    I booked for a group of 8 and it was a fantastic experience. The room was great, the scenery was beautiful and the staff went out of their way to make sure everyone had what they needed and enjoyed the occasion. I would recommend to anyone looking for a lovely afternoon high tea.

    We visited Rundle Bar for Afternoon Tea to celebrate a birthday at the end of May. It was a fantastic experience! Here are some key takeaways: - It was a little confusing to find at first, as when you arrive (at the second level), you have to walk into the restaurant, past the bar, to a hostess stand. It’s hard to see and while there were staff walking right by us, no one guided us through. - That being said, we are very grateful that staff took the time to read our notes that we were celebrating a birthday. The hostess said Happy Birthday and so did our server. Marco was fantastic as our server, going above and beyond, even offering to take photos of us without being asked. You must ask for him if you visit. Somebody give the man a raise! - For those wondering, the view alone is worth going for. 100%. - I will say that service did feel a little bit rushed - it could have been spread out a bit more so we could savour the experience. They definitely bring the food out very quickly! - While the sandwiches were alright (not exceptional), what you are paying for is the experience. Between the sparkling wine, the adorable tea timer, choosing from a variety of teas, and the bite size desserts, it makes for a one-of-kind experience in a historic hotel in Banff. Highly recommend!

    We came here several times during our stay. The drinks are exceptional and the pork belly was phenomenal. Rebekah went out of her way to help us with another restaurant reservation and was lovely. We also went for the high tea service. This was a wonderful experience and while we did not all of the food (personal preference) it was enjoyable. We were even given a complimentary glass of prosecco as we were celebrating our honeymoon. The service here is excellent and the best we had on our trip.

    The restaurant and views are wonderful. The food was “ok” for the price, particularly the sandwiches. The desserts are beautiful, they are like art. Our server, Jordan, was amazing!
