Absolutely loved it.
We went for the mother's Day brunch & it was a lovely experience from start to finish.

It was paid in advance through the reservation process which made it that much more flawless during the lunch. Not having to deal with the bill & money makes the experience more pleasant.

The food was A1 for everything. Tea was delicious (Sensa, Macha, Ginger & tumeric & Earl Grey), the sandwiches were original but all made with great ingredients (shout out to the fresh mozza & pesto ❤?), the pastries were buttery, flaky, sweet, everything! Honestly, there was not a single item that we didn't love.

The staff was attentive yet not overbearing. It's a nice balance that allowed us to take our time but never feel like we were forgotten.

The place is on the smaller side but very cozy. The vibe & decorations were exactly what I want a high tea experience to feel like. Cute, delicate but with a bit of pizazz & humour.

For four people, the price felt very balanced for the service & food we received. Not too much or too little, but just right.

I definitely recommend it to whoever wants a high tea experience that's not pretentious but serves fresh & delicious food & tea.

We came for the Peter Rabbit High Tea to celebrate Easter while visiting Montreal & were immediately charmed by the cozy vibe, music & cute decor on the 2nd floor seating area that reflected the Easter theme. The three-tiered tray of tasty food was generously portioned, especially the sandwiches. A delightful refreshing mocktail & a huge pot of tea were included. We loved the Easter themed macarons, mini bundt cakes & cookies!

The service was amazing as they frequently checked on us & when they noticed we were so full after the sandwiches & scones, they offered to pack the desserts for us to take away.

While we were there, we noticed we were the only ones dining upstairs. All customers came in to order something to take out. It felt like we had our own private oasis for the afternoon so we think this lovely cafe is a hidden gem. A hidden gem that we will definitely return to when we're back in Montreal!

Went here today for high tea, something my mom loved doing with her girls & grandkids. I told the hostess it was just me, & that I was there to remember my mom. The food was all very good, but the sweetest thing was that she wrote some really thoughtful messages on my teapot. Honestly, just the kindest, most lovely thing for a hard day. What a wonderful place this is!

If you are looking for a private room for a small group of people, Bar à beurre has a wonderful place for you! We were looking to host a high tea for 20 people, following a courthouse wedding & instantly fell in love with the lovely decor of their private room. Vanessa has been responsive & attentive to our needs, was accommodating to some of our guest's allergy requirements, & had put together a beautiful setting, all in respect to the thematic of our wedding event. The attention to detail was noticed & appreciated by all. Her team on the floor were present & responsive, always nice & courteous to me & my guests. We pre-selected a number of teas from their provided list of teas & the selection was varied enough to satisfy everyone's taste. I personally enjoyed their earl grey & peach tea. The food tasted fresh, the selection of sweets are tasty & the service paired nicely with our teas. I especially remember their matcha macarons & cupcakes. Thank you Bar à beurre. We had a lovely wedding event & your decor, food & service have contributed to making this day memorable.
