The Camellia Tea Room is a volunteer-run café occupying the former drawing room of the historic Milner estate, set within the Milner Gardens & Woodland botanical property on the outskirts of Qualicum Beach with views over the Salish Sea. The seasonal menu draws directly on produce grown in the estate gardens and features house-made scones, rotating soups, and desserts alongside teas sourced from the local Denman Island Tea Company. It is a genuinely distinctive stop on Vancouver Island's cycling routes, though cyclists should note that garden admission is required to access the tea room.
