    “I stumbled on this place after exploring UWS, got the tea and scone deal, and had such a great time. The tea was delicious and the scones blew me away.”

    replying to u/12345_abc_: Little Hen had great scones. Alice's Tea Cup as well. AnnTremet, I don't recall had scones, but did have a seasoned bread (a couple of flavors but the bacon tomato was my favorite) that was basically a savory scone in a different shape

    “Alice's Tea Cup has a pumpkin scone with caramel. OMG”

    replying to u/crazeman: If she likes tea, [Genesis House](https://maps.app.goo.gl/7xfY5JF1mrEfxs788) is pretty neat teahouse that sits above the Genesis car dealership/showroom. The price of the food is expensive but some of the tea is at an okay price. Drinking tea at Tea Pavilion room/Library is pretty nice. (It's also down the block from Chelsea Market) The no brainer for lunch is probably [Chelsea Market](https://maps.app.goo.gl/sZcCyTGbRCo7eJMp7). It's great to explore and they have tons of good food vendors so you're bound to find something that you like. And if you don't find anything that you like, there's also a [Market 57](https://maps.app.goo.gl/gCfpJKdvxUMyRreYA) food hall that's ran by Google 2 blocks away. (IMO I like Chelsea Market better than Market 57) My favorite spots at Chelsea Market: [Los Tacos #1](https://maps.app.goo.gl/GhsddDx3TBiLozcw6) for tacos, there's always a long line but it moves pretty quick. [Los Mariscos](https://maps.app.goo.gl/hgN8HUoKVeATj6qJ7) for ceviche and fish/seafood tacos (they're the sister restaurant to Los Tacos). [Very Fresh Noodles](https://maps.app.goo.gl/wb84LXhjitLu9nQYA) has pretty good spicy noodles. [Dickson's Farmstand Meats](https://maps.app.goo.gl/SVYAkdmvnH21UYFJA) is a butcher shop but I'm a sucker for their home made hot dog. [Fat Witch Bakery](https://maps.app.goo.gl/711Y1fZnjnRomu8X9) for a brownie. [Li-Lac](https://maps.app.goo.gl/cgF13SLqv3nhnBKb8) is NYC's oldest chocolate shop and this is one of their outposts.

    replying to u/attagirlie: Alice's tea cup is so darn cute.  Or kossar's for bagels or old John's or fiorello's.  

    “I second Alice's Tea Cup. Their eggs benedicr on their homemade scones is so good.”
