The rarebit Benedict & the stuffed French toast (apple + caramel) were exceptional. Staff are friendly, ambiance is cozy. I'll be back again soon!View more
Such a cute place for afternoon tea! The staff is so kind, & the portions are generous. The ambiance is cozy & perfect for a relaxing afternoon with friends. The selection of teas is great, & the desserts are absolutely delicious (scones are amazing!!). Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy a lovely afternoon treat!View more
I visited this cozy, vibrant tea room with my two daughters for some afternoon tea. We got a warm welcome from this gentleman (apologies for not remembering your name) along with Donna, who came to check up on us a few times to make sure the food was upto our tastes & according to our dietary restrictions (no pork & alcohol). We probably had the best scones here after England! The spread for their afternoon was aesthetically pleasing & sufficient for 5-6 people. Donna sent us home with complimentary freshly baked scones! The whole dining experience was very enjoyable, & they made us feel right at home. We will be returning soon! Thank you to the team of Gryphon d'Or for delivering an exceptional service!View more
Visited this cozy little nook of a tea room with a couple of friends. I had called ahead to request gluten-free options for a member of our group which they were able to accommodate without any issues (she had her own personal tiered tray of GF options!). The service we received was impeccable & the staff are sweet, friendly, welcoming & hilarious : ) Personal tea faves are the Winter Spice & mint. Scones (with clotted cream) are truly delicious.View more
Not your usual high-tea spot. This cozy place offer a delicious aromatic variety of teas. Their scones hug your soul along with their heavenly home-made jams, caramel, cream, & more to devour with scones. Their adorable sandwiches & desserts will not only fill your appetite but your heart. I truly appreciated their warm & bubbly service. Please note they only take cash or E-transfer.View more
We reserved the tea room as a large group of ~20 people, & we were blown away with the service, quality & ambience. Firstly, we really appreciated the cozy, laid-back atmosphere. The food was delicious & filling, many of us had to bring home leftovers as we were too stuffed. The quality of the food was great too, the standouts being the freshly baked scones, phyllo cups & the mini-cheesecakes. Above all, the service was excellent. The waitstaff were lovely, congenial & attentive. For many of us, this was our first experience having afternoon tea, & I can confidently say that the Gryphon D'Or set the bar high! Would definitely go back in the future & highly recommend.View more

We came here for the afternoon tea today for my friend's birthday. The service was really wonderful & the cafe is really cozy. I don't understand the few snobby reviews of the afternoon tea service. I wasn't expecting a super high end hotel tea service (though it was my first time having an afternoon tea anywhere), & that was kind of the point. It was really good value for the amount of food we received while still being accessible for our budget. On to the food...the highlights for me were the scones & the desserts. Every bite was phenomenal & we loved the assortment of different toppings for the scones. The brownies were amazing. The sandwiches & salmon & veggie cups were great too. I enjoyed every bite of food I had. They did forget to write a little happy birthday for our friend, but we were enjoying ourselves so much we didn't even notice. The waiter very cleverly asked us which scone toppings we preferred under the guise of curiosity, but they apologized for forgetting the birthday & sent each of us home with an extra scone & cookie & our respective favorite topping. Totally unexpected & unnecessary, but we really appreciated it a lot. I can't wait to come back for a date with my boyfriend (who really enjoyed the food I brought home). Thank you for a really lovely afternoon! My only suggestion would be to list the hours of the tea service online - it would have been useful to have this information beforehand.View more
All I can say is I wish I had discovered this little gem years ago. So cozy & such a friendly & generous staff. As for the food, everything was perfect & so fresh. The scones were served hot with their homemade jams, creams & custards. The assortment of petit fours were absolutely delicious. I can't pick a favourite as they were all so yummy & moist. We almost cleaned out the 3-tier plate, but then were ready to burst. I'm definitely going back & you should go too.View more
First experience of high tea. Was expecting something more fancy but it was a different style : very Canadian & cozy in simplicity. It was pleasant specially due to the nice circle of friends. The place is quite small. Don't go with big groups; you won't be seated together. The max they can fit together is 6 persons.. the tea & the food were good...a little bit pricey I believe for what they serve for the high tea. They do offer lunch or dinner menu as well.. it was hard to find the place; should be more visible from the outside. Parking in the street...paid ones.View more
What a gem!!! An unassuming & unpretentious little place with the friendliest staff & some seriously delicious scones. The homemade condiments were very, very tasty (as in lick the spoon) & the high tea was a nice little mix of sweet & savory. They are on my list of places to visit the next time I'm in town. The lunch combo also looked good & I really appreciated that they had several vegetarian options for guests. Love this place & highly recommend it for its cozy vibes & homemade food.View more
