Salon de thé Le Gryphon d'Or offers a refined high tea experience with exquisite food and tea at very reasonable prices. Scones are described as fluffy and fresh, with a toppings flight and a wide tea selection to pair with them. Gluten free options are available, and the menu features a layered service with savory bites such as salmon quiches and cucumber tea sandwiches and a variety of desserts. The atmosphere is intimate and cozy, with friendly, attentive staff who make guests feel welcome and who even accommodate last minute changes. Reservations are recommended due to the small size, and some reviews note hours on Sundays can be inconsistent and cash payments may be preferred. Overall it is regarded as a gem and a place to return to, with many describing it as a memorable and comforting escape.
If you want a high tea experience, look no further! The food here & the tea are exquisite. The prices are also extremely reasonable. Absolutely loved the experience with my friend.
Lovely afternoon tea experience. Staff was incredibly friendly, & the bites were wonderful. We were offered refills on scones which were excellent & fresh out of the oven, & the scone toppings flight was a wonderful twist. Reasonably priced. Will definitely return.

If you're looking for a lovely afternoon tea in Montreal, then you've definitely come to the right place, rest assured you will not be disappointed at all, let's start:
1. We were served first with lovely fluffy scones & a selection from a variety of teas (I took apple pie, she took cream of Earl Grey).They also have gluten free scones which was appreciated (notify them when making reservations). The choice of 6 toppings (butter, cream, triple berry jam, marmalade jam, bourbon caramel, & lemon curd). EVERYTHING was delicious. We could have asked for more, but we saved space for the savoury round coming up next.
2. We had each gluten free selection & non-gluten free, it had: first layer: salmon quiches; Second layer: cucumber sandwiches, each sandwiches; Third layer: cheese cakes, shortbread cookie, cookie cake, butter tarts, & fresh fruit. Everything was fresh & we especially loved the cheese cakes.
3. We were so full & satisfied. Definitely, this will become a tradition for us to come to this place.
4. The staff were so personable & took time to chat with us, they were so friendly & welcoming & offered us the gluten free goodies to take home.
You'll see in the third picture that we ate everything!!!
On Google says open at 10am on Sunday, came for 1045.am & sign says 11. Waited 25 minutes no one showed up still closed. Not the best. I submitted updated hours but yeah.....
Adorable little place with delicious food. We got the afternoon tea service, which came with a scone, 3 tea sandwiches, 2 phyllo cups & an assortment of desserts each. The food was very well made & the tea selection was amazing. The scones were particularly amazing, soft & moist.
Afternoon tea is only served after 12h30, so make sure to make a reservation since it is quite small.
This is a true Gem in my life. You will not be disappointed with the service, food, & atmosphere. Donna has crafted, along with her amazing staff, a dining experience that rivals another out there. Don't think twice if you're looking for a great lunch experience. Small, intimate space in which Donna & her crew bring love & kindness &, above all, great meals. The tea room has a great variety of teas that will delight your senses every time. Thank you, ladies & gentlemen, who give us a little getaway from our hurried lives to chill & find ourselves. John

J'y suis allée avec mon fils & ma mère pour le thé & goûté, une expérience à refaire, le service parfait, les scones absolument délicieux, les sandwiches desserts tout autant. Le prix très abordable. Je vous le conseille
The tea flavors here are delightful. It's quite small so I suggest reserving. Scones were delicious & the people working there are nice. Very laidback atmosphere.

This is such a wonderful place to have afternoon tea !
I had to change my 2 people reservation, last minute , to one that included my 3 year old . They were very accommodating! They even made him a little tower with fruits & a grill cheese sandwich!
The service was great ! Everyone was kind , warm & friendly 😊
The food was so tasty with a lovely selection of tea !
My friends introduced me to this place, & told me they have some of the best house-baked scones in Montreal. I agree 100% with them. Top selection of teas, delicious desserts, superb service. We had a lovely meal at the Gryphon D'Or Tea Room & I will definitely come back.
Toujours aussi délicieux. Réservez pour le high tea. Excellent rapport qualité prix. Endroit chaleureux & enveloppant. Scones, thé & tartinades maison délicieux. Service délicat & attentionné.
