HOLIDAY NOTE: Reservations for SIP’s Annual Holiday Tea Service are required for ALL seatings between November 25th – December 23rd, 2023.

Big on charm, flavorful food and friendly faces.

Situated directly across from San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park in the Inner Sunset District, you will find our cozy tea room offering a modern take on traditional English Afternoon Tea. Join us for a pot of piping hot tea and treat yourself to a small feast, presented on a three tier tower brimming with traditional sandwiches, delectable fancies and warm scones.

We provide SIP’s Full Traditional Afternoon Tea Experience and Lighter Fare Menu options. We make your food fresh in the SIP kitchen, so prepaid reservations are required to partake in the Full Traditional Afternoon Tea Experience, Thursday through Sunday. Reservations for the Lighter Fare Menu are not required, so swing by when you’re in need of a tea fix. If you prefer a lighter meal and want to guarantee a table for you and your pals, reservations for the Lighter Fare Menu are available on Thursday and Friday. The kitchen is open from 10:00pm-2:30pm.

What makes Sip Tea Room extra special?

Fresh, local ingredients are always used to create your perfect seasonal meal. Sandwiches, scones and dessert selections change regularly. These variations allow you to celebrate different flavors and seasonal ingredients throughout the year. Menus will include staple items that are guest favorites, paired with delicious new flavors to try. Our goal is to make each visit a unique experience.

Golden Gate Park is only a few steps away, an easy walk to explore the year-round natural resources, events and cultural history the park has to offer. Additionally, Sip Tea Room offers live music, holiday celebrations, community events, private parties and so much more.  

Tips for your visit.

Note any allergies when booking your Tea Experience. Please include all guests on your reservation; we do not “add” guests/chairs to your table on the day – this includes children. Guests are welcome to hold babies, under the age of two. Thank you for understanding. Learn more tips on our FAQ page.
