we love alice's tea cup! – We used to schlepp over to the west side regularly for our scone and tea fix, but now we have our own Alice's Tea Cup in our neighorhood! The scones and tea will always be my favorite things there, but we recently had a baby shower there for a friend, and it was one of the most delightful and enjoyable baby showers I've ever enjoyed. The wait staff was adorable, wearing fairy wings and sparkles, and the food (as always) was fantastic. And you have to check out the downstairs bathroom...! I'm sorry ... read more

Loved it! – Two words -- Pumpkin Scone. The food was great and the baked goods were unbelievable. They are still working out the kinks service wise (it just opened) but I can deal with slight inconsistencies when the food more than makes up for it. Plus they have cool tea infused cocktails!

HORRIBLE & RUDE service and exorbitant prices – Alice's tea cup is a pleasant surprise when you first walk in from 64th street.

Alice's Tea Flop – Lies, lies, all lies! As a group of 10 we made a reservation weeks in advance and there was no mention of pre fix meal costing $33. This is an establishment where on the average other menu items are not even $10. Worse the manager could have cared less telling us that the credit card used to hold the reservation would be charged regardless of whether we stayed or not. All this after we waited 45 minutes after our reservation time. Needless to say we chose to leave.

ENRAGING experience! – I was so excited to see that Alice's Tea Cup had opened in my neighborhood. Unfortunately, not only did my party have to wait 40 minutes to get seated; I was NOT told when I made the reservation that parties of 14 or more had to automatically order the Mad Hatter tea service ($27 per person) but I was told that I had to hold the reservation with a credit card. After our group was seated we were told that 14 Mad Hatters were on the way. I spoke with the manager, who was completely RUDE and unaccomodatin... read more

Extraordinary find in the city! – This place is just fantastic from the cute little teacups to the range of teas. And surprisingly the food was heaven. The pot of tea with two scones is a real deal especially for something that tastes GREAT!!
