Mary's Scrumptious Gin High Tea

Overview

Mary Eats Cake celebrates the timeless tradition of pairing a nice cuppa with some delicious small bites, calling it a "high tea" and making you feel just that little bit fancy. With two teahouses — one in Brunswick and one in Montrose — Mary has hosted countless high teas, and now she's upping the ante by serving them alongside plenty of gin.

Running on six Friday nights between August 23 and October 4, the gin-fuelled high teas will be hosted in collaboration with a range of Aussie distillers, including Anther, Tiny Bar and Brogan's Way. They're happening at the Brunswick venue, over a three-hour period between 6–9pm.

The Scrumptious Gin High Tea will set you back $79 a head, and $84 if you have dietary requirements (with Mary's catering for vegetarian, vegans, gluten-free, gluten-free and vegan, halal, nut-free and pregnant women). Your indulgent night out includes  a gin and tonic on arrival, a full High Tea menu of sweet and savoury treats matched to two more gin cocktails, and teas designed by a tea sommelier. And, in perhaps the most important news, you'll also have access to unlimited scones.
