The Talking Teacup
301 West Butler Avenue
Chalfont, PA 18914
So cute, you’ll want to pet it: a 250-year-old farmhouse filled with tables covered in mismatched teacups and teapots, where kids can order PB&J or ham-and-cheese tea sandwiches (and moms can get salads and scones) served with their very own pot of tea. The best part? A dress-up room upstairs where everyone can bejewel and befur and behat for high tea.

Review
I went to the Talking Teacup with my sister the day I had to take my 18 year old cat to be cremated. I had tea with my sister, her daughter-in-law and Marlene Tegge, the owner of the Bucks Co Antique Gallery adjacent to the tea room. It was such a lovely place, and a nice place to spend a few hours after the sadness of losing my beloved cat. A few months later I returned with some ladies from my tea group, the Victorian Ladies Tea Society of Phila. The tea room is charming, the food very good, and the service was exemplary. I bought a small packet of Harney and Sons "Mothers Bouquet" The only draw back to this lovely tea room is that one needs a car to get there, it is on a very heavily traveled winding street, and there is no sidewalk. Train station nearby, but due to the problems with traffic, rather inaccessible except by car.
