The Best Spots for High Tea in Toronto

How better to embark on a much-needed self-care day than to don your best set of pearls or ascot and drink artisanal teas out of fine china. Traditionally served as a way to combat mid-day hunger pains, high-tea has now become a popular choice with event planners for bridal showers, birthdays and Mother's Day.

While it might seem like a one-size-fits-all experience, there are several different options in Toronto to choose from depending on setting and price point. Feeling colourful and fun? Ladurèe Cafe in Yorkdale Shopping Centre is a pastel lover's dream, complete with a high tower of delectable macarons and pastries. Or perhaps you're looking for something quaint and personal, where you can stock up on homemade jams and vintage teacups? Family-owned shop Kitten and the Bear re-located their original Parkdale shop to Dundas West in 2019 in a bright new space with cozy farmhouse vibes.

In true Toronto fashion, there's always going to be many options for whatever your tastes may be. Here is a list of some of our favourite, most debonair choices for high-tea.
