Find traditional English tea room atmosphere in downtown McGregor

Submitted by admin on Tue, 10/10/2023 - 13:39

Enjoy a traditional English tea room experience in the heart of downtown McGregor at the new McGregor SpecialTea Shoppe. The business opened Sept. 30 at 240 Main St., fulfilling a long-time dream for owner Maureen Wild. (Photos by Audrey Posten)

McGregor SpecialTea Shoppe offers 45 different kinds of tea as well as coffee, quiche, soup, tea sandwiches and baked goods.

Owner Maureen Wild hopes McGregor SpecialTea Shoppe will be an oasis—where people can relax by the fire or sit in one of the windows and people watch. Wi-fi is available, allowing people to work if they’d like. “I want it to be like an English tea room. I think people love the atmosphere of it. It’s not rushed. It’s a place to come and relax,” Wild said. “Almost everybody who comes in spends at least an hour sitting with whoever they are with and enjoying the atmosphere.”

Opening the doors wasn’t easy. Wild had to create a business plan and secure financing. The building also underwent a rehabilitation, including new windows and paint and electrical and plumbing upgrades.
