There are definitely some options for you.
One of the most quaint and charming places I can think of is The Tabard Inn. On nice days it has outdoor seating on a patio with wrought-iron tables and vine-covered walls - as well as a charming indoors in a wonderful old building full of antiques, very old-school with oil paintings and Oriental rugs, but not stuffy and stuck-up. I'm not sure if they do tea per se, but they have wonderful drinks and nibbles. They will also arrange private party rooms for small groups. Check it out in the link I've provided below.
As for a traditional tea party, one of my favorite places is just a little bit out of the city in Alexandria. Even though it's "across the river" it's really not far at all; it doesn't really qualify as a suburb (even though, unlike downtown DC, there's actually parking). And Old Town Alexandria is so charming! The place I'm thinking of there is called The Morrison House, and they have a wonderful tea from 2-5 on Saturdays. I'll post the link to the page called "The Grille" - their restaurant - which where the tea is hosted. When you see the menu and pictures of this very elegant place you'll fall in love.
There is also the possibility of tea at the Four Seasons, a very nice hotel in Washington D.C. I'll include the link to a page that's especially set up just for a shower tea (how perfect, right?) The page says bridal, but they can't turn you down just because it happens to be a baby shower - I know this for a fact!
How about the Country Cupboard Tea Room in Kensington, MD?Looking for a good restaurant to hold a baby shower in Washington, DC?
Mc Donalds, get the happy meals
