Savanna & Steep: Pop-Up Bistro 

Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays Through September 6, 18 S Broadway, Nyack

Savanna & Steep’s is a place where good karma is served with every cup, where we blend history, art, and community support. By attending this pop-up event, you are helping preserve a historic building, foster the arts, and support Soup Angels in their mission to serve meals to those in need for 20 years. Let’s create positive change together!

Afternoon tea is a cozy, relaxing way to enjoy good company over small bites and a pot of tea. It usually includes a mix of sweet and savory treats—like finger sandwiches, scones with jam and cream, and little cakes—served on a tiered tray. It’s not about rushing or a full meal, but about slowing down, sipping tea, and savoring the moment.

Check out our tea totaler photographer Andrea Swenson’s photos of the lively and relaxing scene here.
