Huntington Library and Gardens Tea Room in San Marino

Exquisite presentation, fresh and delicious finger sandwiches and desserts, fantastic tea selection. Service was impeccable. Ask for Yasmine. She is amazing.Newly remodeled tearoom is sunny and inviting overlooking the rose and herb garden.

Excellent afternoon tea experience with wide variety of tea choices, and sumptuous savory and sweet items on the team menu.Excellent setting outdoor near rose garden or fountain, or two rooms inside. Our sever was courteous, knowledgeable, and prompt.Tips: We went with members. For non-members, first Thursday of month is public free day. Reservation is highly recommended.

Great experience with newly renovated indoor and outdoor patio seating. Great selection of tea, with seasonal selections. All the food was tasty and had a beautiful presentation.

There is a variety of things for everyone. A garden to stroll through and a small museum with paintings and sculptures. The famous Blue Boy painting is here along with an also bit less famous painting called Pinkie. Kids may get bored. The garden has a nice cactus and succulent area, and the Japanese and Chinese sections are really cool. We spent about five hours here, including lunch. Food was not too good, cafe style, and expensive. Make a day trip and enjoy Pasadena afterwards.

This place is astoundingly beautiful. There is so much to see and do here! Many visits would be required to experience everything. Their childrens garden is magical. I cant express enough how much I enjoy visiting this place!!

Beautiful and well-kept gardens!! Nice place to relax and unwind. It was a bit disappointing that several of the buildings were closed and we werent able to see the Guttenberg Bible.

No matter what seasons you visit, you will find surprises. Chinese Garden and Japanese Garden... Must visit. Dont miss the museums. If you have time and budget, enjoy the High Tea.

Beautiful gardens. The children’s garden is amazing for kids. The food in the Chinese gardens is delicious. Get there early as you could easily spend a whole day there if you wanted to see everything.

This is worth the $29/person! The grounds are massive and loads to explore and get your steps in for the day. Plenty of various gardens and indoor museums to explore. What impressed me the most were the Japanese and Chinese Gardens. Just check out the photos to see how detailed and exquisite they are. There is a Boba shop located in the Chinese Garden which is about $6.50 with tax per drink. Might be worth it for the experience. My partner and I enjoyed it loads and will definitely be back!

We were here for the entire day and only saw the Children’s garden and the Chinese guarded. Both were amazing. I found myself sitting in the Chinese garden speechless at its majesty! Seriously. Words and photos don’t even come close to conveying the reverence that the area demands. Seriously highly recommend visiting if given the chance. I look forward to some day returning and exploring the remaining areas of the Huntington area.
