things were! My friends and I were there at Christmas and had an experience I will long remember. The decorations, music, home made eggnog, hot pumpkin soup with puff pastries floating on top, and three tiered tray filled with appetizers, sandwiches, pastries and fruit was such a wonderful meal. We were all full! There was a professional story teller who entertained us with her stories and antics, singing and joking. We loved her. The service was cordial and timely, the waitress friendly and accommodating. My friends and I love this place and having gone about 5 or more times bringing new people to experience it, I couldn't recommend it more highly as an out of the ordinary place to spend a few hours!!

Comments: AntiquiTeas Tea Room is a lovely tea room in Londonderry NH. It has a lot of charm. The foods is delicious and fresh and the tea is served in a lovely cozy. We had soup, quiche, sandwiches and dessert. When you are done eating, you can browse the many fine shops that are in the same building. It is a fun trip to take. Tea and shopping all in one nice building.

Tea: Average.  Food: Poor. Service: Poor.  Appearance: Fair.
Comments: Myself and a friend with her two children attended the 'Fairy Tea Party'. What a waste of money! It was $25 per person, even for the two 7 year olds. We only stayed for an hour because it was so poorly organized and not depicted accurately on their website at all. Face painting, dress up, and gift bags along with fairy stories were promised but not delivered. The children were bored with what appeared to be a hastily organized slide show of useless mundane 'fairy facts'. Another group left at the same time because their children couldn't sit through any more of it. The tea cups smelled as though they'd been cleaned with a dirty dish towel, and the "fairy cakes" were simply homemade brownies and store bought cookies. Don't waste your time or hard earned money on this!!!
Would you go back? Sorry, no.
