The tearoom is located on the main floor of an original 1850’s farmhouse. The menu is a blend of old English influences, Nova Scotia favorites, and Cole Harbour kitchens, all created from scratch and using the Farm garden’s own produce wherever possible. All proceeds go back into the running of the museum in which it is located. The tearoom has been designated an “Essence of Nova Scotia” member by Taste of Nova Scotia.
