Tea room
Deanna Barrett named her tea parlor after her grandmother, Stella. That’s because when she was a little girl her grandmother would invite her over for tea parties and bring out the fine china, scones, sweets and cupcakes. Four years ago Deanna opened Stella’s Tea Parlor to share the wonderful experience of having a tea party. Decorated with dolls, elaborately set tables, old photos of Stella and other family members, fine china and silverware which is delightfully mixed and matched, Stella’s is a tea partier’s paradise. Bridal showers, engagement parties, baby showers, group meetings, clubs, and birthday parties are just some of the events that schedule Stella’s Tea Parlor. There is plenty of food. “People do not realize how much we give them to eat.” There are soups, tea sandwiches, scones, sweet bread, and sweets like chocolate covered strawberries. And, of course, a pot of tea. And men come there too. A group comes regularly from one of the 55 plus communities nearby. All parties from 2 to 60 require reservations with 24 hours advance notice. Stella’s Tea parlor is located 317 East Street Road, Warminster, PA 18974. Call 215-773-0880 for reservations.
