Tucked away in the heart of Pinehurst’s historic Village, Lady Bedford’s is like stepping into your favorite Victorian novel—complete with lace tablecloths, crystal teacups, and the kind of cozy vibes that make you sigh “ahh” the second you walk in. Originally opened in 2008 by Marian Caso (named in honor of the Duchess of Bedford), it quickly became the local go‑to for everything from birthday teas to bridal showers
🍰 What Makes Lady Bedford’s Special
This charming tearoom seats about 36 guests—28 in the main room and a few more in the snug parlor—and is beloved for thoughtful menu items like a Kentucky bourbon bacon quiche and an “Anna Maria” turkey croissant layered with strawberry jam and cream cheese.
Whether you're popping in for breakfast, lunch, or an elegant afternoon tea, you’ll find more than 60 loose-leaf teas beautifully brewed to order. And let’s be real—those sweet and savory bites alongside fine china? Total tea party goals.
