The name Brooklyn High Low refers to our take on two distinct English traditions: Low Tea and High Tea. Low Tea emerged in the mid-1830s as a light afternoon snack to tide the upper class over until dinner, which was enjoyed at low tables arranged with light sandwiches, petit fours and elegant china. High Tea, on the other hand, was traditionally a full meal meant to replenish laborers upon their

return home from their physically demanding jobs. Brooklyn High Low pulls from both traditions to offer a classic tearoom service, Brooklyn-style, through three tea experiences. The Brooklyn, Vanderbilt, and Heights teas offer a range of savory bites, baked goods and yummy sweets created by house chef, Juan Carlos Jimenez. Our sitting room, outfitted with low tables, comfortable velvet chairs, and vintage décor, is an oasis of cozy and calm—the perfect respite from everything outside of the tearoom’s doors.

Bigger — and more popular — than we ever expected.

Little pencils. Little cards.
For very big thoughts.

It is sweet —
compliments, kind notes, even kids’ thoughts.

But hidden in between?
Deep takes. Sharp humor. A few quiet confessions.

And don’t assume people who take tea don’t have much to spill — they do.

🫖 Thursday Parlour Café & Games

For Today We open our doors a little differently.

The front room café is yours to slip into—
a perfect pot of tea, something warm from the oven, and a quiet moment to yourself.

Further in, the Pink Room comes to life—
board games, laughter, friends, and tea poured a little more casually.

✨ Today Walk-ins are always welcome at 🫖Our Parlour, The Speak’teasy hidden under the stoop at 69 7th avenue, Park Slope.
🎲 Reservations recommended for game tables for large parties.

And don’t worry…
our weekly Traditional tea service continues Friday through Sunday as Always.

Thursdays are simply our way of easing into the weekend—
a little softer, a little looser, just as lovely.

📌♟️📌For the past five years, our tea rooms have been built around one beautiful tradition: 🫖Afternoon tea. It remains the heart of what we do and the experience we are most proud to share. The ritual, the tiers, the teapots, and the time spent together at the table will always be the foundation of our space. Over the years, something else has become very clear to us…

Many of you simply love being IN the tea room.

Guests often tell us how much they enjoy the calm atmosphere, the comfort of the space, and the welcoming energy created by Our Team ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. The conversations, the laughter, the familiar faces — the tea room has quietly become a place where people slow down, unplug, and spend meaningful time together.

Then I started thinking about how we could open our doors just a little more during the week and give our community another way to enjoy that same atmosphere.

A few of our staff members suggested something that felt perfectly in spirit with the tea room: Tea and Games.

Not as a replacement for afternoon tea — which remains our signature service — but as a relaxed mid-week gathering where guests can share a pot of tea, enjoy a few bites from an à la carte menu, and spend time together around a board game.

So we’ve introduced PARLOUR GAMES Thursday.

It’s the same tea room, Familiar staff, and the same welcoming vibe — just another way for our community to gather, laugh, and unplug over a Pot of our Tea.

🫖 Parlour Game Thursdays..

🎲 Tea, snacks & classic and New board games ( and definitly some cool Vintage ones! )
✨ Reservations available — link to book in bio.
And Walk-ins welcome.. When’s the last time you played a game and which was it?
