Best Afternoon Tea Restaurants in Marpole

We had afternoon tea in the dining room at Butchart Gardens on Family Day Monday and found the experience to be quite lovely. We were warmly greeted by the host who checked us in, took our coats and after a very short wait we were seated by our server at a wonderful table by a window looking out onto the garden. The room was bright, impeccably clean and had all the hushed serenity one would expect in the garden setting… I felt the music could have been a touch louder as it was barely audible and might have offered a bit of ambiance and privacy. Our server was friendly, very pleasant and she explained our tea options and guided us through the service. We opted for the « sparkling tea for two » which featured a half-bottle of BC sparkling wine, and we thought the wine added a bit of a celebratory note to our experience. The first course was a bright and light lemon trifle, and was followed by the three-tier tea sandwich and pastry tower and of course the loose-leaf tea ( the rose tea was amazing!) The tower looked elegant, and was very generously filled with fresh and delicious small bites. Some were served warm, others were chilled and all were distinctly flavoured and well balanced, perfect for pairing with the tea offerings. We found the whole experience to be absolutely wonderful and left feeling fully satiated and thoroughly satisfied.

Chic, charming, delicious and decadent. Neverland is a wonderful spot to have high tea with friends, family or on a date. It’s unique and special and makes you feel like you’re dining in London!

We had a cute girly “galentines” planned. We had dinner elsewhere and came here for dessert & drinks, and honestly, Jinny made our experience. She was so cute & sweet at the door! She showed us to our table but also highlighted the beautiful ambience on the way (and the best places to take photos). She checked on us and asked how our drinks were, and also recommended her fav (which my best friend had and loved). It was a beautiful space for a cute photo-worthy drink, and we’re really happy we came! Thank you, Jinny, for elevating our experience!!

Everything about our High tea at Tracy Cakes was perfect, food ,service ambiance. If you haven't already been for High tea ,I highly recommend you do.You won't be disappointed.

Highly recommend. Sweet and savoury food choices were all excellent (salmon croissant, salmon and advocado toast, and French toast), the hot chocolate with chantille cream was to die for! Lovely environment and servers were friendly and welcoming. Will be back for another lovely experience!
