Alice's Tea Cup

Profile

Rebelling against the notion that tea must be confined to the afternoon, this wonderland serves breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert. All that plus over a hundred teas, a takeout counter, a private party room, and enough tchotchkes to drive any Hatter mad. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld

This relative newcomer to the scene (the cute salon is a great spot for bridal showers as well) specializes in imaginative designs featuring flowers, butterflies, or mod dots. Resident cake designer Betina Estela specializes in painted-on designs. From $8 per serving; minimum $300.
