Afternoon Tea Vouchers will Replace Gift Cards in 2027

​

A little change is coming to gift-giving-  Beginning in 2027, traditional gift cards (including e-cards) will be giving way to something a little more special– Afternoon tea vouchers!  Choose a date (within a 6 month window) and the number of guests you'd like to treat, and we'll reserve their table and provide a pretty voucher for you to present to the lucky recipient. Because everything will be recorded with the prepaid reservation, there's no gift card to keep track of (or lose in a drawer 😂).  Plans can change, of course, so the rez may be moved to another available date with advance notice.   For now, traditional gift cards may still be purchased. See below for more information on gift cards.

How to purchase a physical gift card or send an e-card

You can stop into the shoppe (see our shoppe hours) to buy a physical gift card (we do not mail them) or send one via email to a lucky recipient!  If you're heading over and want to be sure we'll be here, feel free to text to double check: 617.775.9118

​

Before purchasing, here are some things to consider: 

  • Gift cards are not returnable.

  • Gift cards are not refundable for cash, except as required by law:  In MA, re-loadable gift cards that have been partially used and have a balance of five dollars ($5.00) or less, are redeemable for cash. 

  • Gift cards are not traceable if lost.  Please snap a picture of the back of the card, so we can look up the number, should it be lost. 

  • Because gift cards are not returnable, it is a good idea to consider a few things before you purchase (these are actual concerns voiced to us over the years, by people who did not want the gift card they received): 

    • Does the gift recipient like tea or Afternoon Tea or will they at least be interested to try it? 

    • We have a minimum age of 12.

    • Is the recipient a coffee drinker who will be disappointed that we don't serve coffee? 

    • There is typically a wait for a weekend reservation, will this work for the gift recipient?
