I have been going to McHugh's Tea for many years to celebrate special days like birthdays and Mother's Day. Today I had high tea reservations for my friend's birthday. The food was exceptional and our server, Nancy, provided the best service I've ever experienced. She was very friendly and knowledgeable about the various teas. Her quiet presence added to the charming atmosphere of the tea room. Having high tea at McHugh's was the highlight of the day. I can't wait for the next special occasion to return. Less

McHugh Tea Room and Gifts is a magical place where friends go to catch up, milestones are celebrated and memories are created. From service, to food, catering, private events, and the TEA, everything has been so well thought out and catered to the customer experience. New favorite local business! Less

McHugh Tea Room & Gifts is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the tea selection is incredible. What really sets this place apart is the owner, Amy—she’s incredibly hospitable and goes out of her way to make every guest feel welcome. Amy’s passion for tea truly shines as she takes the time to educate you about the different blends, their origins, and how best to enjoy them. It’s a rare and refreshing experience that keeps you coming back. Highly recommend for tea lovers or anyone looking for a cozy, enriching visit! Less

Hosted a bridal shower at McHugh’s. It was a seamless experience from start to finish. We were completely taken care of. The food was delicious and tea was perfect.We did bring some personalized decor but we didn’t need much as they took care of everything!Thank you! Less

The Grilled Pimento Cheese Sandwich and their amazing Tomato Soup is the best combination for a relaxing comfort lunch. Dont forget about their tea selection as well as their amazing pastries!!! One of the best in Bellaire!!! Less

I went here today for lunch and had a great time. My baked honey ham was delicious and enjoyed the tea. My colleagues and I enjoyed the atmosphere and customer service. I recommend going! Less

i had my birthday here. it was really nice! mikayla, our server, delivered great service. all our needs were met and she explained the menu well. we tried the chicken sandwich, BLT, and the chicken soup. the chicken salad sandwich was good, the BLT was honestly just OK, but thats fine. the tea was wonderful with a huge selection. definitely try the raspberry matcha! the ambiance here is incredible. the decorations are great. we tried the lemon poppy scone and it was amazing. the matcha brownie was also just OK. the strawberry cake slice we had was amazing, and so was the coconut cream pie! Less

Private room for a group. Everyone loved the tea, scones, sandwiches and dessert. All of the team at McHugh was easy to work with and took great care of us. Less

I recently visited McHugh Tea Room & Gifts, and while my experience wasn’t perfect, I still enjoyed my time there. The tea selection was excellent, and the tea I ordered was delicious. The food was also pretty good—everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. However, the service was a bit slower than I expected. There were only two staff members working during my visit, and one of them was busy attending to a large party. It seemed like they were a bit understaffed that day, which may have contributed to the slower pace.One thing I didn’t know beforehand was that you have to reserve their tea tray a day in advance. I had just discovered the place that day, so I didn’t have the opportunity to try it, which was a little disappointing. That said, I totally understood their policy, and it’s good to know for future visits.Despite these small hiccups, I’d definitely come back to try them again. The tea and food were good enough to make me want to give it another shot, and I’m sure the staff was doing their best under the circumstances. It might have just been an off day, and I’m curious to see how they are on a fully-staffed day! Less

wonderful scones, soup, and sandwiches AND they had the best peach iced tea I've ever had!! well worth a visit and would be a lovely place to take a friend for a special lunch Less

Had an amazing time here with my family. Got to try some of the upcoming holiday menu items and they’re all super delicious. Vanilla matcha tea was the best we tried. Nancy was super sweet and knowledgeable so happy she helped us pick that one out. Would recommend 1000%! Less

Great to order for a baby shower. The pimento cheese sandwiches were the bomb. Desserts especially the lemon squares were great. Really good spot for high tea! Less

Service was a bit slow, but warm and friendly. Three generations of us, the youngest 6 years old, and we all had a lovely time at afternoon tea. The tea, sandwiches, and baked treats were delicious. Can't wait to visit again! Less

I came to this tea room with my ten year old sister. Making reservations is a little iffy, I called the day before for a 1:30 next day reservation which was accepted! But when we got there for our reservation we were not on the list. The confirmation text they had sent me was for the same time I called the previous day which didn't make sense either. Thankfully they did have our food in the back anyways so we did get to have our tea that day. The food was all super cute! The scones were definitely our favorite thing. We got the Halloween special tea so all of the food was themed to that. The three teas we ordered were Vanilla Matcha, Strawberry Kisses and Butterfly Pea. If you have children I definitely recommend these three she loved all of them. Vanilla Matcha was her favorite. Less

This place is so cute. I was disappointed when I came for my reservation because I didn’t get to choose which food package I wanted. I was told over the phone that I would make the selection at the restaurant. My waitress said that the manager was the one who took my rez but she never asked me which food package I wanted so she put us down for the traditional tea package which I didn’t want. I wanted the Halloween seasonal package. So be sure when making your rez you tell them which food package you want. I’ll be sure to do that when I come back which I will definitely be going back! Less

Lovely tea room experience. The staff was accommodating with a slight change to add more vegetarian food to the menu when we arrived. Both mothers and daughters in our group felt comfortable to chat without feeling that we needed to rush through our afternoon tea in order to accommodate the next group. Everyone there loved their pimento cheese tea sandwiches. Less

We ordered tea and treats to go. Everything was beautiful and I would love to go in person. The only thing I didn't like was the clotted cream as it had no flavor what so ever. Less

I had the most delightful experience at McHugh Tea Room! The ambiance was charming, and every detail was thoughtfully curated. A special thank you to Nancy and Miriam, who were absolutely amazing. Their warm hospitality and impeccable service made the morning truly memorable for my birthday. The tea selection was extensive, and the treats were delicious. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a cozy and elegant tea experience! Less

I tried their lemon bar and raspberry lemon bar at the Bellaire Foodie Fest. It was delicious. The crust was flakey and the lemon tasted like real lemons. I haven't tried their other foods but I would go back for lemon bars. Less

We enjoy McHugh’s each visit. The team is gracious, the food is always flavorful and the list of teas is long enough to take care of anyone’s tea taste! Highly recommended! Less

Had a fabulous time at the McHugh Team Room for my 32nd birthday party! We rented the back room and had a high tea - the service was excellent, the food was delicious and even my friends who had never liked tea before were raving about the different flavors and options. The staff was so kind before and during the event, and I definitely would return for another party - or just a tea date. Less

Place is awesome all around.. Great food-I really enjoyed the chicken salad sandwich and their tea. Atmosphere was excellent and the service was second to none. Highly recommend! Less

Went to a networking event here and it was spectacular! The service was awesome and the food was so good! I’m not a tea guy but the waitress helped me find the perfect fit for me. I will definitely be back. Less

I went to McHugh Tea Room today, always great, always go there several times a year. The food and tea is great, wonderful atmosphere and great service. Nancy was our server, very friendly and very nice person. Less

A hidden gem in Bellaire... I've driven past this shopping center probably 100 times over the years and never knew about the tea room! Lunch with a friend was quiet and comfortable, and we could actually hear each other unlike at many other restaurant or coffee venues. The tea selection is off the charts! Less

I had such a great lunch here today! Stopped in and had a salad and iced currant tea and it was so yummy! All the dressings are made in-house apparently and the ranch was divine. Highly recommend!! Less

This tea room is exceptional! The food was prepared so wonderfully and the service was incredible. I highly recommend the tea spritzers. The grilled cheese on sour dough was heavenly along with the exceptional tomato basil soup. The scones were served warmed and were delicious! Less

Amazing!!! Highly recommend - the tea was great, the food was so good, and the staff was really nice. Quite the Sunday experience for us. We had a group or 10 and were handled so well. Less

The staff was very welcoming and attentive to our needs. The place was very clean and had tons of cute decor as well as loose leaf tea, and other accessories for purchase. Really wish I had time to book the afternoon tea experience, but I did a walk-in, and the food was amazing! Less

I used to live in Australia and drink tea all the time. I couldn't find the type of tea I used to drink in the US. So, I swapped to coffee. I love their tea a lot. Now I am back to the tea drinker. Less

Very cute place. Good tea and desserts, but the tomato soup was off. I had a grilled.cheesw sandwhich on croissant which was great. My mom had a very dry chicken salad that tasted kind of off. Service was slow, but I do like this place. We'll be back to try other items. Less

Never knew this place existed. Cute atmosphere with celebrities framed on their walls. The ambiance is super cute for get together. They have a semi private room that could fit a small party for an intimate baby shower or graduation. They have an extensive tea menu and a few food options as well. I had their Wedding Soup that had plenty of meat but little noodles. I also had their ham and cheese croissant, pretty predictable sandwich nothing special but still delicious. Wish they toasted it so the cheese was melty but a good staple to try. They cut the croutons into cute hearts. My first time trying scones as well. Delicious with cream and jam. Will definitely come back to try out more teas. Less

My favorite tea! It's reasonably priced, feels fancy/cute yet a little quirky! The staff is awesome, and they have a wonderful selection of teas. Their afternoon tea sandwiches and dessert are my favorite. This place also has take away tea packages which is cool if you're hosting a little party at home! Love! Less

What a wonderful tea time experience. The atmosphere is spot on. The food is scrumptious and delectable . The scones are heaven. Moist and soft. We had lunch of mushroom and asparagus quiche and tomato basil soup. A fruit cup was very refreshing. The teas are numerous and very aromatic...and taste Devine. I enjoyed red raspberry. We will definitely be returning. Thank you for a lovely afternoon and helping us celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary. Less

My husband and I had afternoon tea here this past Valentine’s Day and everything was great! I am gluten free and they prepared everything gluten free ahead of time for me. Everything was delicious from the sandwiches and the scones to the tea, it was wonderful!! We can’t wait to return for another afternoon tea! Less

Darling spot for tea or lunch! I came with a large group of friends to celebrate a birthday and got an impromptu lunch with my husband, and this is the perfect place for both! Also a great place to pick up wonderful tea, tea accessories or something sweet! Less

I absolutely love coming here! Everytime we sit down we are given a different tea cup. We love seeing all the variety of designs. The food here is cozy and the atmosphere is calm. We love coming here.Today we had Jay for our server and he went above and beyond. He checked on us consistently. Got us glasses of water without us asking. And bagged up our extra tea. He’s the best server. Less

McHugh Tea Room & Gifts is a great place to relax, enjoy a real conversation with others, and enjoy great service. This is my first time visiting and will definitely return for more tea! This business is under the care and ownership of a very kind, local family. I hope you will take a moment in your day to stop by and enjoy the atmosphere and kind service offered here! Hoping that in the world of technology and instant digital communication, we will still enjoy a cup of tea and a nice conversation amongst friends! Thank you for the nice experience! Less

I visited multiple tea rooms in the Houston area since fall of 2023 searching for the perfect place for my bridal tea shower. This place won me over! My mom and I went during the Christmas Holidays and within the first 10 minutes I knew this was the place for my shower. Literally put the deposit down to hold my date before leaving. I had the option to rent the entire tea room to accommodate my party. The experience was spectacular! My family, bridal party, and guests cannot stop talking about how awesome it turned out. Our dedicated servers, Jay, and Miriam were terrific. From the moment I stepped into the tea room they were expecting me and were 100% ready to go with everything. The owner, Woody, stopped by as well to check on things which is some pretty top notch customer service. Their teamwork was great and we felt as though they were part of our event! Nancy was my event planner and she was so easy to work with. She made the event planning less stressful. I am beyond grateful to have had such a wonderful bridal shower experience. Less

Delicious tea sandwiches, diverse tea options for all ages, and a serene atmosphere. Perfect for quality time with loved ones! We had four kids under 11 join us. The tea service included the most delicate cucumber sandwiches, mouthwatering lemon bars, and crumbly scones (girls said they were better than Camp Mystic). The girls loved the decaffeinated tea, and Grandma loved the Masala Chai! I packed a pimiento heart and chicken salad sandwich in the lunch boxes the next day! So cute!!!!Reserve your spot for afternoon high tea, at least the day before.Overall, I highly recommend it! It was a cozy, delightful experience. Ideal for cherished outings with loved ones! I can't wait to come back! Less

Went in on a Saturday, and didn’t know reservations were recommended. They were booked but made a table available to us. Great staff. Food was awesome! Can’t wait to go back. Less

A friend and I stopped in for some afternoon tea and lunch. Cute little spot that's located in the heart for Bellaire. Plenty of parking, and perfect outside seating. Nancy was our server and she was so patient and pleasant. I chose the BLT w/ side of fruit. The BLT was a bit hard and dry, which I expected by the appearance and the fruit had a soapy taste, I didn't like. But the vanilla matcha scones were the star of the show. I make a weekly visit for these alone. Less

This place is warm and cozy. Staff is friendly and respectful; they didn't rush us out the door. We accidentally stayed about 20min after closing. We got afternoon tea and my favorites were the scones and pimento cheese sandwiches. I highly recommend this place. For tea, the vanilla matcha and black tea rum were delicious. Less

Friendly staff, quick service, delicious food and incredible teas! This charming tea room in Bellaire has everything you expect from a tea room, but is casual and laid back. Come in flip flops or dress up like your meeting the Queen, every one is welcome! Less

Ordered three Thanksgiving pies - the chocolate pecan, buttermilk pecan and pumpkin. All three were amazing!! My family dug into the chocolate pecan and finished that one the night before. They kept saying it was the best pie they’d ever had. So good!!! Less
