Marcela’s Enchanted Cottage

Visiting Ridgecrest family. Came for a delicious lunch. Had new teas (Amethyst and Winter Wonderland were our favorites.) Lemon curd on scones was divine. Had to buy all three and might need to go back tomorrow before we leave town. A true treasure.

What a special place! We visited this little gem of a shop and tea room in the desert on our Californian road trip and were astonished and delighted to have a beautifully served lunch with tea done properly (we’re British and had long ago given up any hope of a proper cuppa in the US). This is a special and surprising place, a labour of love by its owner, and I recommend it highly!

Cozy, warm, comfortable space. Afternoon tea service was excellent, delicious sandwiches and desserts, nice presentation. Fantastic selection of teas. Owner and staff are very responsive and clearly work hard to ensure guests have a good experience. Highly recommended.

This is a great little place in Ridgecrest. The food is delicious (you won't be dissapointed by the caprese panini) and there is such a huge selection of tea. Hot or iced! The servers are very nice too.

A wonderful place to have a fun lunch- especially if you aren’t in a rush. They create a great experience with delicious tea and food. Hot chocolate and kid food are available- our kids loved that. And they have fun hats for dress up!

Charming and beautiful place with tea and creativity. I felt like I was with my mother and grandmother for an afternoon of tea and lively conversation.

A cute little tea house with a wide variety of delicious teas and tea-time foods. The staff is friendly and always polite. Only complaints are the prices are a little high for some of the foods and desserts you can get (especially the shop's to-go tea leaves), but the dine-in tea is well priced, and the selection is huge.

This was my first time in a Tea House. I enjoyed the whole experience. When you enter I got tea smell of exotic tea and the atmosphere was relaxing. I went through a garden that I could imagine that would beautiful when in bloom. Then you enter the Tea House again the atmosphere was beautiful. Soft music lovely table setting. Smiling face greet you and take your tea order. This was a treat from my Niece so she preordered the luncheon. On the table we noticed antique round metal tea warmers that the waitress light when she brought each of our pot of tea we order. My was their own Enchanted Blend. I have a new favorite tea. Ceylon tea and rose and chocolate. Oh it was wonderful. I had no idea that chocolate tea who knew. Yes I will tell people about my experience with Marcelasm's Enchanted Cottage. Ridgecrest CA.

I love going for lunch. Great tea selection!!!!

I love this little boutique. Besides having the most incredible, fresh teas, they also have a great tea room for a delicious lunch or party. The owner Marcella is absolutely delightful and really knows her teas. She can help you find something for your personal tastes. Lots of very nice gifts too. Seriously a great place with great people. Go; you won't regret it.
