Adorabelle was such a cute little tea room! The place has a warm, cozy and girly feel to it. Definitely a place that must be revisited! The building used to be a old courtroom in the historic village from our local city.

The Verdict:
Afternoon tea at Adorabelle was both charming and quaint. The napkin roses were a nice touch and romantic french music in the background added to the ambiance. We loved that they offered little honey blocks on top of regular sugar! Cera preferred the savories over the sweets but we both agreed that the fresh-baked, still hot scones were delicious! The only downside of this experience was that our afternoon tea was cut short after an hour as they were fully booked that day and needed to set the tables for the next service. We usually spend at least an hour and a half, to two hours at tea so we were sad about our short teatime =(. Otherwise, at $23 for adults, and $16 for children, Adorabelle is a great place for afternoon tea! Be sure to check out Steveston Village while you're there!
