The Veranda Tea Room
Afternoon Tea at The Veranda Historic Inn
There are few places better suited for afternoon tea than a 120-year-old Southern inn.
The Veranda Tea Room brings the timeless tradition of afternoon tea to one of Senoia’s most historic settings, combining beautiful teas, artisanal scones, delicate savory bites and petite desserts with the warmth and charm of The Veranda Historic Inn.
Come for tea. Stay for the afternoon.
Take Time for Tea
Slow down, settle in and stay awhile.
At The Veranda Tea Room, afternoon tea is about more than what’s in the cup. It’s a chance to gather around the table, enjoy something beautiful and spend a little time together.
Our tea experience pairs organic loose-leaf teas with a rotating selection of artisanal scones, savory bites, tea sandwiches and beautifully presented sweets.
Because sometimes, the occasion is simply making time for one another.
A Taste of The Veranda Tea Room
Expect a menu designed to be enjoyed slowly, shared around the table and occasionally photographed before anyone is allowed to take the first bite.
Artisanal Scones
Artisanal scones served with lemon curd and Devonshire cream, with flavors such as lavender lemon, vanilla rose, cranberry orange, blueberry lemon, raspberry lemon, coconut pineapple and almond chocolate chunk.
Savory Bites
Classic chicken salad croissants, cucumber canapés, quiche, blackberry cucumber skewers, radish on rye and other beautifully presented savory selections.
Petite Sweets
French macarons, madeleines, fruit tartlets, cream puffs, petite parfaits, French meringues and other rotating treats complete the table.
Organic Loose-Leaf Tea
A thoughtfully selected collection of teas, served as tea should be: slowly, beautifully and in good company.
The Veranda Partners with House of Eteaquette
The Veranda Tea Room is being created in partnership with House of Eteaquette, bringing together the timeless setting of The Veranda with a thoughtfully curated afternoon tea experience.
Together, we're creating something elegant without being stuffy, traditional without feeling old-fashioned, and distinctly at home at The Veranda.

The Creative Spirit Behind the Tea
Behind the experience is Keisha, whose love of tea, hospitality and beautiful presentation is helping bring The Veranda Tea Room to life.
From carefully selected teas and beautifully presented food to the small details that make an afternoon feel special, Keisha's vision is centered on creating an experience that feels warm, memorable and worth slowing down for.
Because afternoon tea isn't really about the tea alone. It's about taking a little time, sitting across from someone you enjoy and making an ordinary afternoon feel like an occasion.
More Than Afternoon Tea
Some afternoons deserve a little more imagination.
The Veranda Tea Room will also become a setting for themed teas, seasonal experiences, private gatherings and special events throughout the year.
Birthdays. Bridal showers. Baby showers. Mother’s Day. Holiday teas. An afternoon with friends.
Or simply an excuse to dress up and do something different.
At The Veranda, tea can be the occasion.
Tea in a Place With a Story
For 120 years, people have gathered at The Veranda.
They’ve celebrated here, stayed here, shared meals here and spent long afternoons talking on the porch.
The Veranda Tea Room continues that tradition in a new way.
Enjoy afternoon tea surrounded by the character of a historic inn that has been welcoming people since 1906, then stay awhile, explore the property or take a walk through downtown Senoia.
