You don’t have to travel to England to have a genuine Afternoon Tea. You can find one right here in the Baltimore suburbs—at St Stephen’s annual Garden Party and Fête, Saturday, 4 May 2019, from 11:00 AM to the last seating at 2:00 PM. (Note that the last seating is an hour before the end of the Garden Party itself, to give you a chance to enjoy a leisurely tea.) Tea is served in Quimby Hall (the Parish Hall), with continuous service for the duration of the party. For $15 per person, you get an assortment of tea sandwiches; fresh baked scones with cream, jam, and lemon curd; dessert bites; and, of course, a bottomless pot of tea.
Before or after your tea, be sure to check out the other booths and activities at the Garden Party: the Portobello Road White Elephant Booth, with some first-class jumble; the wheels of chance (if your number comes up, you’ll win a bottle of booze!); an authentic Punch & Judy show; and a May Pole, complete with dance.
Saint Stephen’s is located at 11856 Mays Chapel Rd, Timonium, MD, and you can find more information on the Garden Party at gardenparty.ststeve.com.
Hope to see you there!
St Stephen’s is handicap-accessible.
