Afternoon Tea is what we’re known for, and what we do best. 🫖✨

Our 3, 4 and 5-course experiences are made for slowing down, sipping something lovely and savoring every bite. From delicate tea savories and freshly baked scones to delicious tea treats, everything is made right here in our kitchen with fresh, quality ingredients.

We’ve spent more than two years perfecting an Afternoon Tea experience we’re incredibly proud of, and you won’t find one quite like it nearby.

Beautiful china. Elegant environment. Delicious bites. Quality tea. No rushing. 💕👑

Come see what it means to dine like royalty.

I was delighted to open Facebook this morning and see this absolutely lovely article posited about the tearoom on Explore Illinois. What a total surprise and what a genuine honor to have our little tearoom be acknowledged in such a thoughtful way. The article highlights so much of what makes our tearoom special, and shares the heart and soul we've put into every aspect of our special space. Thank you so very much to Explore Illinois for the wonderful article, the kind words and the acknowledgment. And thank you, always, to our guests who make every day all the more special. 💛

With sincere gratitude,
Michelle

Tucked away in a quiet corner of Illinois sits a little spot where time seems to slow down and every cup feels like a small celebration.

Some days can feel a little daunting as a small business owner, and the last few weeks have left me feeling a bit drained.

Today, a guest visiting from New Jersey stopped into the tearoom after finding us online while she was in the area for work. We had a lovely chat, and after she left, I found this little note waiting for me.

And, admittedly, it made me tear up. 🥹

We never really know what someone else is carrying, or how something as simple as a few kind words can completely change the course of their day.

Today reminded me that sunny days aren't always the ones with blue skies. Sometimes they're simply the days when someone unexpectedly makes things feel a little lighter. ☀️

Thank you, Karen from New Jersey, for your kindness and for spending part of your day with us. You added a little sunshine to my week, and I hope somehow this post finds its way back to you. 💛

Dinner is served...and the dead have stories to tell. 🕯️💀

Join us for Dinner with the Dead, a dark and delicious evening filled with strange deaths, eerie history, peculiar tales, and the dearly departed. Throughout the night, guests will enjoy four courses, each paired with a themed mocktail and its own morbid story.

Some tales are chilling. Some are bizarre. Some are so strange you’ll swear they couldn’t possibly be true.

🖤 Friday, October 23
🕯️ 7:00 PM
🍽️ Four Courses
🥂 Four Paired Mocktails
💀 Four Macabre Tales
🎟️ $55 per guest

Reservations are required. Gather your bravest friends and join us for one unforgettable evening where every course comes with a story...and not everyone in it made it to dessert. 🪦

We love being part of your special moments and celebrations. 🤍

This month, we’re lucky enough to host several private events for our guests, and yesterday afternoon we hosted a beautiful bridal shower celebrating a glowing bride-to-be! 💍🫖✨

From bridal and baby showers to birthdays, anniversaries and intimate celebrations, we love helping create a setting that feels just as special as the occasion itself.

Planning a celebration of your own? We’d be honored to be part of it. To learn more about our private event packages and hosting your gathering at The Royal Tea Room, visit us online. 💐
