Floris at VMFA


Take a well-deserved respite within the beautifully designed Floris tearoom at VMFA. Inspired by French and English tea service, Floris’s robust rotating menu is steeped in inspirations from VMFA’s collections as well as various tea-centric regions of the world. Enjoy views of the Robins Sculpture Garden, while you partake in delicious chef-inspired creations paired with expertly brewed tea or a glass of wine.

Floris is open Saturday through Wednesday. Our signature tea service is from 11:30 am to 2:30 pm. Reservations are encouraged.

Walk-ins are welcome on a first-come, first-served basis from 2:30 pm until 4 pm, when Floris offers an á la carte and happy hour menu of wine, tea, and savory and sweet menu offerings.
