Everyone on the Zoe's team was wonderful. Our server, David, was exceptional. The food was great - our guest received extra deserts and a wonderfully subdued rendition of "Happy Birthday"! This was not our first visit and definitely not our last. Zoe's is the perfect place for special celebrations.

                                                          There were five of us ladies for the “high tea”. The server 107 was very, very nice, friendly and welcoming. She explained the tea menu in detail, etc. The selection of the sandwiches and sweets was not as good as I remember from years ago. There was no “wow” factor. I felt that beef sandwiche was rather ordinary as well as cucumber one plus the tiny carrot cake. I was looking for something more creamy and fruity. The tea I selected was good although I prefer mine a lot hotter. Mine, after 5 minutes brewing was not as hot as I like. Overall just nice but not very special for the amount charged.

                                                          Zoe’s is a lovely lounge area, bright, modern and light decor for afternoon tea , cocktails or dinner. Seated in a solarium style room we had a great of the senate/old train station. This last hotel renovation is very tasteful and contemporary. Comfortable seating and lovely service. My husband and I tried High tea for the first time and we now plan to try it again in other Canadian cities as well. Three-tiered serving tray was elegant with excellent variety of savouries and sweets. Very good selection of teas to choose from. 🙂
