If I could give this place a million stars I would. The gentleman serving us high tea was so sweet. I just wanted to hug him and buy everything 🤣 my mom and I had tea and it was so fun. We dressed up and everything! One of the best memories Ive made with her. 🥰 thank you for making my rare days with my mom so special! I will never forget it. I highly recommend this place and I will be coming back with all my friends and family.

Best British themed store in Colorado Springs! Love all the gifts from the UK. Tons of English food in the grocery store as well! Can’t wait to come for the tea room for a much needed girls day!

Amazing and authentic tea room, British pantry and souvenir store! The tea was delicious, the food was authentic and amazing, with great service. There was a harp player half the time! There were a selection of fun hats to choose from. Nice owners.

I took my Mum out for high tea today, this was our first time going to The British Pantry. Maria and Rick are absolutely wonderful, the tea and AMAZING food brought us right back to 1993 when we lived in England. To find somewhere with FRESH scones and CLOTTED CREAM…. I was in heaven the sausage rolls were so yummy I bought 8 to take home and enjoy later!! I will definitely be bringing my friends and husband here to enjoy this experience over and over!! Thank you two for keeping the traditional food and not Americanizing it! So Lovely!!!!

This was a wonderful experience. My family and I were not aware we needed a reservation but we were made an exception. We were seated and still served scones and tea. It was so lovely the service is exceptional!!!

Absolutely wonderful experience! A small group of us went today for high tea and we were not disappointed! The service was spectacular and not once did we ever have to pour our own tea and we were given wonderfully educational history explanations for some things. Every single one of us left full and satisfied! It was wonderful that there was also a live harp player when we were present. The tea was delicious and there was even an option for decaf as one of my friends has a heart condition and cannot have the caffeine. I have been to the store at the front separately from this visit and was pleased to see a bunch of things that I havent seen since I was last in the UK! The owners as well as those who work there are super pleasant and I cannot wait to make another trip there!

I absolutely loved the high tea experience here. The food was very good and had lovely seasonal flavors. It was incredibly authentic and I am definitely going to be coming back!

The tea is okay. Fresh food and affordable for a tea but more casual than expected. Would’ve liked more options, it was mostly scones and sandwiches. I like sweets

Lovely shop! Very inviting from the outside. The woman behind the counter was very friendly and sweet. *Great* selection of British food! It was easy to totally fill my basket with classics. The other goods (football scarves, tea sets, etc) were pretty extensive as well. Lots of cute British trinkets too (e.g. Mr. Bean bobble head). I look forward to visiting again!

Had a lovely high tea experience!!This place is quaint and professional. They were VERY accommodating!! The food was delicious. I highly recommend.

As a huge Harry Potter fan & all around Anglophile, I absolutely LOVE this shop! The lady who runs the shop is SO nice & pleasant. All kinds of British goodies, food, & souvenirs. Just love it.

First time in and was amazed as to how authentic high tea was! The staff were extremely friendly and the service was above and beyond! Everything was amazing to include the sandwiches. The deserts were great and the clotted cream is made in house and was absolutely delicious! The harp player was fantastic and the vibe was perfect! I most certainly will be back for more! I highly recommend any and everyone to stop by. Thanks for such a great time! I

We had a very nice time here for high tea. Everything was perfect... fun, friendly, delicious. When you go, be sure to grab a hat from their collection to complete the experience and enhance your photos. Lots of fun and super-friendly hosts.

Knowledgable and friendly staff.They had Jack Sparrow for territory days, he was fun.Tea time is phenomenal. Very very pricey though.

Fun products, delightful tea and very friendly! Cant wait to go back!

A very cute shop with imported goods from the UK.Looking for tea? Clotted cream? Scones? Jaffa cakes? or any stuff to show some British pride?You found the right shop!The place is well stocked and quite cute.They have a tea room that is run Friday-Sunday and YOU NEED A RESERVATION. Be sure to call one in.

Recently ordered gifts here for pickup during the holidays, and the staff was so helpful and kind. Happy to support such a cool, unique store! I always find great things here.Looking forward to eating in the tea room once it opens again. I hope this place stays open for a long time ❤

We had a wonderful experience! Our granddaughter really enjoyed herself, all and all, a great experience with both great tea and food!

Great little shop. Staff really helpful.

What a pure joy to have high tea in this charming tea room. Excellent atmosphere, beautiful music and really delicious food!...please try it.

Harp player was great and they have amazing gluten free food and dessert!!

What a delightful experience. Their Christmas Tea was delicious and they have such a friendly staff.

I had never been to tea before today and The British Pantry made this first experience unforgettable! The shop is gorgeous, full of many collectibles and trinkets ! Maria was very informative and extremely friendly. I felt a little embarrassed at first because I didn’t know anything about tea or how one conducts themselves at such an occasion but Rick threw that embarrassment right out the window! He was SOO friendly and taught me all about the kind of tea and food we were enjoying, how to hold a cup and saucer, some British history, and why the pinky is held out. The food is freshly prepared and smelled delicious as soon as you walk in! The food and tea were Sooo tasty! I can’t wait to come back for more. We were also serenaded by a harpist who played beautifully! This is a place that can be enjoyed be anyone of all ages ! They even have fancy hats that can be worn during tea time ! I will most definitely be back for tea soon!

They have really good teas for purchase here. I also love the Harry Potter & Mr. Bean merchandise. They sell great tea sets for little girls.

Try the black current jam, great on a peanut butter sandwich.

Incredibly rude owner. Very uncomfortable experience. I was yelled at by the owner, infront of my mother, daughter and the other guests because only part of my group showed up to the reservation. I was then charged $24.99 for each person who did not attend AND 18% gratuity which he did not deserve because he was so rude. I was not notified before hand of this. He proceded to insult me AGAIN infront of the entire dining room after the meal when he gave me the check! Terrible experience. I do not recommend, i will not return, $320 for finger sandwiches is WAY overpriced, especially when our experience was so awful.

I came here for first time today simply to stock up on some heinz beans, mushy peas, and flake bars.The place was very busy while we were in there, but I was also looking for some Lyles golden syrup, the owner quickly helped me locate this item, This is why I love and support local businesses.You have a new customer in my Family for sure.

Reasonable price for high tea, but lacks atmosphere. I

The owners are so very sweet. We loved the hospitality and environment. We will definitely be back!My daughter and I went to high tea and our experience was absolutely amazing. The owner and his wife were very sweet. The price was also great. I like that for kids they have a “share” option so I don’t have to purchase a whole high tea for my daughter who eats like a bird. The food was so good as well. It’s also fun to look around and check out the food and miscellaneous items they have.My daughter also had a tea set that was broken after talking with them they said if I brought it in they would see if they can fix it. We brought it back and they did an amazing job fixing it. I love supporting small businesses and this is definitely one we will continue to support. Did I mention on some Saturdays they have a live harp player!!

Great customer service and interaction from the staff.

Really fun and cute place to have an authentic British high tea! Love that they have a share option for the little kids to enjoy! The owners are very friendly and sweet. We had a great time and we will be back. Thanks for the fun expierence!

So many wonderful goodies here including tea, crumpets, scones, and other noms from across the pond.

Great selection of British sweets, groceries, frozen foods and gifts. Neat, clean and fresh products. Helpful and friendly staff. We will be back.

As a Brit, I am continuously on a mission to find British Products. Unfortunately I find that providers tend to sell products that are out of date and spoiled. It’s very disappointing because I want Americans to taste the best of British but they inevitably take home something lesser. Here we have the same problem. Out of date or close to sell by items that no one should have to experience. Chocolate that has a white film or stale potato chips. Why would you disrespect the culture you’re trying to profit off is beyond my comprehension. I would always suggest reading every expiration date and if there is non shown, don’t buy.Responding to owners reply:I have in fact spoken to one of your cashiers regarding out of date products and was informed the owner doesn’t appreciate criticism (your response well noted) she mentioned a Taser...You say you ‘constantly monitor’ yet on my last visit there were at least 5 different brands of chocolate bars that had a month till expiration along with 2 brands of crisps, and the pack of Viscount biscuits I bought, that didn’t have a date, were covered in a white film.I live far enough to not find it convenient to return products that should have never been on a shelf.We hear a lot about supporting our local businesses in this pandemic, yet little thought is given to the customer. Your customers are struggling too. When we who don’t have a lot of money, buy items that are expensive we do so as a treat. We should expect a fair trader. How fair is it that my purchases are trash? Your Tea Shop might be a lovely experience for little girls but your products purchased by hard working adults need more ‘monitoring’.

Adorable tea shop! Love going there to stock up on all things european, the best!

Everything was excellent. The tea service & the sandwiches & the scones & the sweets...we highly enjoyed it.

I only wish I lived closer so I could go more often. High tea was excellent! Update: We got to-go high tea because of the pandemic. To-go high tea was excellent! We have toddlers, so to-go high tea was so much fun at home. The kids loved it and the adults loved it! We cant wait to do it again! Thank you so much!

Ive never been in for tea, but every time Im downtown I have to stop by. I love this unique little shop and all of its wonderful things.

This was such an adorable and fun experience!!! It was so quaint and darling. Staff was so awesome. Will be coming back again!!

Three stars because we had a good time together as a family.30.00 per person for food that tasted like it was made the night before our one o’clock reservation. Very scant amount of chicken salad on rectangular cut bread. Very dry and lack of any flavor. The tea was good.I chose this restaurant for a special high tea for six. I would not spend one hundred sixty nine dollars for the inadequate amount of food again. The Erie Castle was fully booked or we would have had a better bang for our bucks.I recommend not.

Fun little shop!

Great spot for your British food cravings and the owners are so nice!

Pleasant experience.

I usually go her every year for my birthday with my daughter(s) and i really enjoy it

I was lucky to win the raffle at the recent American/British meeting. To my delight I received a wonderful hamper of British foods and drinks from the British Pantry and Tea Room. We (myself, husband and friends) have so enjoyed sampling all the delicious chocolates, biscuits, crumpets, clotted cream, jams, toffees, teas and other drinks. Included was a very nice basket, T towel and flags. Thank you for the nice gift!

Ok expensive

A friend and I had an excellent tea yesterday. Everything was delicious, extremely fresh and made on the premises from scratch, including the puff pastry on the sausage rolls. The price is very reasonable for the quality and the size of the portions. The owners couldnt be friendlier or more attentive.

Never experienced a British Tea? This is the place to go (reservations needed). Little sandwiches, scones with real cream and jam, sausage rolls, cake and tea that us spot on! Great selection of British biscuits and other food stuff and gifts. Reasonably priced

We came here for High Tea and could not have been more delighted! The atmosphere was adorable, the food was delicious and they let you wear fancy hats (!)The man who served us was so sweet and knowledgeable and attentive. Exceeded expectations, highly recommend especially if you want to have a tea party with your friends or kids!

A lovely place, with lovely people running it. Memory lane...

Great selection of British/Irish treats!Friendly service!

Great British options available, lots to choose from. A couple friends and I had tea and was lovely. Really enjoyed that it was very traditional and homemade. Many places in town dont do traditional. Definitely comes down to the lovely Maria. Thanks!

This place is fun. I took my mom and daughter here for high tea before we saw Murder on the Orient Express. They have hats you can wear if you want, which is fun for a photo-op. The tea itself was tasty and the accompanying snacks were as yummy as they were pretty to look at, which was very. The grocery its fun to look through too, although most of the imported food is kinda pricey. But if youre looking for a specific English biscuit or tea this is a good place to look.

Best scones in the whole of Colorado! The fluffiness was amazingly perfect! I am an English scones and tea nerd having spent a good part of my life living in Europe, Id seek out English scones and tea everywhere Ive lived in the USA. Weve tasted almost every English tea place out here in Colorado, Id count The British Pantry and Tea Room as one of the most authentic experiences we had. The place may not be as fanciful as some of the luxurious castle experiences around here but the tea they served is equally if not more magical, and all at a reasonable price too.

Amazing and so friendly

I took my mom, two granddaughters and a very good friend to high tea yesterday. My friend had never been to tea before so it was a very special experience for her. We all had an amazing experience. The food was outstanding and the tea was delightful. The staff helped make this very special. We are planning a return trip in a month or two. Make plans to do tea here, you will not be disappointed and thats a promise.

Amazing, buttery scones and the staff is so sweet and fun

Very nice place. Tea and food were delicious but a tad costly. The staff were very friendly and the environment was lovely! We will be back in the future!

Everything you want and need!

I visit the tea shop nearly every weekend and have been coming on and off for nearly 3 years now. I love the atmosphere, its so cozy and sweet, great for all ages and parties big and small. The couple who run the shop are always so kind and welcoming, going out of their way to remember their customers and make them feel comfortable. Ive taken several guests with me over the years to the shop, both men and women, ones who enjoy tea and those who hate it, and every person Ive taken has walked away having had a wonderful time and asking me to take them back in the future. Ive never experienced a more interesting, fun, and enjoyable weekly habit in my life, and plan to continue returning as long as Im able. The tea shop is open Friday through Sunday, but has a shop in the front that is open all week long. I often purchase some of the goodies they serve in the tea shop for my siblings who live far away and send them these treats, which they are always ecstatic to get. The tea shop has a lovely feeling to it, from the cozy beautifully set tables to the hats which are essential for every tea experience. I recommend this experience to anyone with an hour to spend with a friend and looking for an interesting time to remember. If you are looking for an authentic experience with delicious food and great people, please visit sometime.

This place exceeded all my expectations. I took all my nieces and they all loved it. They were very hospitable and so kind. Everything from the tea to the scones were delicious. Well definitely be back soon!

Great girlfriends place. Make reservations. Lunch is sandwiches, scones, sausage rolls, two bites of dessert. We couldnt eat it all. Excellent PG tips tea. A great treat.

Amazing place for a tea party

One of my favorite places! Not only is the store delightful to look at and explore, the high tea is fantastic. They really try hard to make it special every time. They have fancy hats for you to choose and wear for tea and its always delicious. They are very attentive to your every need. They have a frozen section as well so you can bring home your favorites to enjoy later.

Absolutely lovely! Amazing high tea and we got lucky to have a harpist play for us. Tea was great, scnoes and finger sandwiches were quite tasty. Hosts were delightful. We will be back.

So glad to find another import place (with amazing owners) since the one out by us closed. The store is clean and well stocked.

Absolutely loved it here. The owners are warm and friendly and they have a variety of British goodies/gifts to choose from. The tea is delicious and their finger foods are divine. If you want to experience what its like to have proper tea then definitely make a reservation at the British Pantry!

We love this place! We go to high tea usually once a month because the menu changes slightly. The owners are so friendly and nice. Its a very cool experience. We try to take out of towners to give them a fun environment as well. You should definitely go!

Such a cute shop and tea room! We had high tea, and bought some British goods and sweets to eat later. Everything was delicious, but I did think it was pricey. Will definitely come back.

Got some British candy bars and enjoy the British atmosphere

Such an amazing place to visit, really enjoyed the afternoon tea and finger sandwiches. I would recommend this place to anyone who is wanting a little get away with friends and family.

I cannot speak for the food. But my shopping experience was not pleasant. The prices are very high compared to ordering from the UK straight off, but honestly I can deal with that, Id like to support a face to face store, but being insulted to my face while purchasing said expensive items is never a fun experience. Wont be back simply because of that. Bummer too, was a cute shoppe. Maybe I caught her on a right bad day. Who knows. Just my experience.

Every time I visit my daughter its literally the first place we go. Christmas High Tea was beautiful and the food nothing less than scrumptious. Thank you for always being so kind and always remembering us.

Great little shop with some of the very best imported foods from the UK. The tea room is lovely, complete with hats to wear while having tea. Definitely a nice place to visit and shop at while in Old Colorado City!

If you like TRUE British tea and food, this is where to go. I prefer tea here to Glen Eyrie. The food is so delicious that we ordered a second round of some items!! Maria is so sweet and kind! And the items for sale in the shop are authentic!!! I am a regular and tell others to come here.

One of my favorite places in town. Great prices to get some of your favorite snacks from overseas and the nicest people working the counter. Definitely make sure you stop by!

Super place to visit, with a definite British ambiance. Owners are helpful, friendly and have an assortment of gorgeous little dogs!Being from Britain its home away from home. However, any nationality would enjoy a visit! Try out their tea room!Glenda Lee VollmeckeAuthor: INTERMISSION-A PLACE IN TIME.

It is the best place to go and get high tea every time I go i have the best time. I have taken many of my friends there and the just love ❤️ the food and the service. I will never go anywhere else for high tea.

High tea was peaceful and delicious. The sausage rolls are to die for and we bought too many items from the grocery section because we couldnt narrow down our choices.

They served a nice tea... they do not have a tea geared to kids.. we were a group of 3 adults and 5 kids and were paying separately... they added a 20% gratuity... OUCH.. I didnt feel the service was worth 20%

Fun and quaint store and it has a tea room in the back of the room with sandwiches, desert and the best British tea. Lots of items from the UK. well be back. Loved it.

Lovely shop with an excellent and competitively priced selection of products from the UK run by friendly, welcoming people. I go in for the chocolate, digestives and crisps mostly. The tea room looks great. Highly recommend!

Love this place. Have all the great British and Irish teas and awesome tea time and a bunch of cool trinkets as well.

The food and tea where spectacular. The atmosphere was wonderful. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to experience a traditional English high tea. I will be coming back again and again.

We saw this place is a magazine yesterday and decided to try it out. It was amazing! The treats were very well prepared and the people there are very hospitable. They were very knowledgable about the traditional breakfast, and also sell a lot of foods. Its a small little quiet place, so you wouldnt know its there. Just look for the British flag across from the park in Old Colorado.

I have been to the British Pantry several times, and just love the it. I have bought my family from Australia, we had a fun time and a lot of reminiscing.

We have made a Christmas tradition of having high tea at the British Pantry and we love it! They provide a lovely selection of finger sandwiches, scones and desserts.

A truly British tea experience. The owners are incredibly friendly and the food is delicious! A fun afternoon get-a-way, although they only serve tea Friday-Sunday.

Great experience for a tea time.I would not go expecting to fill up because it is tea not dinner.The staff were gracious, reservations required,the owner calls a few minutes ahead because everything is prepared fresh.It is a cozy place with some victorian touches,a parlor behind the store.Parking was a little trouble.

Amazing place with amazing tea. But dont drink too much, it may appease you too much. They also have some British goods like Lilt, Jammy Dodgers, Jelly Babies, some Doctor Who stuff, and more British stuff! They also have some Scottish stuff!

We love this place! The scones and sausage rolls are so delicious, and the folks are super sweet.

A wonderful selection of Britis teas, mince pies, biscuits and gifts. We love to buy our advent calendars here.

Always nice and pleasant, actually being British helps. Allows for Reminiscing, and nice conversation all while buying great British products.

High Tea is so fun! Great spot for tea and not too pricey. Cute store and very authentic.

Owner is so nice. Tea is wonderful and so is the atmosphere.

This is a wonderfully unique experience. The food and tea were stunning, and they did a great job accommodating my book clubs event.

Cant wait to go there and have tea.

Lovely little place. Great tea.

What a wonderful place to be! Food id great. Especially the Sausage rolls, very friendly atmosphere!

Love, love, love this little British shop and tea room. Owners are lovely and friendly, food is outstanding. Reminds me of being at home in England x
