The Garden View Tea Room is located on the Ground Floor of the Grand Floridian Hotel in Disney's Grand Floridian Resort. It is open from 2pm to 4.30pm daily and offers stunning views of the beautifully manicured resort gardens.
The Tea Room provides the most wonderful British tradition of 'Afternoon Tea'. Offering a huge range of teas from around the globe(both traditional and quirky) coupled with a selection of sandwiches, scones and desserts to die for, it is an ideal way of taking a break from the hustle and bustle of the parks.
Set in a lovely and fitting environment, the atmosphere is quite quaint and relaxed but certainly not stilted. It's a great place to unwind a little and chat away, with the background being filled with the gentle noises of teaspoon on china etc. The service is spot on and the knowledgeable and friendly staff will help you decide on what tea to choose as there so many to select from.
There are several afternoon tea packages on offer consisting of a choice of tea, a selection of sandwiches, pastries and desserts, you can add additional items such as port or wine, cheeses etc. A modern twist on the menu allows guests to honour one of Britain's very own special treasures, the 'Princess Kate Tea' - Spring Tea served with classic potted shrimp, a selection of cheese and biscuits, seasonal fruits, a scone, jam tart and delicate pastries, finished off with a glass of Champagne and a choice of tea. There is also the The Grand Tea, The Buckingham Palace or Gentleman's Tea Platter to choose from.
The 'Mrs.Potts Tea', is available for Children and offers a selection of tea sandwiches which have more 'child friendly' fillings such as ham, cheese, tuna salad or peanut butter and jelly. It also includes a pastry for dessert and a special cup of 'magical dark tea', which is really chocolate milk!
The restaurant gets booked up quite quickly so an advanced reservation is a MUST.
