4 /5 Ada Kiugo: “Lovely spot for brunch or tea — cozy, vibrant, and full of charm.”
The Whistling Kettle in Troy offers a warm atmosphere with a wide variety of teas and a solid food menu. I had the scone sandwich (sconewich), and it was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. Their crepes and salads are also great, with plenty of vegetarian options.
The space is bright and inviting, though it can get a bit noisy during peak hours due to the high ceilings and crowds. Still, it’s a popular spot for a reason — the staff is friendly, the tea selection is extensive, and the food hits the mark.
Perfect for catching up with friends over brunch or enjoying a quiet tea moment (if you go at off-peak hours). Definitely worth a visit!
