The Back Porch & Tea Room

When Merle and Ruth Price bought The Back Porch two years ago, they made only minor changes to the already popular menu and added a few personal touches to the décor. The lunchtime hot spot has a faithful fan base, folks who can’t resist their soups, sandwiches and salads (with Raspberry Tea, please). The upstairs room is ideal for catered bridal and baby showers, midday meetings and small groups, and if you forgot to pack a lunch before work, the Price’s are happy to deliver.

Though The Back Porch was always a lunch-only restaurant, the Price’s added Saturday morning breakfasts to the menu and are now toying around with the idea of adding dinner. Regardless, it will remain a place where patrons can enjoy the friendly back yard atmosphere, complete with folding chairs, screen doors and a wooden fence that encompasses the eatery. With food like Grandma’s, a weekday lunch – or Saturday breakfast – will fill you to the brim and you can even take your tea to go.

Monday through Friday, 11 a.m.-2 p.m.
Saturday, 7 a.m.-2:30 p.m.
Closed on Sundays

3440 Bell St, Suite 222 358-8871
