If you're ever in the mood for some good quality hot tea or just want to add a little culture to your life, swing by Central Perc in Oakwood.
I've been twice. Once on a Saturday morning to meet a friend for tea and a scone and once with family for the "traditional" tea. The owners are from England and very friendly to customers. In fact they seemed to have quite a few regulars come in while I was there. Some tea shops aren't the most welcoming to children but I saw cusotmers of all age welcomed in the shop. The decor is laid back and warm with plenty of tables and chairs inside and outside.
I took some out of town family to the traditional tea and they loved the experience. The traditional tea consisted of a three tiered plate filled with tea sandwiches, deserts, scones and a pot of our choice of freshly brewed tea. The servings were very generous. In fact we took leftovers home in a to-go-box.
I have a friend (who is somewhat of a food snob :-) that stops by often for lunch and tea and absolutely loves the place.
If you're looking for a fun place to meet up with family of friends on a Saturday morning of early afternoon or just to expose yourself to something new, check Central Perc out.
