(Cue the town crier, ringing bell, reading scroll)

Hear ye! Hear ye!

Mi lords and mi ladies,

Be it known that today Crown & Crumpet, a cheery new tea room and boutique, opens its doors to all citizens at Ghirardelli Square, serving breakfast and a full British afternoon tea daily, light lunches Monday through Friday, and early evening aperitifs.

On the addendum: toasted crumpets with English cheddar, smoked salmon sandwiches, and freshly made scones served with clotted cream. Marvel amongst an assortment of 32 teas ranging from chocolate mint to peach oolong and other proprietary blends of black, white, and green.

Lads and lassies may commune inside at the farm table and lounge about on sofas or take in the sun on the outdoor terrace whilst the trolley dollys serve their fancy.

Take note: Patrons will also receive up to an hour and a half of validated parking.

God save the queen!
