Lovelock Tea House
This is my favorite Tea House in the entire city, probably the entire world, I just haven't visited them all yet...and I'm not gonna tell you why.This is a small family owned Bubble Tea House, like many others in the city of Izkmyr. Sasika, used to make bubble tea, is a big natural resource from this area of the kingdom of Ariezzen on the island of Bittra. Sasika is one of the major exports of the kingdom along side Tserinzha , a popular spice, and glasswares.
Location
The Tea House is located in a district in the northern parts of the city called “The Black Market” by the locals. It's close to the docks, a commercial area, a high school, and the local university. The café sits snuggly between a bookbinder and a jeweler. The three stores were actually considered the same building once, back when it was an antiquary owned by a rumored magician. When the magician died a distant relative inherited the building. The relative tried to rent out the building but there was nobody that wanted to rent the large building, so the new owner split the building up into three houses and rented them out to small shop owners. The other two buildings were later purchased by their renters while this building was inherited by the relative's son when the relative passed away. That son later lost the deed to the building in a bet. The current owner of the house still lets the Lovelock family continue to rent it.The building
The ground floor is used for the café while the two other floors is inhabited by the family who is also renting out a couple of rooms for short time quests. One of the regulars renting a room for a couple of days every other year is a bard calling themselves Dawn. This bard usually pay for their stay by helping in the café and entertaining the patrons with music. The front of the building is dark brown stone while the other two buildings are grey painted wood. The window casing on all three buildings is white painted wood while the roofs are box gabled in black stone. On either side of the building are thin alleys that have split the buildings. Though, the three of them still share the same foundation. On top of the front door sits a wooden sign with the logo of the Tea house.The Menu
The teas
There are several regular teas that are standard on the menu if you are planning to stay at the cafe, mostly made from local plants and fruits. There are some more fancy limited teas made from imported plants. As for the bubble teas, there are two standard ones and two limited ones also for consumption at the café.
There are also custom bubble teas that can be consumed at the café or be taken away from the cafe as takeaway orders. The bubble teas consumed in the cafe are served in fancy glasses while the takeaway teas are served in mugs that the customers bring in themselves or buy at the cafe.
The cookies
Most of the cookies are seasonal however, because of the popularity of the Jam bites and the Raisin cookies they have become regulars on the cookie menu.
The cakes
There are seasonal cheese cakes on the menu as well as jam cakes.
It's possible to order custom cakes, however, they ask that the customers order their custom cakes at least 4 days in advance.
The sandwiches
Many companies in the area order sandwiches from this cafe for lunch. Some of these companies are even other cafes.
The cafe currently has two types of bread; The first is Light bread that is sweet, soft, fluffy, and apparently bad for your health if you eat too much. The second is Dark bread, it’s savory, full of fibers, satisfying, and good for your health. These types exist in two shapes; The first is a small loaf that is almost cut all the way in half and filled with its condiments. The second shape is actually three large flat slices of a loaf. These slices are in the shape of a triangle. In between these triangle slices lay the condiments.
The sandwiches are complete custom orders and the available ingredients vary from season to season but there is always a wide selection of vegetables, meat, and fowl. Fish is only available during a short period over the summer as fish is a commodity on Bittra .
The sallads
There are three regular salads on the salad menu, otherwise, customers can custom order the salads with the same available ingredients as the sandwiches.
The salads are served in glass bowls with the cafe’s logo on them. The takeaway salads are served in the bowls that the customers bring with them. If a company from the area has ordered the salads they are expected to bring the glass bowls back.
The three regular salads are the fried Chicken Salad, the Bacon Salad, and the Red Salad.
The Fried Chicken salad Consists of salad leaves, fried potato bits, fried chicken, tomatoes, assorted vegetables, and a mild Tserinzha dressing.
The Bacon salad consists of salad leaves, fried potato bits, bacon, assorted vegetables, nuts, and a mild garlic dressing.
The Red salad consists of salad leaves, macaroni, redbird, available mushrooms, available assorted vegetables and a hot Tserinzha dressing or olive oil.
Oh this sounds delightful, and a nice touch with the one more-luxurious room with its own bathroom. Lots of thought into the schedule, and a nice relaxing layout. Out of curiosity, what tool did you use for the blueprints?

Thank you! :) ...updated it with a little more information.
To get the proportions right and check so the furniture I wanted in every room fit, I quickly threw it together in https://floorplanner.com/ ...then I moved it over to my drawing program of choice (Manga Studio, now named Clip Studio Paint Pro) and just drew over it with white so it would match the other images. XD; ...I only had a couple of hours to throw together all the images that I wanted. XD;; ...In the fufure I hope to be able to do all the places in this world in Blender. :3
