tea rooms

In the late 19th century, a handful of tea rooms and shops emerged as public places of refreshment in the United States, marking the movement of a tradition of the home parlor into the marketplace. Often run by women and patronized largely by women, tea rooms provided employment, helped define the feminine in dining customs, and assisted in integrating women into public life.
