A tea party in Albuquerque at the Downtown Historic Bed and Breakfast is an event you will not soon forget. When you come for tea, you get to enjoy the ambiance of the beautiful Victorian dining room and parlor. You will also be served on a collection of unique antique china, silver, white linen nakins, and tableclothes . Also, weather permitting, we can set your tea up in our beautiful backyard, complete with fountain and a variety of flowers and vegetation surrounding you. It is the perfect setting for your ladies' club event, book club luncheon, small bridal or baby shower, or just to get together and enjoy a special time with your friends. We ask that you call ahead or email for reservations.
