Absolutely loved my experience at Paparmane Salon de Thé .
Such a beautiful & elegant high tea spot with a true fairytale atmosphere. I went with my daughter & sister, & everything from the décor to the tea presentation felt so magical & relaxing.
The pastries, desserts, & tea selection were delicious, beautifully presented, & perfect for a cozy girls' day out. The ambiance was classy, peaceful.
The staff were welcoming & attentive, which made the experience even more special. Definitely a lovely place in Montreal for high tea, celebrations, or simply treating yourself
went to Paparmane to celebrate a birthday. The service was beyond excellent. Staff friendly, attentive & courteous. The bouchées were simply divine. The teas we drank were delicious & steeped to perfection . We splurged & took the Royal package which gave us the perfect portion of champagne. Highly recommend. will return in the fall to try their new offerings. #cheers
Excellent restaurant! We had a group of 9 & we were taken care of excellently. We overstayed our service chatting & taking in the ambiance. The manager gently advised us we were past our time. The experience over all was really lovely & I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone. Thank you!
Food was very good, good variety. I would have loved real clotted cream for the scones, but they had some kind of mascarpone stuff - still good just not clotted cream. I paid for the premium tea & it was worth it. Decor was beautiful but I would have liked the tea cups & teapots to be cuter, they were kind of ugly. Service was very nice, just took a bit of time for us to get our bill, but otherwise staff was lovely.
Une expérience extraordinaire. Un personnel vraiment attentionné, des mets délicieux, un thé délicat, un décor grandiose. Tout était parfait. J'ai fait beaucoup d'heure du thé & celle-ci restera gravée dans mon coeur. Super rapport qualité prix.
Après avoir essayé plusieurs salons de thé en ville, c'est celui que je préfère! Tout était à point: service, décor, mise en place, menu végé & choix de thé. Merveilleux, surtout une journée de pluie!

very good experience. went with a group of 5. nicely decorated & service was great. portions are really good & filling. all the different type of teas were very flavourful with distinct taste. they have 2 options one is vegetarian & the other is non veg which makes it very easy to chose.
We had a wonderful experience for Mother's Day. The food was delicious & the ambiance is so beautiful & unique. It's not very big so make sure to reserve.
They gave us a rose & tea packs for Mother's Day which was a lovely touch. Highly recommend as it was very memorable & special.
Walked in for tea service & sat at the bar. Paparmane exceeded our expectations! The food was excellent, especially the savory bites. This was such a fun experience during our weekend visit to Montreal.
