Autumn arrives at Paparmane with Flavours of Fall, a warm and generous afternoon tea served in our Old Montreal tea room from September 9 to November 15, celebrating one of our favourite seasons.
Our chef and co-owner Yoann Bouyer draws on the season’s harvest to create a menu full of contrasts: apples, squash, pecans, spices and seasonal berries come together in bites that are sometimes indulgent, sometimes delicate, and always surprising.
Surrounded by the vibrant colours of fall, slow down for a cup of tea, a few sweet and savoury bites, and a moment to share.
From October 21 to November 1, Paparmane takes on the eerie charm of a haunted house as our now-famous Halloween décor returns. For the occasion, Flavours of Fall gets a wicked makeover: an enchanted tasting filled with deliciously spooky surprises and a few delightful chills.
Autumn is fleeting. Let’s savour it.
Step inside to discover a whimsical, modern twist on traditional English high tea. We honour the classic ritual of beautifully crafted tiered platters and premium loose-leaf teas, but replace the stuffiness with bright flavours, colourful aesthetics, and a warm, festive spirit.
The Paparmane high tea experience can now be enjoyed anywhere: at home, at the office, or on a picnic blanket. Our sweet treats and savoury bites are thoughtfully packed into a refined box with everything you need to recreate a traditional tea time… wherever you may be.
The more the merrier! Book your Tea Time to celebrate a birthday for ages 7 to 107, a bachelorette party, a baby shower, an office outing, or any other special occasion, and let us take care of the rest.
To enjoy your favourite loose-leaf teas in the comfort of your own home or to spoil your loved ones, discover our curated selection at the Paparmane boutique. We also offer gift certificates, available in-store or online, to give a little happiness to those you love.
While we always welcome walk-ins when space allows, we highly recommend making a reservation. Booking ahead ensures your table is ready and is required so our chef can customize your tiered platter for any dietary restrictions. Please notify us if you are running late; if we cannot reach you, we reserve the right to give the table away.
Our signature high tea experience is $57 per person, and our children’s menu is $25. You can also elevate your visit by choosing the Heure du thé Royale, which includes a 200ml mini bottle of champagne.
Your afternoon tea is presented on a beautiful traditional tiered platter designed for one person (we do not offer shared platters). You’ll start with savory finger sandwiches and canapés, move to warm scones with cream and jam, and finish with delicate, handcrafted pastries. This is all accompanied by your choice of over 25 premium teas and tisanes.
Yes, we offer vegetarian, vegan (dairy-free), and gluten-free options, but they must be reserved at least 24 hours in advance. Please note: Our gluten-free menu is for dietary preferences, not severe celiac allergies, due to cross-contamination risks in our kitchen. Our vegan option contains nuts and is not suitable for nut allergies. We can also adapt platters for diabetics by swapping sweet bites for savory ones if mentioned at booking!
Absolutely! Families are welcome, and we offer a special “Petits trésors” menu for children 12 and under ($25). Please mention children and strollers when booking so we can accommodate you in our intimate space. Note: To preserve the calm atmosphere, we do not host organized children’s birthday parties.
Tables are reserved for a maximum of 2 hours, which gives you plenty of time, as the typical afternoon tea experience lasts about 1 hour and 30 to 45 minutes.
