Festive High Tea 2023

Overview

If there's an occasion to celebrate, W Brisbane's resident bar wants in on the action, theming its high-tea spread around different times of the year. Now that the festive season is upon us, it's switching to an appropriately merry offering. If you like drinking Christmas-themed cocktails while tucking into tiny bites to eat, then add Living Room to your list.

On the menu for 2023's Festive High Tea: lamb croquettes with mint, confit garlic and rosemary; not only maple-glazed ham, but maple-glazed ham in a pinwheel paired with spinach and charred pineapple; eggnog and raspberry mousse cake; and pistachio and blood orange tarts.

That's an impressive, tastebud-tempting range; however, you'll probably get most excited about the boozy side of things — including a 'Merry and Bright' cocktail made especially for the high tea.

This feast will also get you building your own gingerbread house. 'Tis the season, after all. And, for non-alcoholic sips, endless tea and barista-made coffee come with the package.

Yes, it's time to chose your pals best in need of a Xmas treat, then make a date — this high tea is on offer from Thursday–Sunday until Sunday, December 31.

Price-wise, you have three options. Pay $79 each, and you'll feast your way through the food like you're Santa on Christmas Eve, and enjoy the tea and coffee. Opt for the $99 option to add a cocktail. For $105, you'll also get a glass of Veuve Clicquot champagne.
