A little perspective from one Tea Room owner to our community… ❤️

I saw another Tea Room announce that they will no longer be open as a traditional restaurant and will instead operate for private events only. And I have to say—I completely understand.

Small, unique Tea Rooms are disappearing, and there is a side of this business that customers don’t always see.

Everyone LOVES the Tea Room at Christmas. 🎄 They want reservations for Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day and all of the special occasions throughout the year. And when those dates fill up, we sometimes hear, “Well, I guess we’ll have to find somewhere else to go.”

But here is the hard truth:

If you want your favorite small Tea Room to be here at Christmas, you have to support it when it isn’t Christmas.

A small business cannot survive on a handful of busy holidays each year. The lights stay on in January. Payroll still happens in February. Insurance, utilities, food costs and all of the other expenses continue through the slower months, too.

We need you on an ordinary Wednesday in March. We need you for lunch with a friend in June. We need you on those quiet days in August just as much as we need you during Christmas.

I say this with so much love and gratitude for the customers who do support us throughout the year. You are the reason small, independently owned places like ours are still able to create those magical holiday experiences everyone looks forward to.

So when you see a beloved small restaurant or Tea Room reduce its hours, change its business model, or close altogether, please remember: supporting small isn’t something we can save for special occasions.

If you love having unique little places in your community, visit them throughout the year. Bring a friend. Celebrate an ordinary Tuesday. Buy the lunch. Order the dessert. Call in for Take Out! ❤️

Because we can’t wait until Christmas to support the places we want to still be here at Christmas.

And to everyone who continues to walk through our doors all year long—thank you. You truly are what keeps the kettle on. 🫖💕
