Tea Cancelled
The Cathedral is currently closed, and our Tea program is on hold through the end of 2020.
All Hallows Guild has made the difficult decision to cancel all Teas this year. We will re-evaluate the conditions later this year to decide if we can safely resume serving our guests in March 2021.
We are currently not accepting Tour and Tea reservations. Please email our Tea Coordinator, Melissa Isbister, at: misbister@cathedral.org if you have questions regarding a previously placed reservations.
About Tour and Tea
For more than 25 years All Hallows Guild, in conjunction with the Cathedral’s Visitor Services Department, has served afternoon tea in Washington, DC’s highest tea room. Guests enjoy Earl Grey tea, a variety of finger sandwiches, scones, and sweets in St. Paul Room of the Cathedral’s south Tower - surrounded by some of the best views of Washington.
Tea and Tour is offered most Tuesdays and Wednesdays. The tour portion begins promptly at 1:30, and Tea follows at 2:45 pm in the Pilgrim Observation Gallery. After Tea, maximize your experience by attending Cathedral Evensong or an organ recital.
The cost is $40 per person, and reservations with payment are required in advance.
