While on vacation a few weeks ago, my wife and I decided to do a day trip to Freeport, Maine. As I was perusing a location map outside of L.L. Bean, I noticed this tea shop. After we finished shopping, we stopped in and were pleasantly surprised at the decor and offerings. Jacqueline’s offers Afternoon Tea, by reservation only, and Cream Tea, which is offered if you walk in. Because we were walk ins, we had the Cream Tea option. Two pots of tea, both of our choosing, from a broad spectrum of teas and two homemade Scones, accompanied by Jam, Devonshire Cream and Lemon Curd. Jacqueline, the owner, is extremely knowledgeable in the various teas she offers and she makes the best Scones I’ve ever eaten. Don’t know if we’ll ever make it back to Freeport, but if we do, this is definitely going to be on the itinerary.
