CLEVELAND, Ohio -- In the simplest sense, a tea room is just what it sounds like, a small, intimate space where family and friends can gather together for a light lunch, or pastry, and a cup of tea while catching up.

Afternoon tea is an English tradition, which originated in the 1800s, in Great Britain by its aristocracy.

Here in Northeast Ohio, tea rooms are devoted to celebrations such as bridal or baby showers, birthday parties or mother-daughter outings, though they are still devoted to treating you like a queen.

So if you feel you should be treated like royalty -- and we believe you do -- the easiest way to get the royal treatment is to visit one of these charming shops, deemed by Yelp Cleveland users, as a great place to kick back and enjoy some delicious food, perfectly brewed unique teas and some good old-fashioned fun.

Sample review: Such a nice little place in an unassuming shopping center. It was really easy to find. My family surprised my sister and me for Mothers Day. We were greeted and taken to our table right away. There were chocolate-dipped strawberries on the table along with absolutely beautiful tableware and tea strainers. They have a counter with teacups all ready to go for guest table changes. They had a lot of beautiful sets...They had a variety of finger foods...I would recommend doing this at least once in your lifetime. This is the third time Ive attended a tea party. Always a good time. They had a dress-up corner with various hats and a few purses along with a long mirror. Such a great idea. Until next time - Lynette C.

8092 Columbia Rd., Olmsted Falls, 440-235-1223

County: Cuyahoga

Yelp rating: 4 stars

Sample review: Clementines is a charming tea room that features a variety of coffees and teas. One of the few Cleveland restaurants that knows how to make and serve tea. Individual pots with tea leaves and a little strainer and a teacup and saucer, instead of the usual metal pot of water and a tea bag. (Makes a difference, folks!) The food is lovely, featuring a variety of homemade soups, sandwiches and salads - all made fresh daily. Thank goodness, someone knows how to serve hot foods hot and cold foods cold. The soups are phenomenal and the sandwiches and salads are great and sizable so men do not need to feel they will be getting dainty portions. Having mentioned the portion sizes, be warned: The desserts are killer and you may have to share. - Charlotte F.
