In the new "millennial" order of things, if you want a cup of tea or coffee you still get it, but it's served in a to-go cup. It's also usually topped with some pretty fancy whipped delight - or spiked with extra caffeine.

Fortunately, for those of us who prefer a more traditional kind of tea, there are some bonafide "tea rooms" in South Carolina where a group of friends can have tea - complete with crumpets and more. Here's a list:

1. Laura's Tea Room - 105 N Palmer St, Ridgeway, SC 29130

Laura's serves High Tea from Tuesday through Saturday from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Need a fancy tea hat? No worries. There's an historic mercantile (and a cafe) on the first floor and they sell hats that are perfect for High Tea.
