Tea Parlor

We are very excited to see our friends and welcome new customers as well! We will have indoor seating in our Tea Room & Carriage House plus outdoor seating (weather permitting – please realize our outside porch is not screened so you may encounter outdoor pests and if you reserve an outside table and should decide to be inside we have no guarantee of a table) by reservation only. Our Carriage House is always handicap accessible, however, our Tea Room is not. First and foremost please be self-aware of your current health as we ask anyone experiencing COVID-19 symptoms such as fever, sore throat, new loss of taste or smell, cough, shortness of breath or flu-like discomfort to visit us another day when you are well. Please understand that most reservations are for 90 minutes – on slower weekdays we are more than happy to let you stay at your leisure but on busier days like Saturdays and Events (listed at the bottom) the time window for your table is 90 minutes to allow for other guests to enjoy our tea as well. We thank you for your patience and understanding.

The Silver Fountain Inn is now serving lunch daily Monday through Saturday opening at 11:30am & seating until 3pm (please see our closings for private functions and special menu days/months listed below, WE ARE CLOSED ON SUNDAYS). Our Menu offerings change monthly and offer a wide range of variety and choices – many months may offer special themes only – if you have made your reservation way in advance, please check back closer to your reservation for menu updates as our regular menu is not always available! Our regular menu consists of simple luncheon fare like sandwiches, quiche, soup and salads to the fancy “Duchess” which is our 3-tiered platter of tea sandwiches, scone and desserts but our themed months typically only offer tiers. We do have Gluten Free options as well – please allow a 24-hour notice for optimal choices!

As seating is limited, reservations are preferred to allow for optimal service and selections. Please do so by calling 603-750-4200 or by reserving directly through our website through Open Table using the button below.  Please see more pictures of our elegant Tea Room in our Gallery or see our Virtual Tour.

We are the perfect venue for wedding and baby showers, birthday parties, and anniversary celebrations. In addition, meet here for business and pleasure luncheons or just getting together with a couple friends and enjoying lunch in our elegant setting. Please feel free to dress either casual or fancy with hats and boas! Children are welcome but must stay seated as other guests are enjoying their tea as well.

Look for our special events and themed luncheons from Tea Leaf Reading, Mother’s Day, Victorian Courtship, Mad Hatter, Valentines, Downton Abbey Inspired, Wizard of Oz, Jane Austen, Willie Wonka, Agatha Christie, Harry Potter and many more. Please be advised that our regular monthly menu may not be available on special event days. Please also see our “Events & Functions” tab for our upcoming Themed Dinner Theaters and Murder Mysteries!
