The Whistling Kettle

Love this place! Beautiful atmosphere (indoor dining, outdoor dining in season), delicious food- amazing crepes and desserts. I love the afternoon tea lunch aspect. Beautiful presentation! Staff is friendly and attentive! And if you are inspired to buy a Tshirt they are the softest most comfortable shirt you will ever wear! Again, I love this place!

I cannot say enough good things about this place! The staff was super friendly, especially our server, Leslie. We had a wine slushy followed by two wine flights, yes two, for the two of us. Be warned that you get more than one cup per pot! Definitely try the ginger blueberry if you like ginger, that was my favorite! The scone I ordered was scrumptious as well, served with cream and preserves.

Wow what a gem to find in Ballston Spa! The Whistling Kettle food was fresh and delicious! I enjoyed lunch here. My waitress was very attentive and friendly. My sandwich was filling and the cake was amazing. What I loved most about this restaurant was their outdoor dining area…and the food of course.

Really nice setting with old brick walls...cozy booths...very warm and inviting. Amazing variety of teas ( and coffees) including draft ice tea, hot tea, tea lattes, tea specials and custom brews. Soups were delicious as were the savory crepes. Salads crisp and tasty. Good place to visit with friends. Also enormous selection of teas and tea accaccessories for sale...many options!

The Whistling Kettle was recommended by a coworker, and for good reason. The food is delicious, and most items on the menu can be gluten free (crepes, sandwiches, etc.) My earl gray tea was good, and I'm told the matcha was done right. My sandwich and carrot cake were delicious.

I had the ham and Brie panini with the lobster bisque. My better half had the ratatouille panini with the chicken and beans soup. Both meals were delicious. Next came the scone with cream and mixed berries very nice, along with fresh pressed decaf coffee. Sorry scone went fast and I failed to photograph it. Great meal and service.

All I can say is WOW. I was not expecting what we got. The teas were fantastic 😍. Full of flavor and aroma. A quaint and quiet setting. The food was fabulous. We walked out with the memory of a great dining experience. We had gone just for tea but after looking over the menu it sounded too good to pass up and it was. The food was fresh and the flavor combinations were superb. We will stop again when we are in the area.

Located on Front street in Ballston Spa, NY. Their dedicated staffed service for an enjoyable mid-day tea and more. Ordered the perfect house roasted turkey, cranberry, cheese on toasted sourdough, tomato soup and daily tea special.
Happy conversations in comfortably spaced seating with enough warmth provided an welcoming sit-down and enjoy. Friday 1:00pm was a short wait for a booth, which the hostess took upon herself to clear and clean.
Bravo, young lady. I love this place.

Cozy atmosphere. Love getting their crepes and french pressed coffee. Scones are also a must!

Enjoyed the variety of tea they offered & didnt feel too pushed to get a whole meal with my afternoon tea, but it was nice to know they had some really good foods to choose from, though I wish they had more gluten free options & they let you know about that. One of my personal favorites is their soups since they are warming and hearty!
