Perfectly Posh is the reservation-only tearoom of Posh Teatime Co., a Columbus company that also caters mobile tea parties. The menu is a ladder of set services, from a $35-$40 cream tea with two scones and clotted cream up to a four-course Traditional English Afternoon Tea at $89-$98 that opens with soup or salad. It also serves a $69 Moroccan Atay service of poured mint tea and a $79 Mississippi Southern Tea with a chicken-and-waffle sandwich.
Cambridge Tea House serves breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea on West Fifth Avenue. The building sits in the village of Marble Cliff next to Grandview Heights, but the tea house uses a Columbus mailing address. It opens Wednesday through Sunday until 3 p.m., posts seasonal tea menus, and books out its rooms for showers and private dinners.
Mozart's is an Austrian-style bakery, cafe and event space that has operated in Columbus for more than 30 years. Its afternoon tea runs Thursday and Friday between 1 and 3 p.m., by phone reservation only, with a separate afternoon tea for kids. Groups of nine or more pay group pricing.
Matcha Me is a matcha-focused cafe on North High Street that whisks Japanese ceremonial-grade matcha to order. The menu pairs straight matcha with seasonal flavored lattes. It opens daily from 8 or 9 a.m. and stays open until 7 p.m. on Friday and Saturday.
Enchantea is a matcha and tea bar on Bethel Road that reopened on Sept. 25, 2026 after a three-month remodel. Its matcha comes from a tea farm the owners run in Yunnan, China, and the new menu adds tea desserts such as hojicha financiers and matcha layer cakes. After 5 p.m. the room switches to Tea After Dark, a cocktail program built on brewed tea.
ZenCha Cafe & Tea is a full-service restaurant and tea salon on East Main Street in Bexley, an independent city surrounded by Columbus that shares its mailing address. The tea list spans Chinese, British and Indian teas alongside bubble and fruit teas, and the kitchen serves salads, sandwiches and entrees. It sells 100-gram bags of select teas, teapots and cups in the shop.

Columbus Tea Tips
Book Perfectly Posh online
Every service at Perfectly Posh is reservation-based. Book through OpenTable or by phone, plan on 90 minutes for the full afternoon tea and 60 for the cream or light tea, and leave children under 5 at home.
Call Mozart's for tea
Mozart's afternoon tea is not on its online ordering system. Call to reserve a Thursday or Friday slot between 1 and 3 p.m.; Saturday is by inquiry only.
Go early at Cambridge Tea House
Cambridge Tea House closes at 3 p.m. and its kitchen stops at 2 p.m. on weekends, and it is closed Monday and Tuesday. Plan a late breakfast or lunch rather than an evening visit.
Use Enchantea for a late cup
Enchantea is the late option: its reopening hours run to 10 p.m. Sunday to Thursday and 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, with tea cocktails after 5 p.m.
