If you’ve ever dreamed of a proper high-tea afternoon in New York, London, or Paris—tiered trays, delicate pastries, polished service, and a room that makes time slow—Madeline Garden in Pasadena is your local passport to that feeling ✨🫖

Instead of chasing a reservation across the country (or across the ocean) ✈️🌍, you can step into an atmosphere that carries that same old-world elegance right here in Southern California—romantic, transportive, and made for savoring 🕯️🌿

Madeline Garden delivers the classic tea cadence: a curated selection of teas, a beautifully composed tier, and the sweet-and-savory balance that makes high tea feel like an event—not just a meal 🍰🥪🍓

So if your heart is set on the high-tea world of NYC hotels, London drawing rooms, or Paris salons—come to Pasadena and let Madeline Garden give you the same energy: refined, unhurried, and quietly luxurious 💐👒🤍

Madeline Garden’s story begins with the building it inhabits: the Cheesewright Studios Building, raised in 1927 as a statement of taste by interior architect Edgar J. Cheesewright—then celebrated for elite residential and hospitality work. He chose Pasadena because his clientele clustered there, and he wanted a home base that felt as refined as the houses he designed. 

Cheesewright didn’t build a simple office—he commissioned a substantial studio complex of more than forty rooms (about 35,000 square feet), with offices, design rooms, showrooms, and workshops, arranged to read like an elegant private residence rather than a factory of commerce. The architecture is widely described as French Quarter–influenced (often also labeled Colonial/Georgian), and the interiors were curated with antiques and artistry to reinforce that illusion of lived-in grandeur. 

Then history took a sharp turn: after the studio era, the site changed hands and uses, including a notable wartime chapter—by 1943, Cheesewright leased space to Caltech, where scientists conducted nuclear fission research, and the building later became tied to Navy research administration. 

Today, Madeline Garden brings the property back to its original spirit—beauty, ritual, and a sense of occasion—by framing afternoon tea inside rooms that still carry the building’s old-world atmosphere. It’s not just “a place to eat,” but a setting where the architecture and the ceremony of tea work together, letting guests step into Pasadena history for a few unhurried hours.
