At whose house does Alice attend the famous tea party?

At whose house does Alice attend the famous tea party? The March Hare’s house.

In Chapter 7 of Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Alice follows the Cheshire Cat’s directions toward the March Hare and the Hatter. She arrives at a table beneath a tree, where the March Hare, the Hatter, and the Dormouse are having tea. The scene is therefore commonly called the Mad Tea-Party, but the location is specifically the March Hare’s house.

A common mix-up is to credit the Hatter because he is often the most recognizable character in illustrations and film adaptations. In Carroll’s original story, however, the March Hare is the host associated with the house and table. The Hatter is his companion, while the Dormouse is repeatedly woken during the conversation.

The scene’s endless tea reflects the Hatter’s explanation that he quarrelled with Time. As a result, it is always six o’clock—teatime—and the characters remain trapped in a cycle of changing seats, riddles, arguments, and unfinished cups of tea.
