Viejos Tiempos

Viejos Tiempos Review

Teahouses abound in this area, but none have more tranquil surroundings than this one, which sits in a beautifully kept garden. In summer hummingbirds hover over the flowers, while tea and cakes are served at heavy wooden tables set with floral-patterned china. Inside, the chintz-and-lace drapes and cloying red cloths look like something your great-grandma would love, but at least the open fireplace keeps things toasty in winter. After years of making some of the best cakes in town, Viejos Tiempos has added (bizarrely) Mexican dishes to the menu, but it's the sweets that remain the main draw here.
