Who’s ready for some afternoon tea? One of Charleston’s biggest hidden gems is the afternoon tea offered at Camellias, the champagne bar at Hotel Bennett.
Camellias doesn’t only offer delicious fancy cocktails; they serve afternoon tea on weekends, paired with the cutest sandwiches and cakes. Mark your calendar and invite your friends to sip some tea and nibble on different sweet and savory treats.
Afternoon tea at Camellias is by reservation only, and you can cool their phone number to book your spot (843)990-5418. Don’t forget to dress as fancy as you can; there’s a dress code. Avoid jeans at all costs!
