About Black Kettle Tea Rooms
A traditional tea room in the Dandenong Ranges, Black Kettle Tea Rooms sits in Sassafras with a respectable 3.8-star Google rating. The Dandenong Ranges tea room tradition is one of the region's enduring charms — English garden settings, traditional service, and an unmistakable sense of stepping out of normal time.
Devonshire teas — scones, jam, cream, pot of tea — are the classic order, though most tea rooms also do full high-tea spreads (best to book ahead) and light lunches. Atmosphere is the draw: think lace tablecloths, antique china, English-garden settings.
One recent guest summed it up: "餐點非常好吃，很澳洲道地的漢堡及派，服務生也非常親切，不過，要有心理準備會等很久喔！"
