The Huntington Rose Garden Tea Room San Marino Reviews
This is my go-to lunch spot with my girlfriends.
The service is great. The tea and accompaniments are exceptional. The venue is centered in a beautiful garden in the Huntington Library. I love this place.
My last review was 6 years ago, so I thought I'd update
My last review was 6 years ago, so I thought I'd update this one. It was my mom's birthday again. My partner and I have membership to the Huntington, which had expired like, 5 months ago, so we were able to use this opportunity to renew our

Have been looking forward to returning to the Rose Garden Tea Room since the renovation and finally visited today for their afternoon tea. The scones were delicious. There's a nice balance of savory and sweet bites. Staff is friendly. Envi

Amazing to have vegan options!! Tea time! A certain admission is needed to get access to where the tea garden room is too. It's a whole section where general admission don't have access to? Attire: People are dressed for a fun event, chill

This is my first time here since they reopened the Rose Garden Tea Room. What a different experience! I wouldn't necessarily say better, but different. Whereas the old tea room had a grandmother's sitting room with doiles vibe and a large b
I came here for my bday.
They could see me earlier. There is GF menu they were sold out of some teas. The waiter wasn't great but the runner was. I was able to accommodate some food alterations smoked salmon no caviar. The tea I poured myself. It was mint really refre
The high tea is overpriced.
The pastry with some chocolate melted when the sun was on us . It's nice to sit outside while looking at the garden if only they have a shade

Ive been here 4 times and my most recent visit will be my last. If you enjoy afternoon tea, then visit the Huntington gardens and then enjoy afternoon tea elsewhere. There are many locations to choose from in pasadena that will be of better qualit
Now that it is renovated it is worth visiting.
I like coming here for tea on special occasions and now they have outdoor seating. You should definitely reserve your table in advance and be advised that you must also pay to enter the gardens, your reservation to the tea house does not get you in t
Angelina, the server was outstanding.
She checked on us, brought us plenty of ice, it was a really hot day. Sound . Excellent ! Food. Was tasty but could have been fresher. It's ok to make food ahead but bread must be covered. Our bread was hard, scones were like rock, and the mini
Would not return
I love tea. I'm a reviewer comparing this experience to stellar tea services I've had in Boston. The service and menu are shockingly limited for its price point. I was disappointed that we weren't offered to try different teas after fi
Disappointing!
This new "improved" tea room was a big disappointment. The new Tea Room is austere and modern, not nearly as charming as the old one was. It was my friends 1st time and she was wondering what the big whoop was about it. The food was fine,
Honest Review - Don't Go!
Avoid you are European, Australian or from elsewhere and have seen real English high tea. The roses were ordinary looking, not really pretty or special. The tea sets were in pretty, no special ornamental shape, painting or colours. Just bland whit
Expensive and worth every penny!
A real bucket list place to eat. Many fabulous pastries, scones, and finger sandwiches. Indescribably delicious! You get to choose your own tea and since it was over 100 degrees, I had it iced. The waitress even brought me a piece of chocolate cake
No Reason to ever go back
I visit the Huntington 4 times a year to see the gardens in every season. High tea is often part of the treat. I waited a long time for the Huntington Rose Garden Tea Room to reopen for my cherished tradition. Once the newly renovated facility ready,
I love the Huntington's Rose Garden Tea Room and so glad
I love the Huntington's Rose Garden Tea Room and so glad they offer a gluten free menu. The Gluten Free scones are so yummy and I would never know they were GF. However the buckwheat bread is very dense and very flavorful. It is so flavorful, it o

Great ambiance! It's a long walk from the entrance so wear comfortable shoes. Think 10 minute walk and it's mostly sunny. Indoor AC and we got the traditional which is more than enough food . I liked the steak sandwich and the cucumber. The signatu
Such a lovely tea time with my mom! We got the Huntington
Such a lovely tea time with my mom! We got the Huntington Tea which was absolutely worth the upgrade. The champagne was a generous pour and the lobster roll was delicious. The service was impeccable and we got seated exactly at our reservation time.
This used to be a treasure.
Then it had an $11 million facelift. Gone is the quaint buffet to which one could make unlimited trips for delicious food. Gone is the cottage atmosphere. This is like the sandwich shop off a hotel lobby, with gray paneled walls and high ceilings and

Visiting the Huntington Gardens for their Rose Garden Tea
Visiting the Huntington Gardens for their Rose Garden Tea Service was a delightful first-time experience. The ample parking is a plus, but weekends can be crowded, so plan accordingly. A walk around the garden is an absolute must, either before or af

This place was great, server was amazing! So on point timed everything perfectly. Left tea and was actually full! I feel like I'm hungry still at alot of other places. Had many options, did make reservations about 6 weeks out. Super pretty place, vi

Post remodel: the bathrooms are mixed gender.
You walk in the main door. There is a row of sinks on the right and a row of stalls on the left. As I entered a man came out of a stall. We made eye contact. He was embarassed and so was I. I will never go back and I would never allow my daughter in
Cant complain about the service and the beautiful gardens
Cant complain about the service and the beautiful gardens but too expensive and food quality is sub par. Ticket for the park plus 75 per person comes to over 100 dollars per person after tips and taxes. Food is really underwhelming and the china and
A rejuvenating place to recharge the batteries.
Expansive gardens, a conservatory, library and galleries. Children have an interactive garden all their own to explore. Chines and Japanese cherry blossoms are in full bloom.
Amazing scenery and amazing price for what you get.
A lot of Tea rooms are expensive, $80+ For $62, the selection was amazing. Recommend sitting outside for a nice view, You do need to pay to enter the park however, which is where the tea room is situated. The service was really friendly, this man
What a gem of a place! The petite sandwiches and cakes were
What a gem of a place! The petite sandwiches and cakes were wonderful! A special shout out to Efrim for his outstanding service at our table.
Although it rained and no roses yet.
I definitely saw the potential for the gard. The tea room was an exquisite experience. The food, service and ambiance was great. The art exhibit was just as nice. Me and my girls had the best time. I will definitely go back with a different group of
Exquisite.
It's pricey for sure but the quality matches. Our server was so helpful, friendly and professional. She even gave us fresh cups of our chosen tea blend in to-go cups when we left. The women hostess' could learn a thing or two from our gal. They were

It's been a long time since the last time - and in between there was a whole pandemic and a complete remodeling of the tea room and of its concept. For some reasons, the rating on YELP is fairly low. I/we found it absolutely wonderful. Both the insid
I really wanted to love the Tea Garden.
I'm a big fan of the Huntington overall but stopped going to the Tea Garden eons ago because the food was disappointing. Flash forward to today: I had high hopes for the redesigned menu, especially with the new and improved building, but the food was
My friend and I had the traditional tea.
The layout is a huge improvement from the old tea room. The old tea room was very crowded, tables too close together. Plenty of space so you're not bumping chairs. I love the prints sprinkled throughout the main room. I'm not a huge fan of tea, b
Beautiful setting, decent food, spotty service.
This was our second visit to the renovated tea room. Same experiences both times. Very nice overall but the service really needs tweaking. The hosts are just not very welcoming or even friendly. We arrived at our reserved time on the dot but waited o
Overpriced, mediocre tea; terrible management
I went to tea at the Huntington Gardens' new tea house with 28 friends on Friday, December 15. The tea and snacks were fine overall: the Huntington signature tea is good, the rose tea is delicious, the earl grey creme is excellent, and the greedy t
Good and bad
It was a pleasant experience, the food was good and the tea (Huntington blend) delicious. But it is very expensive and one of the main problems is that "Open Table", the website for reserving a table, DOES NOT WORK. We came and had a table
There's room for improvement
If the Huntington's tea room weren't at the Huntington, I'd give it three stars. I'm adding the extra star because being able to walk around the gardens and galleries before and after tea adds immensely to the experience. I had tea at the Huntington

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to The Huntington Rose Garden Tea Room San Marino at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the The Huntington Rose Garden Tea Room San Marino page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at The Huntington Rose Garden Tea Room San Marino to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at The Huntington Rose Garden Tea Room San Marino!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
