PLACE DUFFERIN

We were so lucky to be able to get a table for high tea at this lovely location! There was a cancelation, and Miguel was able to give us a table in the room overlooking the terrace. There was a wonderful pianist with live music. The tasty bites on all of the courses were delectable! I had the cream Earl gray tea, which is a specialty of the restaurant. I wasn't sure when our waitress said there were hints of maple also in the flavor. It turned out to be so creamy and delicious! I ended up buying some at the store in the hotel. Our waitress was so personable and took time to talk with us and tell us about life in Quebec. This was a not to be missed experience!

Beautiful afternoon tea with a delicious selection of pastries and a wide variety of tea. Atmosphere was calm with a lovely piano player offering background music.

Dec2024 Indoor terrace restaurant of the Fairmont Quebec nestled atop a prominent hillside of the city. This resto is where guests would be having their morning dinners. Holiday season was busy and bustling as guests came in droves and queues arw much the norm. The food is basic Western European style with a slant to some Canadian fare such as their ham and meat pie. They also offer some in house honey and jams. For a buffet it is standard. It is really the service that is the stat of the place. Quick, efficient and friendly, the servers are very able to handle the large crowds who gather each day to dine here. The receptionists are to be commended for their poise in managing the queues. The atmosphere is a 5 IF you find yourself in the terrace area near the windows which give you a wonderful view. Inside the interiors are understandably dated due to all the foot traffic. A good way to start the day's walking im Quebec City.

Afternoon tea with 6 of us was a highlight of our short time in Quebec City. All details were excellent from the china, tea selections, savory and sweet delicacies and very good service.

Fabulous place, but the afternoon tea itself was a letdown. The sandwiches and the cakes are very small. The Scones are alright, but the accompanying jam and the cream were very runny, unlike the British ones. The staff are attentive and friendly, but they don't really serve you much. The interior is nice and the atmosphere was great. They need to learn a lot from the traditional English afternoon tea venues in England.

Consistently amazing breakfast experience with lots of delicious options... attentive and excellent staff as always...highly recommended...

Afternoon tea at Place Dufferin was a little disappointing. They didn't serve clotted cream for the scones but something quite runny. My child has food allergies which they did a great job to accommodate! There was four of us for the tea. They brought over a 3-tier of allergy safe foods for two instead of for one, while the second 3- tier served two from the normal menu. It should have been one allergy meal and three normal menu. Good selection of tea choices. We really enjoyed the live music from the pianist. She was very good with song requests and just a delightful person!

A good buffet breakfast if you are staying at the hotel. The hostess will let you sit where you want when you say you will pick your own seat. Good food. Good service.
