Johnson House Bakery & Tea Room

Since a recent trip to the UK I have been obsessed with cream tea (tea, scone, clotted cream, jam). So you can imagine my surprise and delight to find in Davie county a legit tea house that has for a mere $5 a cream tea service. (Plus other more elaborate teas.) They also have a selection of baked and other good and goodies for carry out. We took home 3 blueberry scones and Devonshire cream, and had tea service in house with delicious lemon scones and apricot preserves. And of course a selection of teas to choose from. Note that we live in Mocksville but it took us a long to drive here from Hanes Park in Winston-Salem (17 minutes) as from here to our house. Can't wait to get back here.

Really we need to support well done businesses like this more. I didn't expect much but this pleasantly surprised both of us. My daughter and I have actually worked at and run a tea room in Ohio years ago so we are pretty picky. The price is really reasonable and the foot was hot/cold appropriate and well done. The tea was brewed well and the building was immaculately clean. All of the staff was pleasant without being overbearing. The bakery was lovely although I didn't peek in the gift shop so can't comment on that. Next time we would probably try tea or brunch as we did the lunch menu and just had sandwiches. I highly recommend anyone in the area give this a try or use for an event. I'll post pics in a while.

I went here recently with my book club and had an immaculate experience. It was a beautiful home and had the exact vibes you were hoping for. The dishes were so pretty as was the general decor. The staff was incredibly kind and welcoming. And the food and tea were amazing. I cannot wait to go back again.

We were expecting more for the money, $22pp (times 3). The tea items on the tray were sparse and not very flavorful as opposed to the Bakery items on display. The chicken salad tea sandwiches appeared to have store bought rolls instead of their yeast rolls they sell at the bakery. No lemon curd or raspberry jam for the bland vanilla scones. A good variety of tea choices. The house is like a museum and lovely to walk around in.

I reserved a table to enjoy high tea a few days before Christmas. Plenty of free parking and easy access to the entrance. Festive decorations adorned the historic house and beautiful instrumental seasonal music played softly. At the table, I was provided a list of teas to choose from and a menu of what would be served for the high tea. Staff was cheerful, pleasant and knowledgeable of the flavors offered. Everything from the scones to the sandwiches to the desserts were handmade with the freshest ingredients. I was impressed with the flavor of the plum-apricot jam. The white chocolate, citrus and pistachio bark was my favorite of the dessert offerings. As I had chosen to dine alone, I enjoyed the warm holiday ambiance, the low chatter from neighboring table guests and soft music as I read selections of Christmas poetry on my phone. It was a delightful way to mark my 55th birthday.
