Driven by the spirit of the Irish Playwright, our bar pays homage to his genuinely prolific story. Oscar Wilde turns the Victorian Era on its head. Without relinquishing any of its glamour. Just like Wilde himself, we believe life should be lived to its fullest, with a touch of sophisticated debauchery. Why miss out on the fun?

    I took my daughter to The Palm Court at The Plaza for Afternoon Tea for her 12th birthday (first time for both of us) and we had an absolutely wonderful time. We both had the “Central Park” and we loved it. The ambiance, service, attentiveness to my daughter’s peanut allergy…EVERYTHING was just perfect. Special thanks to Vincent and Mary and everyone who stopped by to wish my daughter a Happy Birthday. It was a truly memorable day and we can’t wait to visit again!

    Tasty sandwiches arranged in an artisan display. Now a large selection of tea but it was hot and properly brewed. The service was outstanding. Cute cafe. A little pricey at $70 per person. Recommend the hot chocolate too!
