Whistling Kettle (troy) - City of Troy

First time here just a few days ago, and I'm looking forward to my next visit. Menu is just enough choices to put together an afternoon tea. I had broccoli quiche, salad, and a lemon drop scone along with a personal pot of tea. All was lovely, including the service.

I had the brunch tower lobster bisque, bacon, egg cheese sandwich, and berries mix crepe paired with mango peach white tea. It was so good. Quick service, very clean and trendy. 10 out of 10 for me.

I enjoyed this little shop. Not so little actually when you consider their tea selection but I was in the area for a few hours and needed somewhere to wait. This was perfect. The scenery around the restaurant is beautiful and looks like its own little world. Walking in you’re immediately greeted with almost an endless selection of tea and merchandise. Seating is diverse between outside and inside. I thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere. The only reason I took one star off is for the service. My waitress was so nice so was everyone else, but it was… lackluster? My waitress disappeared completely often enough that I had to politely ask another for help when needed and eventually she completely left for the day without notice. I get it, when its your time to leave then yes, leave. But I wasnt given the curtesy of being informed someone else would take over. And the wait time for the food was extensive. There may have been an issue that came up and that’s okay I guess but considering this was my only visit, Id still come back when I’m in the area. The food was good, the tea was delicious and again, the staff were friendly. I guess it was an off day.

A great cafe. No complains about any of the food I got. The Quiche, Soup, and crepe were all divine. The crepe especially was fantastic, I got the bananna foster, which is bannanas caramelized in butter with brown sugar and rum, and filled with their scone cream sauce. It was delicious. Highly reccomend.

Aside from having a variety of great teas, the food here is delicious. You can even get a three-course meal for one low price. The interior of the restaurant is quite nice. We've also had good experiences with the servers. If you're visiting Troy, this is a good place to check out. If you live in Troy, hopefully you've already checked it out!
