White Oak Tea Room – Botetourt County

July 18, 2006 · Filed Under Restaurant Reviews 

Back on July 12 Allison and I visited the White Oak Tea Tavern on the right side of north Route 11 in the Amsterdam community (between Daleville and Fincastle) in Botetourt County. What a delight it is!

The respectfully restored log cabin is the perfect spot for a cup of iced tea during this heat wave and the hot tea was perfect too (try the strawberry!). Bagels baked fresh after you order them is a unique offering not to be found in the Roanoke Valley. (They also have scones, yum!) It is tastefully decorated and with the beautiful wood floors and electic collection of tables and furniture, a perfect place to meet for tea time.

I had the artichoke heart and spinach bagle with strawberry tea. I also tried the cinnamon scone, it was all very good. They have many different bagle varieties and spreads to choose from with a large selection of teas as well. Allison particularly liked the tea warmer they bring to your table to keep your tea piping hot, just the way she likes it.

I believe the atmosphere and light fare make the perfect place for a business meeting, so future real estate clients can expect to go there!
