Established more than 27 years ago by Edmund and Mary Fry, the Rose Tree Cottage is a traditional English Tea Room and shop bringing the best of Britain to America. Set in an English style court of cottages, the 'Rose Tree Cottage English Village Shop and Tea Garden' is the original tearoom in Pasadena, California - helping start the tea revolution in America. The shop has been featured in L.A. Magazine and Victoria Magazine for their teas and tours. Our afternoon tea was named one of the "Top Ten Tea Experiences in America" by U.S.A. Today.

To step across the threshold of Rose Tree Cottage is to give one's self a true gift...more than just a respite from the daily grind, it is a treat for the heart, the soul, the eyes...a lifting of the spirit. As Edmund Fry elegantly shoots his cuffs and lifts the velvet rope for you to be seated, his dashing demeanor and charming wit never fail to delight. Enter Mary Fry...an amazing woman...steadfast, brilliant, lovely. She brings her whole delightful self to every seating. After nearly three decades of receiving her tender ministrations at afternoon tea, my heart still skips a beat when she dawns her mitt to pull those steaming scones out of the Aga. No two people ever more elegantly or faithfully represented the time honored tradition of tea. Every detail is just right! A life not lived is a life that has not had tea with the Fry's and their wonderful staff at Rose Tree Cottage! CP www.carolparks.com
Rose Tree Cottage is the best tea experience ever! I takes me home to Ireland. All the traditions and none of the "put on" frills. How lovely to have tea properly.
I LOVE "Rose Tree Cottage"! I always feel like I'm going into another world- an English one, of course. It is so cozy and warm and they have the best scones in the world! Edmund and Mary are lovely. The atmosphere is perfect. It's the first place I think of when it comes to a proper English tea!
good food, excellent tea, great shop with authentic English presentation!
great presentation, ambience, and tea-licious offerings. Very authentic compared to what I have enjoyed in England.
BY FAR, the best and most special tea in all of Southern California. Edmund and Mary are tireless in their authenticity of presentation and grace. The BEST scones West of London! The ambience is Divine. Go there on a foggy Sunday afternoon and pretend you are in the Cotswolds .............
I consider myself Rose Tree's godmother as I worked there on opening day and on and off thereafter. I have watched the shop grow, and know first hand of Mary's and Edmund's commitment and attention to detail to the business, and of their devotion to their customers. Long live Rose Tree Cottage!!
I have visited most of the tea houses in Southern California and they, by far, are the best. The tea was amazing, food was excellent and the decor is astounding. I also love the selection of British foods available for sale. I will absolutely be a regular at this establishment
They are the loveliest people, with the most charming atmosphere and wonderful tea!
You think you're in England, but here in So Cal- treated and served with the warmest hospitality. They make you feel special!
The food is delicious and Edmund and Mary are charming.
The atmosphere, the tea, the whole experience is marvelous - and the people are wonderful.....
Mary & Edmund Fry treat RTC like a home. They welcome you like family and it is a place of tea and fun! Edmund has fabulous stories which make tea and yummy food a treat! I love RTC!
The best tea house I have ever had the honor to visit The proprietors are hard working,proud,yet humbled. It feels to me when I visit there little tea room and shop that I truly am in England for the afternoon and having tea from the pages of a story book.
Best personal customer service of any place in town. Great selection of British food and merchandise. Love the cat
Simply authentic English Tea.
Better than most of the tea-shops in the UK.
An establishment is only as good as it's proprietors, and this one has risen to the top (like the lovely cream they serve) because of Edmund & Mary Fry; congratulations on a job so well done!
The best 'afternoon cream tea' ever!
Rose Tree Cottage is a place where you enjoy the atmosphere of tea culture with friends and family members of all ages and gender. A FANTASTIC place to be in when you want time for you and your loved ones.
