Join us for High Tea on Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 11 2025 from 2:00 - 4:00 p.m.!

This special event is hosted by “Let’s Dish / Giddy Chick” and will be held at The Venue, in downtown Asheville.  We want to bring back the art of High Tea in Asheville!  What started as a chance meeting and a simple conversation between Chef Cheryl Brookhouzen (The Giddy Chick) and Jessica Coffield (Let’s Dish AVL) over 2 years ago has finally come to fruition. While Cheryl’s background as a Chef and Pastry Chef in New York, Chicago and at the Inn on Biltmore Estate brings the excitement of true fine dining, Jessica’s passion for event planning and vintage china has brewed into a one-of-a-kind collaboration!   

The Experience:

Experience a tablescape full of vintage fine china and charm! With numerous teas to choose from, just imagine the taste and aroma sipping from a charming porcelain teacup! Or choose to enhance your afternoon experience by adding a glass (or two) of sparkling wine—available for an additional charge at time of service.  Whatever your drink of choice, enjoy wonderful food, soft music and the exquisite ambiance of the well-appointed Second Level of The Venue. Complete with open timber framing and elegant chandeliers, this historic building can make any occasion extra special!

Celebrate Mother’s Day with a wonderful array of treats. Indulge yourself with warm freshly baked scones, clotted cream, chef-crafted preserves, finely cut tea sandwiches, savory bite-sized faire and memorable delicate cakes and desserts. In addition, we are delighted to provide vegetarian and gluten-free menus upon request prior to the event.  If you or any guest in your party has dietary needs, please inform us when securing your reservation and we will strive to ensure our menu options suit you.
