Surrealistic ideas, very creative and artistic vibe.Its like dreams and nightmares, all is a thought behind it ...I love everything including desserts, snacks, coffee and herbal drinks ...I believe its not at all expensive for what I've got from there.Loved it. Thank you

They have a great selection of pastries. Both the ones I tried were well balanced and had very careful attention to detail. The decor was unique too and it feels like you're not in Vancouver. This isn't your typical cafe so don't expect something like Starbucks or Blenz... Definitely will be back!

I would definitely recommend this beautiful and unique place. The workers give fantastic and personality-filled service and the tea is gorgeous.I definitely will return to enthusiastically try some of their pastries, but by god, I will never again get the High Tea. It was a feat of strength that I made it through.Honestly, and I hate that I feel this way, it was the worst meal I've ever eaten. It's not a quality issue, but palate explored repulsed me. I was dry heaving, and my best friend was unable to eat anything bar three of the desserts. I ended up eating hers because I really didn't want to hurt the lovely waitress's or chef's feelings. They were -that- nice.But good God. The savory options just destroyed me.The smoked tuna crepe was mayo-laiden, and the coldness of the crepe was offsetting, like eating cold rubbery egg whites. The palate was milky, kind of sweet. The whole thing had a mushy, rotten bite to it. Like a forgotten lunch, eaten out of desperation the next day.The Italian proscuitto roll surprised me. I love all the ingredients listed and yet it was my first dry heave. It was partly the palate (Sweet? Gamey?) but mostly the textures. A sticky outside topped with mush paté, filled with chunky and slippery onion jam on a powdery, grainy cake. Nothing worked together in flavour or texture.The first two savory items tasted like leftovers grabbed from pieces left in a sink. Waterlogged, mushy, losing their flavours and taking on the wetness of other dishes around them.The cauliflower truffle soup was fine. I had no strong feelings one way or the other, beyond wishing I'd saved it to wash down the other bites.The egg salad charcoal cracker was the worst thing I've ever eaten, but where as the previous two were just horrible and confusing to me, this is purely just about my palate. Caviar is repulsive to me, and apparently mixed with quail eggs it's much, much worse. I can see my caviar-loving boyfriend LOVING that offering, though, so I think this was purely about my preference.The pesto scone was the ship we both clung to to wash down the others with its strong but pleasant flavour. It was only in the last bite realised I didn't actually like it, it was just the only thing that had a cohesive palate and texture to me, bar the almond cookie which was.. an almond cookie. Nothing to note on that.The parsnip cake was a cake made out of a noticable root vegetable. It wasn't good in any way, but it also wasn't offensive and I appreciated it. It was creative, and more in line with what I was expecting - unusual and creative, which is what draws me to high tea and general tasting menus. I don't have to like it to enjoy it, I am looking to see an artful creation.I felt the same for the chocolate ganache tart, and this was the only item I actually enjoyed. Lapsang is not my thing, a tea I avoid very adamantly, but the way they balanced it against the rich chocolate was fantastic. It was an unusual flavour that felt intentional and I really appreciated it.So. I really, really hated their high tea. It was really, really not for me. But in saying that, we also turned to each other to exclaim we were excited to come back. The teas were lovely, the service was fantastic, the setting was spectacular, and everything offered at their counter looked amazing. Hopefully the strength of our conviction to return really speaks to how great I found every thing but the high tea itself.

The wait staff were awesome and the entire experience makes you feel happy. Make sure to pop into the loos...even if you don't need to!

It was our first time..we had a $20 gift card and still paid $33 more...a total of $53 plus tips, but totally disappointed with the kind of food they served..other than a little bit gross, the amount of serving was too little...the drinks were ok, but overall we were dissatisfied...not again! first and last!

The ambience and decor is what made the experience good. The food was ok but I found a lot of the items was too overly done and too many flavours. Simple would have been better. The bathrooms were also amazing too.

Such a unique place! Love the design and the fancy desserts. A must-see for tourists.

Pros:A very cool place with designer armchairs called monster chair. Cool environment. Even toilets are designed differently.Cons:-Everything is overpriced compared with what you get.-service is nothing special and even lower than many other cafes.-quality is average and for coffee it’s even below the average.
The decor is obviously pretty cool, they spared no expense, every piece of furniture, every item they have is unique and it has a fun ambiance to the place. That’s what the 3 stars is for because it is unique. Other than the look of it, I wasn’t impressed. The prices are high and while there was a good menu selection for juices ($12 each) all but one was sold out. I got a matchamisu, the flavour was dull and the cake part was soggy. It was also quite small for the price ($7). It was nice to go there once but I probably won’t go back.

Very fun experience! The service was attentive. One of my friends arrived about 20 minutes late due to the weather condition and they were very kind to extend our tea time an extra 30-45 minutes beyond our 2 hour limit. They didn't have to do that! And we appreciated it.The food that comes with the afternoon tea was unique and unconventional, much like its decor. I only take 1 star out because it is not as filling as other afternoon teas I have experienced with a similar price (though who is having tea as a meal?) and also the teas they had did not really hit the spot. They seemed under-stepped initially, but it turns out the leaves are just not very strong?Overall, fun experience with nice service. I would recommend it to friends who enjoy something unique in town. :)

The food was really good and the coffe could be a little bit tastier and less generic (Local coffee shops are crafter better, tastier, etc.) The environment is super cool, tho. I would come back, for sure.

I really really wanted to love this place. It's super cute and the food was really fancy. I did the afternoon tea and everything was delicious, service was good. The only reason it's 4 instead of 5 is the cost. It's quite expensive for how little you get. Didn't even have scones, which IMO are a high tea must. It's definitely worth trying, if even just for all the adorable pictures, plus the food is great. Likely won't be back though.

Neat place to spend time with special people... who enjoy things a little different. We enjoyed the design of the space, both coffee and tea are reasonable priced for Robson area and the girl that served us is attentive and friendly. They are still relatively new (only only 3 weeks as I am writing this), so the workflow isnt quite efficiently in place but their friendliness attitude makes up with it. Will definitely go back soon... and dress up for the occasion.
