1810 Carter House Tea Room

New Brunswick


Choose from a plethora of tea, cakes and light lunches to enjoy in the restored home or the beautifully scented heritage garden. Owned and operated by a local volunteer group, it's a lovely place to recharge. Just ignore the supposed ghost who likes to tidy up and rearrange the books.
