The holidays are about to get a little sweeter at H Tasting Lounge inside The Westin Bayshore, Vancouver. From November 29 through December 28, the lounge’s Festive Afternoon Tea returns and it’s every bit as magical as you remember.
A Holiday Tradition Returns
Each weekend, guests are invited to step into a warm, glowing space filled with sparkling décor, soft carols, and the scent of freshly baked scones. The experience is designed to transport you straight into the heart of the holidays, whether you’re catching up with friends, creating new family traditions, or simply taking a break from the season’s hustle.
Served on a classic three-tier stand, this year’s tea service embraces the nostalgia of timeless holiday gatherings, complete with decadent sweets and savoury bites inspired by cherished seasonal flavours.
What to Expect
Think buttery scones, elegant finger sandwiches, and confections that look almost too beautiful to eat all crafted by HTL’s talented culinary and pastry team. Each menu item is created to evoke the warmth and indulgence of the holidays, pairing perfectly with premium seasonal infusions from O-Five Rare Tea.
Those looking to elevate their afternoon can toast the season with a Yuletide cocktail from the lounge’s curated Christmas drink menu, making it an ideal spot for festive get-togethers or pre-holiday celebrations.
