Barbara's Victorian Teahouse

Mrs. D invited us to get tea at Barbara's Victorian Teahouse in Rancho Cucamonga. Thinking that I was going to a regular, ordinary tea house, my jaw literally dropped when i went inside. Mrs. D had talked about the place, but dang! she sure wasn't lying about how ornate this place was. If you really want to experience drinking tea at a fancy place. Barbara's Victorian Teahouse is the place to go. They practice the rules and etiquette of drinking tea.

Here we are! This pic was taken after picking our hats. Amanda had the most hilarious one. Dressing up was the cherry on top to this experience.


There's different kinds of menus that consist of different food options. We got the $20 value which included four assorted sandwiches, scone, dessert, salad, mixed fruit, and unlimited choices of tea.


Our table was already set up when we arrived. This teahouse only takes reservations. They buy the ingredients the night before according to the reservations and the amount of people attending teatime the next day.




I was amazed about how many teasets Barbara has, because she literally had hundreds on each table in the house, each set unique and decorated in their own special way. She has always loved teasets, has collected them over the years, and some are even donated.

Me, being silly as usual. Ugh that wrist band makes the picture so ugly.


here's are table! Our first two teas were Vanilla Almond, and Apple Cinnamon. They provided us with milk, sugar, and honey on the side.


So, there was a proper order to eating our food. First we enjoyed our Raspberry Vinegrette Salad


Then we moved on with our fresh fruit warm scone with mock devonshire cream, preserves, and lemon curd


Next, we ate our four assorted tea sandwiches sandwiches which included an egg salad sandwich, cucumber sandwich, tomato basil pesto, and a tuna sandwich. We refilled our teapots with new flavors to pair off with our food. With the sandwiches we tried out Orange Spice.


Lastly, our dessert! Chocolate covered strawberry, white chocolate, lemon pastry, and a shortbread with fruit filling cookie. Paired our dessert with Strawberry Peach tea.

We talked for hours! But it was really nice to just relax and drink some tea while discussing the difficult life of being a woman! ahah After 2 hours of filling our stomachs with food and our bladders with tea, we finally finished and walked around the house










The place was filled with antiques tea sets and christmas decor. lots of jewelry and accessories to try on and purchase. We went upsatirs and they were even selling vintage clothing!

Overall, going to this teahouse was such a great experience. It definitely taught me to appreciate the simple things in life like having true meaningful conversation over some tea and to really savor the moments you spend with the people you love! I hope the outfits don't scare you into trying this place out. It definitely is a wonderful and humbling experience.
