Step into 1904 and have tea on the veranda just as the Riordans did at the beginning of last century.

You can expect to enjoy Irish Soda Bread; Finger Sandwiches; Scones with Devon Cream, Lemon Curd and Strawberry Jam; Fruit, Meat, Cheese & Crackers and Lovely Desserts. If tea is not your drink of choice, you can sip Sparkling Apple Cider, Pink Lemonade or Coffee. With ample notice, we can even accommodate gluten free diets (please email [email protected]).

This upgrade includes the use of Riordan Family China dating back 120 years! To keep the sets together, all place settings at a table must use this upgrade. The VIP upgrade also includes a pass to tour Riordan Mansion State Historic Park and can be used anytime within the following year. These seats will also be placed in a preferred area of the courtyard, depending on weather September 11th. The $20 upgrade is per setting, bringing the total for the buyer to $60 per seat. To honor the comfort of our guests, tickets are being sold in groups of 2, 4 or 6 people which allows family and friends to have a table to themselves. Space is limited and reservations are required.
