Mimi's Tea Cottage

I have never been to a teahouse before and this one was definitely the place to start! It is absolutely darling inside. All the finishing touches are perfection. The staff is friendly. There are many different varieties of teas. I eat gluten-free and was thrilled to be able to enjoy everything that was available! And it was absolutely delicious! Definitely worth the visit even if you have to go out of your way!

Mimi’s was a dream! I’ve been in the Exton area for only about a year and was looking at nearby places to have my bridal shower and stumbled upon Mimi’s on a walk in West Chester! The decor was beautiful and I loved that the tea cups had the napkins folded like roses - I’ve never seen that before! The food exceeded any and all expectations! The potato leek soup was amazing, and everyone was immediately raving about it! I’m not a big quiche person… but I ate my whole dang quiche! Its was so fluffy, with perfectly melty pieces of guyere! The tea sandwiches were the perfect size, they accommodated to have my food gluten free for me, but when I tell you I tried that gluten free blueberry scone my jaw dropped! I had everyone at my table try it because I couldn’t believe it was gluten free!! The BEST scones of my life! My 8 year old niece is a picky eater and couldn’t stop telling everyone how delicious everything was! They also brought her out the cutest tea pot filled with hot cocoa, with a side of marshmallows - they truly made it such a memorable experience for everyone there! We all left full and couldn’t stop raving about the food! We ended up going a little past our designated time (we had family and friends traveling from out of state so it meant a lot that they let us take our time getting things sorted and leaving)! Karen & Ginny were so accommodating from start to finish, they were very communicative and so helpful day of! Having my bridal shower at Mimi’s made it so special - I couldn’t have asked for a better day and I’m beyond thankful!
