    Our servers, Nicholas and Nicole, were absolutely wonderful and did lots to make the experience extra special. Nicole has been my server for afternoon tea before and she truly has a gift. Nicholas is a super attentive and promising hospitality up and comer. We will be back. I honestly think the Zoe’s afternoon tea room is the most beautiful space in Canada.

    Went for High Tea. Was possibly served spoiled food. Chocolate brownies had a tea in them that the taste indicated it was spoiled and was so bad it over shadowed everything. HOJICHA CHOUX CAKE - tasted like Fish Brownies. Seafood flavour indicated the Hojicha was spoiled. Staff said they had similar comments the day before. Team offered to replace with a different desert but it was one of the worst things we ever tasted and nocked our taste buds down. Usually a nothing burger but for a $200+ experience no effort made to make it right cost wise left a second bad taste. Big fans of Fairmount and the Chateau, so this was a weird fumble.
