The Savoy Room

Enjoyed a delightful afternoon tea celebrating the holidays! Ambiance, food, tea and service were outstanding. The tea room was beautifully decorated as well. Our experience was reminiscent of afternoon teas enjoyed in England throughout the years . . . 🎄

Met a girlfriend for the most amazing high tea experience. Service, food and ambiance was wonderful. When they say to bring containers/ziplock bag that is recommended. Also, they have a large selection of teas. We had a lovely time.

The decor is quite charming. very warm and cozy, with purposefully mismatched china sets. Service was kind. The tea set itself left a bit to be desired. The savory tier was the best one, consisting of small sandwiches and mini quiches. The egg, salmon and tuna salad sandwiches were nicely done. The salmon one was odd only because it was put in a dinner roll type thing and when we asked about it we were told it was a mini croissant, which it definitely was not anything close to other than shape. Cucumber sandwich was odd because they used raisin bread which completely overwhelmed the taste of cucumber and plain cream cheese and it wasn’t savory at all. The bite sized spinach and cheese quiches were cold and mostly crust that are reminiscent of grocery store tart crusts. Dessert tier honestly did not feel house made, if they were perhaps it was more of a homemade quality than I’m used to at afternoon tea. E.g. mostly cookies like Hershey kiss thumbprint cookies, chocolate crinkle cookies, and pieces of After Eight chocolate. The mini butter and coconut tarts use the same crust as the quiches. Scones were plain and raisin, and pretty unremarkable. Came with a small cluster of grapes though I would have preferred having a savory scone in its place instead. Overall not a bad experience but I feel there’s better value to be had elsewhere. it’s a good choice if you want something more homegrown and cozy.

We went for Mothers Day High Tea. They were short staffed making the service slow (tea took 30 minutes, the tray of selections almost an hour) we were not in a hurry, but the reason for the 4* Good selection of sweet and savoury. The clotted cream and fresh jam was a nice touch, but I didn’t find all of the treats the freshest, or they have a drier baking style. We were advised to bring take out containers and we did have items to take home. The portions were good. The plant for each mother was a nice touch.

Beautiful gem in St Catharines. The afternoon tea was excellent, great quality organic tea. The tea sandwiches, savoury and sweet treats were fantastic. The service is impeccable. Loved the tea room. We will definitely come back.
