Garden Gate Tea Room - American restaurant in Granite City - 1410 Niedringhaus Ave, USA

The employees are always so friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is like none other. Check it out! The food is always fresh and at the perfect temperature. You would not be disappointed.

Checked this place out while working in the area. I cant say how impressed I was with the food and service. It is a nice small quaint atmosphere. Food is great hometown American. They have sandwiches, wraps, salads and soups. Menu was diverse but not so large that you couldn't decide what to get. The owner was out working on the floor the entire time we were there and I was impressed. Our server was amazing! Highly recommend.

A must go!! Menu is beautiful and eclectic! The owner is a hometown woman and comes out to greet all of her guests! Staff is so friendly! Been there for years and have great clean appearance but also serve you quick and worth the quickness for lunch breaks! They make sure your glass is never empty! You don’t have a wait for your food but it’s also cooked to order. Nothing sits around! The decorations are so eclectic, feels like stepping into a foreign land with a great vibe and atmosphere! It’s more quiet, we don’t take children there and don’t see others; as most lunches are the city officials and business class and not quite the environment for the kiddos during business lunches and/or private bridal lunches or shower parties w/lunches!

Garden Gate Tea Room has been around for over 20 years and is really a staple in Granite city. If you're looking for something a little more upscale, reasonably priced, and delicious to boot, Garden Gate Tea Room really is the place to go.

Excellent service! food comes out like art work. This is a very good restaurant.

The lobster bisque was very disappointing. It was white instead of the usual reddish color and tasted more like creamy potato soup. Everything else was wonderful. We each had a different sandwich and all of them were well prepared and tasted great

The atmosphere and staff are great! I felt like I was in a quaint garden for lunch. Above all else the food is so delicious. It's fresh and so many flavor combinations I wouldn't have thought of. Salads, sandwiches, soups and delightful desserts! Once you go to the garden gate you'll keep going back! I know I have!

The food and service are wonderful. Make reservations.
