The tiny town of New Virginia, in Warren County, has a population of fewer than 500 people. It’s not typically high on anyone’s “places to visit in Iowa” list, but that’s because nobody knows about the hidden gem that’s nestled in the Iowa countryside – Miss Spenser’s Tea Room at Longview Farms.

Miss Spenser's Special-teas Tea Room is located on Longview Farms, at 3220 Wyoming St., New Virginia, IA 50210
