The Tea Trolley A native of Brentford in West London, Wendy Richardson started The Tea Trolley in downtown Atascadero in homage to her mother, Winifred. “She always wanted a tea room, but being a single mum, she couldn’t do it,” says Richardson. “When we renovated this building I thought, ‘Why don’t I do a tea room? Because that’s what I know.’” Seventeen years later, Richardson has watched hundreds of guests wander into her charming Spanish-style bungalow—decorated with floral teacups, images of Elizabeth II, and Union Jacks—to be transported by the refinements of taking tea. As for the tea itself, offerings range from classic black teas like Darjeeling and Lapsang Souchong to herbal teas like a ginger-peach blend. Many come from England, as do the Devonshire cream and the recipe for traditional scones, shaped like a cylinder (not like a modern triangle scone, Richardson points out), and loaded with currants. “We bake almost everything here,” she says, placing a three-tiered array of biscuits, macaroons, chocolates, and lemon bars on our white lace tablecloth. My daughter and son, who’ve come to aid in “research,” (one of their favorite things), shocked me by waiting patiently for their goodies, saying “please pass the cream” and primly stirring their tea. Richardson chuckles. Context is everything, I think. 88 | SLO LIFE MAGAZINE | DEC/JAN 2018
