1. The Watering Can

The Watering Can in Vineland offers a spectacular afternoon tea. Nestled amongst a lush tropical setting, it’s aptly named their Tropical Garden Tea. Their enchanting afternoon tea experience combines creativity and plants with whimsical mismatched furniture and china teacups and saucers!

The baked goods and savoury treats are delicious. We ended up taking ours home because there was so much food! You can also get a refill on your tea.

There are seasonal and themed afternoon teas periodically throughout the year. We loved the Winter Garden Experience during the holidays.

2. Prince of Wales

If you want to feel like royalty when you’re enjoying your afternoon tea, the Prince of Wales is a perfect luxurious option. Set on historic Queen Street in Niagara-on-the-Lake, this afternoon tea is set in their heritage Drawing Room.

With crisp white linens and a light and airy setting with ornate and antique decor, this is one of my favourite places to go. Gorgeous pastries, finger sandwiches, scones and decadent tea make for a sumptuous experience, and you can add a glass of champagne if you wish (we certainly did)!

It’s the perfect space for celebrations, bridal showers, mother-daughter getaways, or just because!

There are a few different afternoon tea packages available to pick from, including the His Royal Highness tea which includes charcuterie, cheese, and scotch.

Price: From $55/person (or $26/children under 12)
