À un pas de la Basilique Notre-Dame dans le Vieux-Montréal, le salon de thé Paparmane propose sa version colorée de l’heure du thé à l’anglaise dans un esprit gourmand et festif.
Paparmane propose une expérience de thé d'après-midi charmante et fantaisiste à Montréal, qui impressionne constamment les visiteurs par son décor magnifique et chaleureux ainsi que par son niveau d'hospitalité élevé. Les clients soulignent fréquemment la qualité du service personnalisé et attentionné, ainsi que la sélection délicieuse et saisonnière de bouchées sucrées et salées, présentées avec beaucoup de soin. Bien que l'expérience soit souvent comparée avantageusement à d'autres salons de thé renommés, de nombreux convives apprécient l'attention particulière portée aux détails, allant des installations adaptées aux enfants à la gestion efficace des restrictions alimentaires. Bien que certains clients aient noté que le système de réservation peut parfois être complexe ou que l'espace peut sembler restreint, la majorité des visiteurs repartent avec le sentiment d'avoir été choyés et avec l'envie de revenir découvrir les prochains menus saisonniers et célébrer des occasions spéciales.
Cute high tea spot! They have the whole experience for $55 which is a lot cheaper than other spots I've visited. They have a really large selection of fancy teas which is nice. I think the only thing that would have been nice is if the cups were actually fine bone china , & not just white cups, but that's just a personal preference.
Out of all the food, I really enjoyed the savoury items, some very original flavours. Would definitely recommend as a girls day for any occasion! Service was nice & offered to take a picture of all of us when the goodies arrived.
They also have a small boutique section in the front in case you want to buy their tea which could be cool.
The ambiance inside is adorable, with fun funky art & flowers, a fun twist on the concept of high tea.
there's something about afternoon tea that makes an ordinary afternoon feel just a little more special. while visiting montreal, i made reservations for a party of three at paparmane, a whimsical afternoon tea spot near old montreal that had been on my list.
we arrived a little early & spent some time at the tiny shop in the front, browsing the pretty teaware, cute gifts & smelling the loose leaf while waiting for our table. the space is quite small, so you do have to be mindful of other guests while looking around.
our table was ready about 12 minutes later. one small moment caught me off guard when a party of five who arrived after us was seated first & welcomed as vip guests. maybe they were celebrating something special, not gonna lie, i felt a little like chopped liver for a minute. i laughed it off & didn't let it affect the afternoon.
once inside, it was easy to see why paparmane is so popular. the dining room is enchanting, with blush pink walls, exposed brick, oversized flowers hanging from chandeliers, & an enchanted forest mural that gives the space a whimsical alice in wonderland feel. it stayed busy throughout our visit, yet never felt rushed.
having enjoyed many afternoon teas around vancouver, i appreciated how much thought went into both the atmosphere & presentation. it's elegant, playful, & incredibly photogenic without feeling overdone.
each of us received our own teapot with loose leaf tea in a sachet, along with a timer for steeping. oat milk was available as an alternative to milk, which was a nice touch. our server checked in once to offer more hot water for another steep, although we could have used a little more cream for the table.
when the three tier stands arrived, our server explained each item & offered to take photos for us, something we noticed was offered to every table. it was such a thoughtful touch, & honestly, the excitement level was high enough that the towers almost deserved a polite golf clap.
the food showed a lot of care & attention to detail. from the delicate pastries to the paper-thin cucumber sandwiches, everything looked thoughtfully prepared. i could almost imagine the chef carefully placing the finishing touches with tweezers. we loved the balance of sweet & savoury items, with a nice variety of flavours & textures.
the two miniature scones came with a delicious strawberry rosemary jam & sweet clover mascarpone cream. both were excellent, although i do wish the scones had been served warm. i also think an eclectic mix of mismatched vintage fine china would have perfectly matched the whimsical atmosphere, although i understand the practicality of using glassware.
one of my friends chose the vegan afternoon tea after seeing the neighbouring table's selection & absolutely loved it. we were pleasantly surprised to see a vegan option that was just as thoughtful & beautifully presented as the traditional offering.
despite the petite presentation, the afternoon tea was surprisingly substantial. we each managed only one of our two miniature scones before happily packing up the rest to enjoy later.
service was attentive & professional, although it felt more polished than personal. everything was handled efficiently, but it was missing that extra bit of warmth that takes good hospitality to the next level.
overall, paparmane is a lovely spot for a special occasion, a girls' afternoon out, or anyone who enjoys a little bit of whimsy with their tea. between the magical setting, beautiful presentation, quality teas, & thoughtful details, it was a memorable afternoon.
my only wishes would be warm scones, a little more cream for the tea, & perhaps a touch more warmth from the service. small details aside, it was a wonderful afternoon spent catching up with friends over tea, pastries, & plenty of laughter.
12 of us shared high tea on a firday afternoon. We had a really nice time.
The service was excellent. The tea was good enough (we traded amongst us so we got a big selection to base our opinion on) & some of the food was very good. I would really recommend hitting Paparmane up, especially at the price point they offer. It's less than half the price we paid for high tea at The Empress Hotel a couple of weeks ago.

C'était ma première visite dans un salon de thé du genre. Étant une grande fan des restos chez Janine & chez Régine, je savais que je n'allais pas être déçue. Le service était IMPECCABLE, & que dire de la déco whimsy à souhait! La sélection de thés & le menu dégustation était vraiment chouette. J'ai adoré la variété de saveurs offertes, pour célébrer la nouvelle job de mon amie. J'y retournerai avec plaisir!
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
