South Sound Tea Experiences Association |
|
Our Story |
|
We are a group of independent tea room owners who have come together to support each others’ common goal of promoting tea experiences in the south Puget Sound area of Pierce County, Washington.
Though we all offer menus of lunch and afternoon tea sets, each of us offers a different tea experience. We invite you to visit each of us, or select the one that seems to fit your tastes best. If you’ve seen one tea room, you haven’t seen them all! |
