Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Distillery District

The Nutcracker Tea is a lovely event for Christmas time. This is just a personal preference, but I prefer more savory and less sweets. It was a 50/50 ratio. Otherwise a lovely afternoon!

It was a lovely way to spend a Christmas afternoon! Decadent and delicious!

There were three of us for the Festive Tea at Clockwork. It was a wonderful experience! The staff was very attentive, and the food and tea were delightful. As I have food allergies, special precautions were taken by the staff to negate cross-contamination of any allergens. This was smoothly done because of a note when arranging our reservation. Clockwork called the week prior to the reservation to confirm, and I appreciated that very much. The beautiful decorations, wonderful atmosphere and service, made this a special Seasonal Treat that we hope to continue to make a part of our holiday celebrations in the future.

Valet parking attendant, Dave, had an excellent service and friendly. Dave parked my vehicle and retrieve vehicles in a safe and efficient manner. He provided directions to Victoria Cafe per my request. When I was in my vehicle on my way leaving, I saw that Dave was checking other valet parked vehicles as part of his duty. I said Merry Christmas and he said the same back to me. Our server, BishwarupD, was excellent and helped us during the time of Afternoon Tea. BishwarupD always had a smile on his face, knows the menu, paid attention and care about our needs and wants, a good listener, checked back regularly to make sure all needs are being met.

We thoroughly enjoyed the St-Regis’ high tea in the Astor lounge lobby bar. The food , service and ambiance were all 5*. Afterwords, we made our way up to the top floor and ended the evening at Louis Louix where high standards and style continued at this landmark restaurant bar.
