"Come in as a guest, but leave as a friend." This is the beautiful (and, honestly, perfectly fitting) mantra of a delightful little slice of paradise we just happened to find. Have you ever thought, Boy, it would be nice to have a beautiful place to come, sip some tea, indulge in some amazing food, and lose track of time with friends? Well, we have so we set out to solve this mystery, and during this process, we found the Tea Room at Rustic Root. Did you know there are tea rooms in Indiana? There sure are - and the one at Rustic Root is pure perfection.
It may not look like it from the outside, but the Tea Room of Rustic Root is an elegant, magical experience pulled right out of the pages of a fairy tale.
We here at Only In Your State greatly value cherished experiences over possessions (if that wasn't already obvious), and let us tell you: this. Is. An. EXPERIENCE.
Ever wanted to have a tea party with your lady friends as an adult? Boom, done.
Dress the part and be prepared - you're in for a positively perfect afternoon with the girls.
Enjoy a top-notch menu with everything from light finger fare to incredibly savory and delicious entrees.
Seriously, you'd be amazed at how diverse the menu is for being as minimalist as it is. Enjoy soups, salads, sandwiches, brunch, lunch, desserts, and sometimes even...
...absolutely off-the-wall delicious and tender prime rib (typically on First Fridays).
Of course, there is so much more to this amazing little place than just a stellar menu and a cozy, elegant setting. It gets better, especially if you have little princesses at home who would love a tea party of their very own.
And even moreso if they would like that tea party to be hosted by a Disney princess (or other characters)!
The Tea Room of Rustic Root offers so many amazing, unique experiences that will create lifelong memories. It's not just a place to get a nice cuppa - it's also a cherished house of camaraderie and low-key fun for everyone.
So, truly, the Tea Room of Rustic Root lives up to its slogan.
You come for the tea having heard about the amazing experience - and you leave with new memories, new friends, and stronger bolds with old ones, too.
For all the info you'll need to plan a tea party, stop in and enjoy a meal, or anything else, you'll want to be sure to visit the official Tea Room of Rustic Root website. Want some more inspiration? Check out this wonderful restaurant in Indiana that's hidden in a wildlife refuge!
