With multiple photos of afternoon high teas on my Living My Best Life Pinterest Board, it only made sense to pursue a beautiful afternoon tea. Enjoying an afternoon high tea is something that I have been wanting to experience, but never made it a priority to do so until recently.
With visions of adorable teacups and vintage teapots in my head, I decided to plan a date with my mom and enjoy an afternoon high tea at Tilly’s Tea Room at Saks Fifth Ave in Indianapolis, Indianapolis.
Tilly’s Tea Room, Saks Fifth Avenue, Indianapolis
If you are unfamiliar with Tilly’s Tea Room, it is located on the 3rd floor of Saks Fifth Avenue in the Fashion Mall in Indianapolis, Indiana. The address is 8701 Keystone Crossing in Indianapolis.
The first thing you notice when you walk into Tilly’s Tea Room is the atmosphere of elegance and classiness that fills the room, exactly the vibe of my Living My Best Life Pinterest Board.
Afternoon High Tea
Afternoon High Tea is an elegant and classy way to spend an afternoon with your significant other, family, or friends, celebrating any occasion from a birthday or anniversary to just being thankful for the presence of loved ones in your life- like my mom.
At Tilly’s Tea Room, the goal is to provide you with the ultimate high tea experience at an affordable price in an elegant and intimate setting that will make you feel special and cared for throughout your entire visit.
We certainly felt cared for as we were getting seated. Once we were seated and received our menu, I asked about the afternoon high tea but realized that we were too later for the afternoon high tea. I simply forgot about the time change as we crossed the Illinois/Indiana state line.
Because of this, we weren’t able to have afternoon high tea. Instead, we still enjoyed the short amount of time that we had there.
A Simple Lunch with Tea at Tilly’s
We opted for the soup of the day and a pot of tea. The soup was a delicious soup with chicken and the tea was just hot enough and tasted pretty good.
Although we did feel a bit rushed since we only had about half an hour to enjoy ourselves there, but it was still a delightful experience.
We were encouraged to visit again, but to make reservations to have an enjoyable and successful afternoon high tea in the future.
Final Thoughts
It was great to spend some beautiful downtime with my mom. I didn’t feel like we ate a lot and were able to keep our calorie count under control by skipping scones and having a lighter meal with tea.
When’s the last time that you’ve enjoyed an afternoon high tea?
