Children's Tea at The Russian Tea Room

Children's Tea at The Russian Tea Room

If dressing up for afternoon tea is right up your little one’s alley, I highly recommend the Children’s Tea at The Russian Tea Room as a special treat during your NYC vacation. The tea (or hot chocolate!) & finger foods are delicious & the over-the-top decor is serious eye candy. We went for my daughter’s birthday a couple years ago (see my blog post with more details about the experience), and I loved how the waiter seemed genuinely interested in showing my daughter and her friends the giant glass bear fishbowl (yes, really) and Faberge egg on display. Quite an experience!
