A full tea is served in the Heritage Tea Room of the 1880s farmhouse and includes their own blend of London Lady Tea; a large, homemade scone with London Farm jam/jelly and butter; plus three homemade goodies. No fancy sandwiches, but the tea room tables are set with lovely tablecloths and served with bone china tea pots, cups, saucers and dessert plates. The price is a reasonable $8.50 per person (you'll pay $48.50 for The Fairmont Empress Afternoon Tea in Victoria).

Before or after tea, tour the six rooms in the restored house, complete with furniture, pictures, clothing, quilts and other everyday items that reflect life in Richmond from 1880-1930. London Heritage Farm hours are Saturday and Sunday from 12-5 (February-June) and Wednesday-Sunday from 12-5.
