Update: As of December 26, 2022, Teaberry’s and Heart of Ohio Gift Shop has closed.
Restaurants can bring on a nostalgic feeling and I felt that as I entered Teaberry’s in Springfield. I remembered visiting craft stores when I was younger and vividly recollected the menu of home-cooked meals. I was so happy to be visiting here again to try some of the cooking that reminded me of my favorite lunches we shared at my Grandmother’s house.
We were seated straightaway and our server took our drink order. It was a hot sunny day in my hometown and so I ordered the lemonade, trying to decide on what I would have for lunch.
Once I had decided on the chicken salad sandwich with cauliflower salad, I took time to read the historical account of Teaberry’s learning that the restaurant had once been a two-room schoolhouse in Clark County, built in 1868. It later became a home, a gift shop and the restaurant was added in 1998. Today, Teaberry’s has expanded by adding five rooms to accommodate up to 120 guests.
The serving of chicken salad was overflowing from the perfectly baked croissant, lightly toasted with a think layer of butter. The broccoli salad was dressed with a sweet and salad dressing, which was absolutely delicious.
Of course I had to save room for their famous “orange cakes”, which were moist and full of flavor. Completely full, we had time to shop and found a few items to decorate my home and gifts for the upcoming holiday. I’m not sure which I had enjoyed more…the lunch or the shopping, but both were quite enjoyable.
