Had a lovely Mother's Day afternoon tea at Café Holt yesterday & everything was absolutely wonderful.
We've also been there before for brunch & every visit has been consistently great - beautiful atmosphere, attentive service, & delicious food. You can really feel the care & attention to detail in the whole experience. Definitely one of those places that makes you want to come back again

Located inside Ogilvy (Holt Renfrew), this spot is perfect for a drink or a bite after some luxury shopping. The staff is always friendly, & the drinks are excellent. My personal favorite is the passion fruit cocktail.
The food is also good, including their brunch options. It's the ideal place to sit with a friend, relax, & gossip about life.
Après une parenthèse shopping bien méritée dans l'univers prestigieux de Holt Renfrew Ogilvy, je me suis accordé un brunch au Café Holt - un moment de pur raffinement. J'ai choisi la tartine à l'avocat, servie sur un pain au levain grillé, relevée par une salsa d'avocat d'une grande fraîcheur, une touche subtile de feta, un soupçon de harissa & un oeuf poché parfaitement exécuté. Une assiette élégante, fraîche & raffinée, à l'image du lieu.
Le service, irréprochable & attentionné, fut rapide & élégant. L'ambiance chic & bien fréquentée, dans ce cadre contemporain, a sublimé l'expérience.
Un brunch exquis qui marie luxe discret, élégance & saveurs délicates. Un grand merci au Café Holt pour ce moment que j'ai savouré avec beaucoup de plaisir.

We came for a birthday brunch & brought our own cake, but we were charged $5 for each piece we cut to eat. On top of that, we requested twice to have the table cleaned before the cake arrived, yet they still placed it on a dirty table. You'd think that if they're charging for cutting the cake, they'd at least ensure the table is properly set for it, but they didn't pay attention to that & the beef tartare made us sick , I should've have eat in since even the color was almost grey . But service was good & it's nice spot
Un excellent chocolat chaud au lait d'avoine. Les pancakes étaient également délicieux, parfaitement moelleux. Le service a été irréprochable, même avec l'affluence au moment de notre arrivée. Cette expérience nous a donné envie de revenir pour tester le brunch ! À très bientôt !
Terrible service & welcome. The receptionist didn't bother to greet us, & the waiter (Lucas) kept coming to insinuate that it was time to leave 6 times, even though we were a large group of 5 & had only been there for 1.5 hours (each one ordered food from the brunch menu & drinks). Additionally, there was no queue & plenty of empty tables available. The food was okay. The only positive aspect of this place is the aesthetic.
we were 6 for brunch & got put on a table in the no window corner behind a worn out counter. Even though we'd reserved 2 weeks in advance. Food was adequate & not up to par for the $$$$ I mean who serves 2 egg bennies on one piece of whole-wheat toast Quite mehhh ..... maybe better for cocktails in the evening. Bar looked nice.
