A Delightful Stop in the Heart of the Gardens
The Annapolis Royal Historic Gardens is home to the Elm Tree Cafe. Refreshments and light lunches are available, with indoor and outdoor dining under the shade of a giant weeping Elm.
The Elm Tree Cafe is open from early June until early October. Hot and cold beverages, sweets, frozen treats, and light lunch items are available, with limited seating inside the Cafe, and more tables outdoors on the patio and on nearby benches.

Enjoy a delicious selection of freshly prepared food and beverages right in the heart of the Gardens — the perfect way to pause, recharge, and take in the surroundings.
Dine Outdoors in the Gardens
There are few better places to enjoy a meal than surrounded by the beauty of the Historic Gardens. Our outdoor seating makes every visit to the Café a little more special.
The Perfect Mid-Visit Stop
Whether you are looking for a light snack, a satisfying lunch, or simply a warm cup of something to enjoy on your walk, the Elm Tree Café is always a welcoming place to stop.
Elm Tree Cafe Creations
Staff at the Elm Tree Cafe create fresh new delights every day, from sandwiches and hot hand pies to desserts and sweets. Locally roasted Sissiboo Coffee is a popular beverage, as well as our own iced tea and lemonade. Signature offerings include our handmade ice cream sandwiches and kids really love our chocolate chip cookies.
