La Brume Dans Mes Lunettes is repeatedly described as a cozy, warm tea house with a charming atmosphere that many reviewers find perfect for a rainy day. Scones are a standout and a frequent favorite, with savory varieties like feta spinach singled out by some, and the three-tiered high tea towers are often noted as generous and good for sharing. The tea selection is generally praised, with jasmine tea commonly enjoyed, though a few readers feel the variety is not exceptional and the chai can be too light. Service receives mixed feedback: friendly and attentive staff in many visits, but occasional slow service, miscommunications, or insufficient portions for larger groups. The space is described as small and cozy, sometimes crowded, which can affect pacing and turn the experience into a social, intimate occasion rather than a formal tea room. Reservations are recommended as the place fills up quickly, and the setting, decor and overall experience keep many visitors returning for tea and scones, even if some visits highlight value or price concerns. Overall, the reviews present La Brume Dans Mes Lunettes as a delightful option for a unique high tea or cafe outing, with standout pastries and a warm vibe that outweigh occasional service hiccups.
I was here for a late brunch with a friend, it was out first experience with high tea & we really loved it. We ordered the King & the Queen brunch plates from the high tea menu. The bites we're all delicious, there was variety, & portions were surprisingly filling. The porcelaine was on point but not pretentious. They play a little tune when they served, it was cute. The scones were well sized & flavourful.
I went there for high tea & overall I enjoyed my experience. However, I wish the place was more vegetarian friendly. There is no vegetarian option on the menu but I asked for a vegetarian version of King in advance & they said it was no problem. Then they brought me a platter which they called vegetarian & they left without explaining in detail what it contained. I took a closer look & realized that they brought me salmon. I called the waitress & asked her if I was right thinking that this was real (non plant based) salmon. She confirmed & said that in their cafe vegetarian means'with fish' & if I don't eat fish it means I should order vegan. Eventually she brought me an egg sandwich as a replacement for the salmon, but I found it weird that vegetarianism was so misunderstood there & that the waitress framed the whole situation as me not making my dietary limitations clear. I am not planning to return because there are plenty of high tea places in Montreal that have good & truly vegetarian menus.

It's always a good time for high tea! I went with three friends for lunch last weekend & had a wonderful experience. The three-tiered tray was generous-perfect for two to share-with a nice selection of both sweet & savory treats. I paired the experience with a Jasmine tea, which was a lovely choice.
The place itself is cozy & has a warm, inviting vibe. Each time someone orders high tea, they play a charming English soundbite throughout the restaurant. The scones are a real standout-especially the feta & spinach, which were my personal favorite. The staff were friendly & attentive. Overall, it's a great option for anyone looking for a unique & delightful culinary outing!
i love this place for a cheeky tea time & their scones!! some of the best in the city 🌟i recently tried their grilled cheese + soup du jour (butternut & sundried tomato)….it made going out in the freezing wind so worth it
Although the food was tasty, the service ruined my experience. We were five people & were only suggested to take 2x the high tea towers & there was clearly not enough for the amount of people we were so we ended up placing 4 orders. With tower comes tea & scones, & when ordering the second set of towers our tea was not refilled & we had to ask for our scones, as the waiter forgot.
We had Rooibos & Chai tea. Roiboos was ok but the chai was not as strong as we would like it. Very very light & when we add a little milk to it it got even worst. We do not eat pork & beef - we asked if we could switch to something else - instead they replaced it by something sweet. Service for the food was a bit of a wait. We received the tea fairly quick but the food took some time to arrive. The quiche & bagel & scones were very good..The cucumber sandwich was good but the other ones with egg we did not like them - they tasted too much vinegar. A little bit deceived with the mishaps. The rest was ok.

Came here for tea & was not disappointed. Such a cute & cozy tea shop. The service is fast & they play a little song for you depending on if you got the king or queen platter. Everything was so delicious & more filling than you think. My favourites from the queen platter were the the prosciutto slider & the smoked salmon bagel. My favourite scone was the cheese one.
I also got a matcha & it was delicious. Just the right amount of sweetness.
I really recommend! Make sure to reserve as it is a small space & it gets full quick!
We took the afternoon tea deal. Everything was delicious, the place is not very big, feels more like a cute cozy tea place. If you're planning to take the same deal, I recommend the Queen's menu! The food, the scones & the teas were quite fresh & tasty. Highly recommend to come check this place out with either on a cute date or with a small group of friends.
Première expérience de Afternoon Tea à cet endroit. Nous avons aimé notre expérience même si le lieu était plus petit qu'on pensait. Les bouchées étaient plutôt bonnes.
Visited the tea room on January 4th 2024. Food : The 3-Tiered Stands were very good, everything served to us, we enjoyed. Both stands they offer were delicious. Service : Unfortunately, the service wasn't great. We know the employees did their best, as the place was packed & they seemed to only be 3 working during the rush. The wait time to be sit, take our order & receive our food was pretty long. As other reviews mentioned it, it took 50+ minutes to receive our food, & no one came to check on us during our time at La Brume. However, in other reviews, the owner seems to deem this as a pretty common wait… if it is, we will know what to expect next time. I'm wondering what's the point of choosing our 3-Tiered Stands in advance (claiming it will reduce the wait time) when reserving for a spot if the wait is still going to be almost an hour. Also, the only interaction we had with the staff was when they took in our order, & when they brought the tea & the food. Overall, they seemed pretty overwhelmed & we don't blame the staff. We just wish they had more people scheduled to offer a better service. Atmosphere : Very packed place, but very cozy. Despite the not so great service, we still enjoyed our afternoon at La Brume Dans Mes Lunettes.
This was our first time at this very cozy, warm, & welcoming place for tea time, & we had a delightful time! A simple & relaxing ambiance with a long list of delicious, creative, & traditional teas (we tried a few), 8+ different flavors of excellent scones, three-tier -tier serving tray full of sweet pastries & savory sandwiches, all made in-house. It all seems very fancy but is, in fact, very affordable. We would love to return & try more types of tea very soon!
Delightful tea place!! We ordered the afternoon tea set, the scones & pastries were so fresh & delicious. The music when tea was served was a playful touch. Really love the atmosphere of that cafe, & everything just tasted so good & excellent service as well.
Attended an afternoon tea for my friend's bachelorette & the delicious scones, tea, desserts & lovely owners made for the BEST event of our bachelorette trip! I can't get over how delicious all the scones were - especially the savoury ones & the lavender white chocolate variety! Un gros merci pour la meuilleure expérience !
