On Monday I travelled to Salt Lake City for an evening work event. After getting checked in to my hotel, it was time for a late lunch. My hotel was literally on the same block as the Beehive tearoom - how convenient!
Look close...do you notice anything different about this tea shop window?
They have a patio, yes, but that's not it. Keep looking...Barry this one's for you...
They serve beer!
This was a multi-purpose tea shop catering to many crowds and it was literally abuzz when I arrived. They actually had a library of wedding books and a bride to be was there with friends. Andrea - this pic is for you as you are the chai connoisseur - they claim to have the best in SLC.
It's a bit Alice in Wonderland - which way should I go? Lots of little rooms - I dined in the Chinese Lantern room.
They have a seriously cute counter and displays.
They also have these adorable cups and saucers for sale. I came home with a T-shirt.
It was not high tea time so I enjoyed a tomato cream cheese croissant with potato salad. By the time my food arrived, it was quiet, just me and my own little tearoom.
I sipped their "Beehive Cream and Honey" black tea - so good I bought some to bring home and a seriously amazing lemon poppy seed cake as noticed by the nibble.

And here's a silly picture of me drinking the tea.
Have you ever seen a music video filmed in a tearoom? Check it out:
I thought it was very cool! You get a good look around the tearoom too!
Finally, one block away, I noticed this establishment:
Hmm, I wonder if there is a connection? The wives can send the men down the street.
That...is beyond cool!!!! Thanks for sher-ing!
