  • We had such a lovely time at Country Road High Tea celebrating my birthday. The service was amazing, the setting is beautiful and the food is delicious. There was the perfect mix of sweet and savory food and a great range of teas to choose from. To top it off we had a nice glass of bubbles.

  • We recently visited Country Road High Tea for my mom’s birthday, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. The service was immaculate - attentive, friendly, and made the occasion feel extra special. Every bite was delicious, from the delicate finger sandwiches to the beautifully crafted pastries. The selection was well thought out, offering a great balance of sweet and savoury treats. The bubbles included in the package complemented everything perfectly, making the experience even more enjoyable. For the quality of food, presentation, and top-tier service, the price is more than worth it. If you’re looking for a high tea that truly delivers on elegance, taste, and experience, Country Road High Tea is the perfect choice. Highly recommend!

  • From the moment you turn down the drive, you know you are in for a wonderful experience at Country Road High Tea. The stunning setting in the country immediately sets the tone for what is to come. The barn was set up beautifully, blending chic and traditional elements perfectly—everything was on point. The staff were impeccable, attentive, and added such a warm touch to the experience. As for the food, it was next level—each bite was a delight. This experience was truly so much more than a five-star rating. I can’t recommend it enough!
