    This quaint tiny tea house is always worth a trip. We have been here a few times and always enjoy our visit. Although I feel that the prices for the different tea/food packages are a bit high, it is a special experience so we always come back. It is quiet and dainty inside and they now offer outdoor seating, which we didn't partake in due to the windy day. The tea selections are many and the variety of scones and tea sandwiches were flavorful. We will be back again! I have been here with my husband, who totally enjoyed it. This time I was with my daughters and they were very impressed with the presentation and service. Always a nice experience!

    The Old Lyme Inn is a classic New England setting. The wait staff was friendly and amiable. The Migration Madness Afternoon Tea was exquisite. Sandwiches, Scones, Petite Sweets and Harney & Sons Teas were presented beautifully and simply delicious. My favorites were ham biscuits, birdseed bark and lavender crème brûlée. Will definitely return on another day for dinner.
