This place was super cute & incredibly aesthetic. The atmosphere was probably the best I've ever experienced in a restaurant-everywhere you looked, there was something fascinating, whether it was a piece of artwork or a unique decoration. It really added to the ambiance. The service was good. Food Review: I want to go into detail about everything I tried & rate each dish: Grilled Cheese - 2/5 Pretty boring-nothing special. I didn't like the flavor or the bread (which had pistachios & walnuts). It just wasn't good. I could easily make a better one at home. Shepherd's Pie - 4/5 It was amazing! The only thing I would change is adding some corn for a bit of freshness, since there was a lot of meat & it felt really dense. Ideally, it would have equal layers of corn, mashed potatoes, & beef. Deviled Egg - N/A I don't like eggs like that, so I can't really judge it. But I did like the Parmesan crisp on top. BLT Chicken Sandwich - 2/5 Super average. It lacked flavor-literally just tasted like chicken, lettuce, mayo, & mustard on bread. I could make this in two minutes at home. If I'm paying $54 for a meal, I want something more intricate, something that excites my taste buds. Potato Artichoke Luca with Salmon Mousse - 5/5 This was hands down my favorite of all the savory items. I'm not even a fan of salmon or fish in general, but it was amazing. I would eat 100 of these. Absolutely a 10/10. Scones & Desserts: Scones - 3/5 A little dry. I've had better scones that I made at home or from places like Milk. They needed more moisture. The jam, however, was incredible-I literally finished it with a spoon. The cream wasn't my thing, but that's just personal preference. Macaron - 2/5 This one was disappointing. I thought it was raspberry white chocolate (which is a great flavor combo), but it tasted like mint. The texture was good, though. Pistachio Cake - 1/5 Not for me. I don't like almond fondant or almond paste, & the pistachio flavor just wasn't it. Chocolate Mousse - 1/5 Did not like it at all. The popcorn on top also felt random & unnecessary. Overall Experience: Despite some of the food being hit or miss, I'm really happy I went. The experience was worth it-it was a nice way to spend a cute girls' brunch. I also appreciated the little touches, like them taking your coat when you arrive. Plus, the fact that it was so busy made me feel like I had chosen a great spot-clearly, everyone wants to come here!

Fun experience for a one time activity, good food but nothing exceptional

Un moment d'exception chez Paparmane Thé - High Tea ! L'ambiance raffinée & calme offre un cadre idéal pour savourer chaque instant. Le service est tout simplement hors pair, attentif & chaleureux. Une expérience incontournable pour les amateurs de thé & de délicatesse.
Marie
Super bon service mais nourriture très ordinaire. Vraiment dispendieux pour ce que c'est honnêtement. Je n'y retournerais pas mais je suis contente de l'avoir essayé.
Meg
Super service de notre serveur Keven. Il est venu plusieurs fois à notre table s'assurer que l'on manquait de rien & il était très sympathique. Un merci spécial à Pierre-Luc qui a de plus, arranger une table pour 2 pour moi malgré les places limités. La communication par courriel a été rapide & courtoise. Je recommande cette place, ils sont professionnels, sympathique & soucieux de leurs clientèles.

My friends & I celebrated my birthday at Paparmane, & it was such a magical experience! The beautiful rococo decor set the perfect atmosphere, & the tea selection was absolutely incredible - so many unique & flavorful blends to choose from. The tiered platters were a highlight for all of us, with delicious scones, sandwiches, & pastries that we couldn't get enough of. The staff were so welcoming & made the day even more special. We loved every moment & can't wait to be back for another unforgettable afternoon
Jenny
Pretty cute & magical feeling of venue, the food is amazing however the sweets are way too sweet if they put less sugar about 40%, I would like to visit regularly.
Lucas
Super salon de thé, très bons produits, un petit - pour l'ambiance qui était brouillée par le bruit des gens malheureusement mais endroit sympa
Martin
Incroyable ambiance! Service excellent! Nourriture & boissons parfaite!

Pretty place, definitely put the effort into decor. Could have put more effort into music though. Holiday tower was good overall & a nice variety, but it just wasn't fresh. It might be because we came for a later service but the grilled cheese & the mini pot pie were kinda cold, for example. I wouldn't recommend the Nutcracker rooibos, it definitely wasn't as nutty as I thought it would be. Service was friendly & attentive.

I've always enjoyed high tea & last had it at the Savoy Hotel in London so my expectations were relatively high. I was charmed by the entire experience, right from the moment I looked into the front window still decorated for the Christmas season. We were greeted immediately & brought right to our waiting table. The decor is whimsical, the service was both friendly & attentive & the food was a lovely mix of traditional with a Quebecois twist, as advertised. I will be returning next month with my two elderly aunts who I know will just love the experience, from decor to menu! We inquired as to when they had opened & were told last April (2024). For a relatively newer establishment, they have the feel of having been around for a lot longer! Love that we have this new option in the city!

Beautiful "Alice in Wonderland-ish" experience. Delicious bites (incl vegan options) of high tea delights served on beautiful 3-tier service trays. Prix fix at $60. Vegan options. Great selection of teas served in your own pot. Service is attentive, & the decor is delightfully fanciful. A real treat. Great for a special occasion. Practically no waiting room, so bundle up if you're outside. (Went in Jan.) & it was a bit loud to hear around our table of 4.

This is truly a gem! I highly recommend this place simply because this is the real tea lunch experience like in the UK. Classic, great service, amazing food, great menu & cosy ambiance. This gorgeous tea room makes you feel like in a very sophisticated old room of a beautiful Chateau. The kid menu is on point with the tea salon experience & the little touch for them was noticed & appreciated by my 8 years old daughter. She is telling all her friends about this experience & recommends it to anyone. As for the adult, i highly recommend this place for a great experience & a cozy fun time with friends &/or family. Let's not forget this place after Christmas as this is a gem that needs to stay in Montreal. Tea time is any day of the year. This will for sure become my go to place to have nice memories & discussions with my daughter.

Went for a girls' outing. The food was delicious, service was excellent. The decor created a great atmosphere. We reserved ahead of time as we were 11

Very cozy & beautiful place with a special atmosphere. Wonderful service & drinks. I will definitely come again to try desserts.
Annie
Wow au décor, bon service & très bon! C'est la deuxième fois & j'y vais & je vais y retourner c'est sûre.
Shane
It's a lovely place. Their vegan menu is really special. Food was on point, tea selection was great & the atmosphere although a little touch loud, was really nicely decorated. It is more of a fun high tea rather than a stately & calm one it seems.
