Neverland Tea Salon

Neverland Tea Salon is like entering an alternate universe where pastries and teas abound and magic seeps from every well-crafted nook. Each chair, table, teacup and staff member has been selected carefully, with artistic flair at the forefront of conception. This is especially true of the Murphy bed stage, which is folded down for special events and parties hosted after closing hours.

Terri Tatchell and Renée Iaci, friends since high school, opened Neverland Tea Salon in September 2013. Creativity is in their roots, as Renée works as actress and director and Terri as an Oscar-nominated screenwriter. “I approached Neverland like a screenplay,” says Terri. “If I had a tea shop in my movie, what would it look like?” After Terri discovered her daughter was gluten and dairy intolerant, making teahouse visits impossible, Terri approached Renée with an idea and soon, Neverland was born.

Executive Chef Victoria Reichert masterfully created various pastries, sugary treats and sandwiches, including equally tasty gluten- and dairy-free options. The rest of the staff is equally creative and talented. “We hire more for personality than experience,” says Terri. While Terri was behind the vision of Neverland, Renée sourced all the teas after countless cuppings, resulting in their most famous blend, Take Me To Neverland. With several blends made specifically for their shop and more than 60 types of tea sold, customers are spoiled for choice.
