Tea for Two is a bakery in China Grove that hosts Afternoon Tea the second Saturday of each month.
Reservations are required with seating at 11:00, 1:30 and 3:00; total cost is $27.94 (includes tea, tax, and gratuity).
I made a reservation for 1:30, and they had a table for two waiting for us.
Cherry Blossom herbal, and a vanilla black tea were the two preselected options, but we were able to have a different one if we so chose. We ordered one pot of the vanilla black, and one of Lady Gray.
A pot of the preselected tea was not left on the table. The waitress made her rounds with a new pot, refilling cups. My Lady Gray is in the blue floral pot, which stayed on our table.

| I think this is my first time drinking out of a square cup. |

| Scones were served separate from the rest of the fare |
There were two scone choices - one sweet (candied orange, cardamom), and one savory (smoked Gouda and herb) with fig marmalade and cream cheese. We got one of each and split them.
