Tea with HatTeas at the Marvin House
The Elizabeth Warner Marvin House invites the community to a special luncheon event, Tea with HatTeas, on Thursday, February 23, featuring guest speaker Harriet Sessler, owner of Hat TeasTea House & Café.
This unique event is part of the Marvin House’s Diamond Jubilee celebration, marking 75 years as a women’s organization dedicated to preserving local history and fostering community engagement in Chautauqua County.
Guests will enjoy an elegant afternoon inside the historic Marvin House, often described as a “treasure trove” and “magnificent eye candy,” known for its beautiful displays of teacups and teapots. The home will be styled in a traditional tea party setting for the occasion.
The luncheon menu will feature classic English scones with currants served with Devonshire cream and raspberry jam, entree is a savory spinach and feta crepe paired with a fresh citrus salad of leafy greens, mandarin oranges, and glazed almonds with citrus vinaigrette. Dessert will include bread pudding with bourbon sauce, along with coffee and tea.
Following the luncheon, Sessler will present a program exploring the history of tea, its cultural significance, and the distinctions between afternoon tea and high tea, including traditions rooted in British aristocracy.
“The Marvin House has served the region for 75 years, and this event is a wonderful way to celebrate that legacy while bringing the community together,” organizers shared. “We invite guests to experience the charm of the house and enjoy an afternoon of history, hospitality, and connection.”
