Review from Kaisa M.

I second the pros of the previous reviewer - the prices are decent and it's a cute place. The experience is what you come for and they deliver. The food is quite good as well; I usually share the "Robinson-Bray Tea" with a friend and the scones always warrant exclamations of deliciousness. The tea itself is yummy too. They never seem to have a problem refilling your teapots (though I've never seen them do it more than once), so you do get your money's worth.
I've never had much of a problem finding parking nearby, but it might be a different story on the weekends. -
Review from Joeie K.

OOH! First reviewer! ;)
Just because I know there's better tea rooms at comparable prices, I'm not a fan. But granted, this is still a good, cute tea room with decent food for a decent price.
Pros:
- cute, eclectic, kitschy environment
- decent prices; you can get away with a tea "set" (i.e. scone, a few sandwiches, a little cupcake here and there) with a brewed tea for around $20 (which is a good price for afternoon teas)
- cute experience
Cons:
- impossible to find parking; they have a little lot to the side, but it's hard to park in Streetsville (a quaint old town feel neighbourhood in Mississauga) unless you're lucky enough to find street parking
- you should always make reservations because they only bake/cook enough for the reservations; and even if they bake a bit more and you do a drop-in, they're not that welcoming
Some other miscellaneous notes about afternoon teas: boys don't generally like them that much because there's not that much food involved; however, the food that is served (albeit smaller portions), is quite filling because it's quite rich, but still... I think... boys like meat (?!)
A high tea place I *would* recommend though is the afternoon tea at the Old Mill Inn & Spa. Comparable prices, but better environment and tastier food.
