This cute little tea house next to the Brunswick post office is a nice little place for tea or lunch (I can't speak about their dinner menu). I can imagine sitting down with a pot of tea (there is a large selection to choose from) during one of those freezing cold Maine winters, springs, and falls. For summer, the iced teas are quite refreshing. For the kids, there are little board games to pass the time while adults might enjoy the evening music series. There are some items that don't change but the menu does get a new look every day.

Pictured to the left is their seafood sampler with cooked scallops, shrimp and mussels in a light cream sauce and smoked salmon. The dish came with a small side salad and bread. A tasty meal but a bit on the small side and maybe just a tad expensive. Still, worth the money if you want a nice, light lunch.

Pictured to the right is also one of their salads with walnuts, goat cheese, and grapefruit. Very refreshing dish and the side of cold cucumber soup also made the hot summer day an enjoyable one.
