La Cour des Palmiers

Beautiful atmosphere, but not worth the money. Afternoon tea costs 64$ per person. It took them an hour to serve us our food & tea, which is so long given that there are very specific bookings you have to show up for. Because it took them so long to serve the food, we were starving by then, & it made the portion sizes seem even smaller. The food mostly tasted good (though not great) with the exception of an underwhelming cucumber sandwich, but it's definitely not worth the price.

Ritz Montreal definitely feels much more than Shangri-La Toronto, with an exceptionally good service attitude. Shangri-La's service attitude in Toronto is like you owe them money.

I went here for afternoon tea & it was wonderful! For 59 Canadian dollars a person, the Ritz-Carlton in Montreal is the perfect place to experience luxury at an affordable price. However, my one tidbit is that it seems as if they tried too hard to be fancy. Afternoon tea can be fancy, but it doesn't mean you need to make the food super complex. Was it bad? Not at all, but I still would've preferred simpler versions of everything & not the deconstructed-type food that people may view as being'fancy'

My mom & I had a beautiful experience enjoying our afternoon Tea. The sandwiches were divine, the flavors were inventive, fresh & rich. My favorites were a roast beef sandwich with truffle, which was rich & creamy. & a cucumber & caviar boat. Which was fresh with a touch of creaminess. The pastries were delicious. Including a mousse that tasted like caramel popcorn. It was resting on a delicious & buttery pie dough. The scones were also delicious, & the spreads were on point, specially one with strawberry & rose.
I loved their tea selection. Their options were fresh & very tasty.
The servers were very kind & attentive. Services was well timed. & everyone explained everything to us very clearly when we mentioned it was our first time.
It was a very nice experience! Loved the decor, including the huge painting of Artemis.

First time Palm court, high tea for us.
Hostess was very nice. Then, the waitress arrived. She seemed nice at first. Then she arrived carrying 2 metal plate carriers of food which was too much for her. She placed the first metal plate carrier in the middle. 2 of the 3 plates started to slide off the carrier. We corrected it by holding them. She continued to push it anyway & spilled half of my tea cup all over the tablecloth.
She promised to come & fix her mess. She never came back.
Some of my sandwiches had wet bread. One little orange pastry was inedible.

She never checked on us afterwards. She disappeared!
My daughter was happy, I was underwhelmed with this experience. Super expensive. I wouldn't go back.

I wanted to chime in along with others who have also expressed their disappointment about slow services - (hopefully management will do something about it). The service is VERY slow - just coming to take our order & to bring out the tea & then the food.... I think they are understaffed & the hotel would do well to hire an extra waitress. It was overall a frustrating experience, especially given the price of the afternoon tea. If you're looking for afternoon tea in Montreal, I recommend looking elsewhere - there are other hotels & some tea parlours in Old Montreal with much better service (& better food!)
