Adorable little place with delicious food. We got the afternoon tea service, which came with a scone, 3 tea sandwiches, 2 phyllo cups & an assortment of desserts each. The food was very well made & the tea selection was amazing. The scones were particularly amazing, soft & moist.
Afternoon tea is only served after 12h30, so make sure to make a reservation since it is quite small.View more
J'y suis allée avec mon fils & ma mère pour le thé & goûté, une expérience à refaire, le service parfait, les scones absolument délicieux, les sandwiches desserts tout autant. Le prix très abordable. Je vous le conseilleView more
My friends introduced me to this place, & told me they have some of the best house-baked scones in Montreal. I agree 100% with them. Top selection of teas, delicious desserts, superb service. We had a lovely meal at the Gryphon D'Or Tea Room & I will definitely come back.View more
Last time I remember having tea & dessert that was as tasty as my home baking was in a tea shop in Charlottetown in 1986... Gryphon D'Or is a pleasant surprise! We will be happy to return, thank-you.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
If I could give this place 1,000 stars, I would!! We did the afternoon tea, & in particular, drooled over every dessert, which were all melt-in-your-mouth good. I could eat those brownies every day. I also love that they bring you samples of the tea to smell before you pick - & they had a great selection. Best of all, the people were absolutely lovely. We felt right at home. Don't miss this spot!!View more
What a beautiful, friendly, & delightful place to eat! The staff were so accommodating to my family, including my children, & genuinely care about your experience. Everything tasted wonderful, the sandwiches, soup, salad, scones with different toppings, & dessert. You may need a reservation to eat but it is truly a must see experience.View more
Simply wow, definitely on the "must come back" list. The meatloaf scone was delicious & same for the beef & barley soup, finishing with the desserts that were amazing & all of it for such a great price.View more
What a gem! We had such a great experience; fantastic service, wonderful friendly staff, excellent food all prepared fresh. Homemade jams, hot fresh baked scones, exquisitely prepared desserts, we can't say enough about the place! The owner even came out to greet us & was just a pleasure to speak with as she shared her passion for the food & for our common love for musical theatre (as the played show tunes once the afternoon tea was wrapping up! 🥰). We are now officially hooked & look forward to going back soon! ♥️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
Long review ahead, but TLDR; this is a fantastic place for scones, lunch, afternoon tea, a date, a catch-up with friends, or a nice solo-date. Scones 11/10 with the best spreads & mixed teas. Photos ft Afternoon Tea with scones (new jam & plating), English breakfast tea mixed with a berry tea, & afternoon tea with yummy sandwiches & an assortment of desserts! We moved tables after a big group came, but it was fine! Long review: Absolutely LOVE this place. I've been going since 2019 & will always keep coming back. My first impression in 2019 was how warm & homey the place felt. Ciaran, the guy working the floor & the register at the time, was such a lovely presence, & always offered an extra scone after I had excitedly finished my first two haha. BEST SCONES, hands down. After the early years of the pandemic, I stopped seeing Ciaran there, & instead met Kate & Donna! I hope I'm getting the names right. Donna is a star & approached my partner & I when we were speaking, maybe a little too loudly haha, about wanting to recreate their lemon curd at home! She told us all that was in it without sharing secrets, & it was just so lovely. Again, I feel so at home with how friendly & casual the staff is :) Kate is ever lovely & brings an extra spot of brightness! I often overhear her speaking with the elderly customers, calling them by their first names, & really bringing that hospitality & personal touch. Most recently, she handled my booking through Google actually! When we got there, there was a mixup with the booking, with her knowing we had reserved, but we weren't in the system. Despite this, we did some Tetris with the tables, & it all worked out! Should have been stressful, but she made it lovely for my last litte date with my partner before I traveled to Asia for a few months without him! All in all, lovely place. Great food with a limited & rotating menu, great service, super cute interior design, jams & food available to go or for purchase, & an always fun afternoon tea session. Smoked salmon appetizer is fantastic. Mix the sweet cream & caramel, sweet cream & lemon curd, & be sure to ask for more! I preferred the peach whisky jam over the new spiced one, but the new triple berry jam is great! I'll be back when I'm back from Asia, & I'll bring my family 🥰View more
My friend & I came for lunch on a weekday & loved our sconewitches (pictured) with a side of salad & soup all made fresh & in-house. There were options for both meat eaters & vegetarians, but less so for vegans, as many ingredients contained dairy. For dessert, we had bite-sized shortbread cookies, butter tarts, & carrot cake - all incredibly delicious. Our meal also came with a pot of tea which we were allowed to sample & switch, should we have felt inclined to. Thank you for the wonderful experience, we certainly plan on returning ! Note: They only accept Cash or Interac E-transfer & reservations are required as there is very limited seating.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
Had Afternoon High Tea at Gryphon d'or. Felt relaxed & enjoyed every minute.
What a selection of tea - I had the Ginger Marmalade which was perfect. The two warm fluffy scones served with jam, cream, marmalade, caramel, butter, & lemon curd were sooo good! Then smoked salmon pinklets, cucumber & egg heart-shaped two-tone sandwiches followed by dessert - lemon squares, short bread cookies, strawberry shortcake in a shot glass, rich chocolate cheesecake .
I will definitely return to this little gem!
