    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had the pleasure of enjoying the high tea experience at Lily & Elise’s Tea House, and it was absolutely delightful! The selection of finger sandwiches was perfectly curated—each bite of the egg salad, caprese, and tomato sandwiches was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The tea selection was equally impressive. I savored the Gentle Mint, Key West, and Blue Oolong teas, each offering its own unique and soothing flavor profile. The staff was warm and attentive, ensuring everything was perfect from start to finish. The ambiance was charming and elegant, making it the ideal spot to unwind and indulge in a truly refined tea experience. I can’t wait to return!

    We shared the beet salad, the baked Brie and each ordered the steelhead trout. It was all very good and we are planning to return for brunch in the near future. The service was impeccable and we both enjoyed our time at Bar Pigalle.

    Decided to stop in and get a drink today, staff was so friendly. I wanted to warm up from the snow and the bartender made me a Spanish coffee which was great. Also was greeted by a pleasant smell, pristine restaurant and I love stopping by here.

    We had an outstanding experience. We arrived early and the gracious Manger unlocked the door to let us wait inside out of the bitter cold. Service was timely and very polite. Food was absolutely amazing, we will definitely be bringing our friends back to experience this amazing place.
