Maggie Mae's Tea Room

Recently while in Missouri, my Italian Man and I visited a lovely quaint Tea Room and gift shop. This pleasant establishment was in the middle of the country in Miller, Mo.

Nature’s Corner & Maggie Mae’s Tea Room was opened in 1996 by owners Jack and Marsha Hill and is still going strong today. When the Tea Room first opened it served 14 people. Today after several rooms have been added, this absolutely adorable Tea Room has been expanded to accommodate 130 people.

In 1997 the Victorian and Library rooms were added.

In 1998 the Banquet Room


In 1999 the Garden and Coke rooms

In 2001 the Terrace Room


And the newest room “The Tuscany Room” was added in 2005

While visiting with owner Marsha Hill I found out that Marsha started out as a florist and continues to do some floral work even today but most of her time is spent as proprietor of the Tea Room. Marsha works in the kitchen and is known in surrounding communities for her delicious food.
Though the Tea Room is only open Monday thru Saturday from 11am till 2:pm, Marsha spends much of her time catering and hosting large groups in the evenings and weekends.
Her business offers an array of services for all your special events.

Marsha has been amazed by the growth and need for expansion through the years and is appreciative of those who continue to enjoy the specialties that Maggie Mae’s has to offer. She admitted that the support of her husband has been essential to her success.

All the remodeling and construction has been done by Jack and Marsha.


I can assure you that if you decide to join Marsha for lunch you will not be disappointed.
The menu is broad and filled with wonderful choices of some of the most delicious, hearty foods you will find for miles.


The Italian man chose the special of the day: a hearty serving of chicken breast stuffed with wild rice and a wonderful spinach salad topped with the dressing of his choice (I can’t remember what that was).

Notice the sweet little flower shaped bread...

I chose the scrumptious Rueben sandwich accompanied by a tasty Waldorf salad (consisted of raw apples, celery, grapes and walnuts, dressed in a special dressing).

We opted to not have desert but I enjoyed a couple of cups deliciously hot tea and a raspberry ice tea. 

Marsha, Thank you so much for your hospitality! We enjoyed visiting with you as well as the food, gift shop and overall ambiance of your most lovely establishment. I hope we will have the opportunity to visit again some day.
