The Whistling Kettle - Schenectady

Stopped by for Sunday Brunch. Food was amazing! We were a couple so we had an awkward seating situation the way some tables were set up. Honestly though, the food and service made up for it!

Always on point, the Jay St. Whistling Kettle has much to offer in the way of flavorful teas, great customer service (thanks, Amanda! , and fresh ingredients. Their Balance Tea brewed extra strong offers sweet notes of licorice and will be like candy for children and adults alike. Looking for a low-guilt salad? Their Goat's Cheese is heavy on the greens and offers a hearty dose of chevre, soft. Their candied almonds are perfectly sweet and go great with the grapes against a

Enjoyed the time at this restaurant. We were a group of 4 and we had to wait 30 minutes to get a table. The food was good and presentation is excellent. We got the afternoon tea. Got the buffalo sandwich, soup and blueberry scone. The soup and sandwich is good. They have few vegetarian options as well. Staff was friendly. The restaurant gets busy on weekends so plan accordingly.

A really cute little brunch/lunch spot with unique serving and really friendly and polite staff. We ordered the afternoon tea , which gives you a choice of entree (sandwich/sconewich/quiche/etc), a choice of soup or salad, and a dessert. The lobster bisque was delicious, and I really enjoyed the green tea I got as well. Keep in mind that if you want a crepe for dessert it is a $4 upgrade, but I consider it to be worth it. Can 't wait to come back.

Amazing ambiance, overwhelming large selection, and fancy tea cups. What isn't to like? We're absolutely coming back on another date, and to try some flights of teas! I ordered one of the holiday special tea blends because the huge selection was, in fact, mind boggling.
