Voted the best place for tea in Victoria, the White Heather Tea Room is justifiably well-loved.

The "Big Muckle Tea" is an appropriately named event - tiered trays of finger sandwiches, sweet and savoury tarts, fresh fruits, tiny cakes and cookies, and the required scones with jam and Devonshire.

The nice thing about these blends is you can resteep this tea two more times and still.
