Spring 2026 Season | March 6 – May 17
There are few pleasures as timeless as Afternoon Tea.
This spring, we invite you to experience a refined and intimate Afternoon Tea at the historic Captain Farris House, circa 1845 – where tradition, elegance, and warm hospitality meet in the heart of Cape Cod.
Thoughtfully curated and beautifully presented, our seasonal tea service is designed for those who appreciate quiet luxury: meaningful conversation, delicate flavors, and the simple joy of slowing down.
Whether celebrating love, friendship, or simply the pleasure of being together, this is a gentle escape — one that feels special from the moment you arrive.

Fridays – Sundays | 11:00 a.m. & 2:00 p.m.
Seating is limited, and reservations are required.

The Experience
