Enjoying a Cuppa at Seventh Tea Bar

Sometimes I think I was supposed to be born in England. I’m dying to go to London, have a thing for British film and telly, and can drink tea like there’s no tomorrow. Lucky for me, America’s enthusiasm for the drink seems to be on the rise and tea bars are cropping up all over the place. One of my new favorites is Seventh Tea Bar in The OC Mart Mix.

The atmosphere here is fantastically British right down to the Bowler hats and London landmark wallpaper.

When I come for a spot of tea I love to sit in that very chair and relax. Funny thing is, I often order iced tea. Probably because they have it on tap. Yup, I said on tap.

I often go for the Rosella Berry a delightfully fizzy concoction. Of course, the day I decided to take some pics for this here blog it was not on the menu. So I decided to try a new flavor – Four Season.

A mild caffeine free option with a slight floral taste that I heartily enjoyed. And of course, you can’t have tea without bread and jam.

In this case it’s called breads and spreads and there’s a list of spreads to choose from. I decided to go for strawberry black pepper jam and cocoa vanilla butter. Mmm, mmm, mmm.

And recently they’ve added an outdoor seating area to take advantage of our lovely SoCal weather.

I think next time I’ll sit out here and enjoy my tea and cakes.
