Crema's Take

“Lanier House is a tea room that treats every visit like an occasion, with meticulously themed menus and an aesthetic so polished that people book it for milestone celebrations—birthdays, anniversaries, fundraisers. The tea selection and pastries are genuinely excellent, but what keeps locals coming back is the staff's willingness to make you feel genuinely cared for, whether you're there for a casual afternoon or something that matters.”

What to expect

Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
