High Tea at The Still: Experience a Fancy Tea Party in a Speakeasy 

Nov 10, 20231 min read

It’s a very merry unbirthday to everyone who joins a tea party inside The Still — the mysterious speakeasy hidden behind the walls of Vero Amore on 2920 N. Swan Rd.

Every Saturday and Sunday now and throughout the month of December, The Still is hosting High Tea. Reservations are required to attend one of these tea parties, too, so get decked out in your favorite tea party attire, invite your tea-lovin’ friends, and have a unique experience.

Here’s how it works:

Right now, there are two seating times at noon or 2 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Reservations are required with a $10 deposit and seats are $35 for each adult and $20 for kids under the age of 12.

Call (520) 667-6667 to make a reservation.

Everyone attending the tea party will be served a scone and clotted cream, jam, a small cup of soup or a mixed salad, and desserts. Plus, they’ll be offering a variety of locally sourced teas.

There are two meal options at the High Tea:
  • The Traditional Cold Special – four cold tea sandwiches: chicken salad, egg salad, cucumber, and smoked salmon
  • Vero Amore Special – includes a small slice of Margherita pizza, a caprese skewer, a small panini, and a prosciutto smoked cheese rollup

More about Matt

At a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.

He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.

If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
