Best celebratory lunch idea and great food and service to make it memorable! Loved the starter tea to sample. Really professional walking us through the tea selections and helping us navigate to what would work best for us. No request was ignored. Kids were given an amazing experience. Never rushed. Truly special and planning to return as soon as we can.

We had the most amazing time at the Mad Hatter Tea Party High Tea! From the delicious food and wonderful tea to the beautiful experience, everything was absolutely perfect. Our server, Etseg, truly made the experience extra special. Her warm smile, kindness, and incredible attention to detail were above and beyond. She made us feel so welcomed and cared for throughout the entire experience. Every staff member we encountered was friendly, kind, and attentive. The food was excellent, the tea was wonderful, and the whole afternoon was simply magical. I would highly recommend the Mad Hatter Tea Party to anyone looking for a fun, unique, and memorable afternoon experience. We absolutely loved it and can’t wait to go back!

Our party of four was seated before our reservation time. Our waiter was attentive and very polite. I ordered the filet mignon and it was perfectly done and so delicious! My husband and his friend had jambalaya and they loved it! The fourth member of our party had the turkey pot pie and it was amazing! Mt. Vernon Inn never disappoints!

    Although they were slow to seat guests waiting for their 11:30 reservations (they open for Sunday brunch at 11:30), the food and service were outstanding. Briley was our primary server and she was lovely — attentive without being intrusive. The setting was lovely with fall leaves and a wedding in the background.
