I HIGHLY recommend Sarah’s Southern Tea Room! I took my daughter for some mother/daughter time and because she loves tea parties! We had a fabulous time! We had the opportunity to try different teas and desserts-everything was delicious! I loved the atmosphere, Catina was a gracious host. We are looking forward to our next visit soon. Come visit Sumter’s newest gem!

We recently celebrated my mom’s 75th Birthday Par-Tea at Sarah Southern Tea Room, and it was an absolutely delightful experience from start to finish! Sarah provided professional, friendly service that made the event feel both elegant and personal.
