History

Established in 1986.

Happiness is Home-​Made…

We bring a taste of home and family to everything we do. Each day you’ll find Beverly Bruce, together with her daughter Molly Fries, working side-​by-​side to set the table for a truly different dining experience.

These key ingredients blended with the support of our friends and families (especially Bev’s husband, Cliff Bruce and Molly’s boyfriend, Raphael Fernandez), enable us to make the world just a little happier… one home-​made dish a time!

Over the years, we’ve perfected our recipe for «Home-​Made Happiness» and we think it looks a little something like this:

1) Fold in old friends with new

2) Bake up great food and good times

3) Serve in a relaxed, family atmosphere that feels just like home

Fold in old friends with new

When you visit The Tearoom you’ll not only taste the difference that home-​made food makes, but you’ll enjoy the personal attention that we strive to give each of our guests.

A little more about Beverly Bruce



Bev is a local gal with a love for antiques, gardening and of course… cooking! Country Keepsakes began as a storefront where Bev was able to share her love of arts+crafts and home décor. Over the next few years, she discovered her passion for cooking and found that food… not unlike life… is better when surrounded by beautiful people and beautiful things. In 1990, she combined her love of food and home, and The Tearoom was born.
