Afternoon Tea at Upstairs on the Square in Cambridge, MA is sure to take away the mid- winter blues. The delightful, whimsically decorated restaurant almost makes you feel as if you are Alice in Wonderland! You can curl up by the fire, watch snowy Harvard Square from the windows of the Zebra Room or relax high in the trees of the Soiree Room as you enjoy the civilized respite of a cup of tea with artisanal sandwiches and sweet treats.

In Bliss,
