High Tea for 5 (à 7)
451 Rue Rachel E, Montréal, QC H2J 2H2
An event celebrating the launch of Mayfair‘s spring cocktail menu gave us a glimpse into a typical and quite posh 5 à 7 at the tea room-inspired bar.
Everything about the space speaks to the British theme from the detailed floors and mouldings, to the teapots and tea cups used to serve cocktails!
All of the cocktails on the menu incorporate Kusmi tea, and small bites arrive on a three-tiered high-tea-style platter- once again lending to the tearoom feel. We ordered the salmon tartare, naan bread with tikka masala, crostini with truffle and mushrooms, and sliders along with a few of their spring cocktails. My favourite was the Green Velvet, which was light, refreshing, and not too sweet.
The 5 à 7 experience could only be described as lovely. I have never been to Mayfair on a Saturday night, but I imagine that the experience is a completely different one (5 à 7s are more my speed!). So go ahead, sip on some cocktails and enjoy some bites any evening from Wed – Sat. Happy drinking! Cheers, mate!
Never miss a post again!
