Carriage House Tearoom & Café

This is definitely NOT just your grandmother’s tearoom! Sure, you’ll find tasty tea sandwiches, freshly-baked scones and teabreads served with clotted cream, a wide variety of Harney’s Tea, and that traditional, elegant service that you associate with fine dining.

 But there is so much more to The Carriage House.

In addition to our traditional Tea Luncheon and Afternoon Tea, The Carriage House offers hearty fare from the café menu, plus homemade soups, and wholesome entrée salads that fill you up while still letting you feel virtuous for eating a salad. Check out some of the new entrees this summer, like the delicious quiche or a warm and crusty Panini.

Our history…
Located on the grounds of the 1879 Emlen Physick Estate, The Carriage House is an historic building in its own right. Built in 1876, the dining tables in the Carriage House are intimately arranged in the original stalls that were home to the Estate’s carriage horses. The tack cases now display delightful gifts offered in the adjacent Carriage House Gallery Shop. The Gallery itself, home to changing exhibits, once housed the Estate’s carriages. You can also dine outside on the brick patio beneath the gaily-striped tent overlooking the Estate’s remembrance and herb gardens. Here you’ll enjoy a wonderful view of the main house and its grounds with traditional Victorian plantings and landscape design.

While you are here, make sure to visit the Physick Estate house museum, a 15-room mansion restored to its original splendor where you’ll experience how one of Cape May’s Victorian families lived.

All areas of The Carriage House are wheelchair accessible. The first floor of the Physick house is also accessible.
