04 17 2008 12:55:12 PM MDT As a non-tea drinker, Kristen Harbertson was unready representing the pleasant experience she had the beginning time she walked into Teas 'N You. Located at 36 N. Main St.,
Farmington, and built in a former pioneer home, the "Tiny Tea House," as it is referred to, proffers a full menu complete with nearly 50 range of teas, including herbal flavors. But it wasn't just the delicious teas and sandwiches that intrigued Harbertson.
Breaking habit with the approximation that noisier is better when it comes to restaurants, Teas 'N You minister to as a respite to the soul along with a great culinary and cultural experience. You can't be in a quickness to eat there," Harbertson said.

But a tea party never crossed her mind. On the other hand once they were all settled in at Teas 'N You, the teens got into the act, wearing frisk tiaras and feather boas, while sipping tea and conversing in faux British accents.
From serving the Centerville woman who comes every week, and brings a different friend everyone time, to the men who don't mind stopping in for 'a spot of tea,' Leishman is having the time of her life. We want to be known definitely as a destination spot," she said. This is probably my favorite street Main Street in Farmington in all of the places I've traveled.
In the springtime, when the trees nearly meet in the middle, it pass over me the chills just thinking about it. We wish people to relax and enjoy the date they're spending, whoever they're spending it with." 36 N. Farmington.
