    A lovely large restaurant in the hotel. We love that atmosphere is quiet & you can talk & hear each other. Food is well prepared & excellent. Wine is pricey. It may be a conservative place but a pleasure to go there

    It is wonderful. Love the music during Saturday brunch. That French toast crème brûlée is amazing. I come here once a year for my birthday.

    We enjoyed the Afternoon Tea experience, especially the thoughtfully curated five-course tea pairing menu. Each pairing was beautifully designed, with well-balanced flavours that complemented one another without overpowering each other. Every bite offered a delicate yet distinctive pop of flavour, making the experience truly delightful. The Asian inspired touches were a lovely addition, executed with both creativity and artistry. Since the pairings featured only Sloane Tea, it would be wonderful to see other Canadian tea brands incorporated into the menu in the future, offering guests an opportunity to explore an even wider variety of teas.
