Cute interior! However, there were four of us. We waited almost 50 mins for all of our dishes to come out. There was another table beside us that was waiting as long as we had, until they brought it to the servers attention. Waiting that long for food that was mediocre was not something worthwhile especially in a tourist attraction. Maybe going on a weekday would be better. Not sure if I any of us would go back read more

Hi Tea for my family on a special occasion was a complete disappointment added to which it was a 2 Hour drive from our home to the restaurant. There are NO positives that can be said about this experience. The food was minimal for a high price ($140 for a few tiny sandwiches, scones which were completely overcooked and had to be sent back and resulted in a long wait for a replacement, a few savoury things which were tiny and tiny little desserts only four little tiny ones. In fact , basically the food was tasteless in most cases and extremely expensive for what we got. The staff member was not attentive, the café is not clean and certainly not the charming Place I expected to be. I would avoid this location at all costs. read more

When a meal begins with a view of the toilet it's not going to turn out well. We were given a table upstairs at the back of the restaurant with what looked like a hospital screen next to us. It was to shield the bathrooms except the screen was short so we looked into the open bathroom door of the toilet. I ordered the roast beef open sandwich with a latte and my friend ordered the breakfast with eggs over easy with a cappuccino. The coffees arrived cold and we asked if we could have them hot. They were brought back after obviously placed in the microwave, the cups too hot to handle, the coffee burnt, my friend got mine and I got hers. What arrived next would have had Gordon Ramsay smash every dish in the restaurant. The roast beef sandwich arrived as a lump of charcoal mush with a crisp small piece of kale as the garnish that all it did was make the grey black mush look like a mass of grey worms. Tentatively, I took a bite and felt my insides turn over. The toast was soggy, and the meat tasted like it was roast beef cold cuts thrown in the microwave and dumped on the plate. It was dry, and tasted exactly as it looked. I sent it back and was relieved I had stopped earlier to buy a scone and ate that instead out of the paper bag. My friend's eggs arrived like two pieces of rubber off the wheels of a truck. She showed them to the waitress as they hung on the fork like leather strips. The waitress argued that they were cooked in oil. She offered to have them redone and what returned was the same. We could not get out of there fast enough. As for the service, it was as bad as the food. When we walked out, a woman was about to come in and asked if the food was good. I told her it was atrocious and not to set her foot in the place. She burst out laughing, thanked me and turned around. That's the only response this restaurant deserves. Do not enter. read more

Our group came here for their afternoon tea service. I've been to quite a lot of high teas and I believe Wild Tart has the largest portions (especially for the very reasonable price). Everything was served in towers of LARGE dinner plates (not the dainty small plates), and thus the food on them were not teeny bite-size. Be prepared for some super-sized finger sandwiches and very sweet desserts. The scones were our table's favourite. It was warm, fluffy, and the jams & cream paired so well. Each person gets a pot of tea. The earl grey is a classic and the verbena blue is fun especially when you watch the colour change with a squeeze of a lemon! They also sell 50g of their own teas for $15. Unfortunately, I do have to mention that they refused to honour their Yelp Check-in offer of a free brownie. read more

The Wild Tart is one of my favourite restaurants in Elora. The patio is so nice and they allow dogs on the patio. And the food is really tasty. I highly recommend doing the tea service. Also, all the staff are really lovely. I will definitely be back the next time I go to the Elora. read more

Love the fact that they did a pop-up tent for Summer/Covid. Made for a nice atmosphere to sit out and eat. The staff was friendly and the food was prepared quite quickly. They had some unique options on their menu and overall despite the proportions in my opinion being a little small for the price, the taste was pretty good. read more

(Late post) Spectacular cocktail and high tea food items! We visited in the end of August and sat on the patio - food was amazing... Possibily the most polished high tea I've had. Cocktail that came with the signature set was surprisingly delicious. Unfortunately we had to rush our meal to beat the swarm of 4-5 bees who kept coming back and sat on our desserts. Our server was apologetic and brought us napkins to cover our food (also offered the same to the other tables on the patio). It quickly became a weird meal where I could only see my girlfriend through the gap of the two tea sets because of the napkins draped over them. read more

tea, service and desserts were good. Breakfast was a bit disappointing....$22 for 1 piece of avocado toast with a poached egg...no side salad or anything. I was still hungry after and one shouldn't be when you spend $22! We should have just ordered the high tea! read more

Love Love Love the ambiance of this place! Clean & Friendly Staff with amazing brunch/light fayre and dessert menu! A must-go if you're visiting Elora for a, day trip or a weekend get-away! Make sure you make a reservation in advance before you plan your visit here! Most shops are opened until 5pm or 6pm here, but restaurants and cafes are usually opened a little later, but if you're from out of town, then I'd suggest dining here "after" you've done your scenic walks earlier throughout and enjoy a nice meal here as a reward! Their lemon meringue was amazing and their patio was very private, which we enjoyed a lot without a huge crowd! read more

The ambience is very good and the service was excellent. We ordered the afternoon tea; I found the sandwiches were a bit salty and the scones were too doughy for my taste. read more

My doctor told me about this place after I told her I'm going to Elora. So this has been on my 'favorite' as a reminder. Finally, the day come to try this place. It was lovely food,service, and place! We ordered ham with quail terrine and spice apple chutney, and classic (sweet) tea set. After waiting for (not sure how long), the attendant informed us that it will take bit longer because the chef is making new batch. We were not 'hangry', so we dont mind the waiting. Turn out they came back and gave us complementary gazpacho (husband love it and eat my portion too). How thoughtful! Then the food came. The ham sandwich is sooooo good. The melted cheese on top of the bread, the terrine sauce and ham, and the spice apple chutney on the side , all is well balanced. I put the chutney like a jam (put it little bit on the sandwich, then i savour it slowly and passionly). It also come with green leafies salad (which I didn't expect, but it's nice to eat well-balanced food anyway). The tea set came with 2 bread (and 3 different 'sauce' on side), 4 mini sandwich (cucumber, smoke salmon, egg, ham), 4 dessert. All is very delish!!! Soft, tender, light, fluffy....nothing too strong/overpowering/heavy. Dessert is a very nice ending! I wish i can order more dessert to take home, but worry that it will get ruined after 2hours drive home. The garden patio is lovely and I could imagine it is pretty at night. French music is also playing in background. Overall is a beautiful experience. Highly recommended! Make sure to make reservation to avoid the wait. read more

Came to Elora and couldn't leave without trying some delicious high tea. We were not disappointed despite them running out of savoury bites by 4pm. They substituted it nicely with other savoury eats. We shared one signature tower for two people because we were restaurant hopping. Otherwise, we would have each gotten our own. But even then, we were a quite satisfied. We got the Niagara tea and it paired perfectly with our food. The Prosecco was strong and made us very bubbly. The service was great and eating in the patio is always lovely. The inside decor is just as nice. Would highly recommend to come here and I can't wait to come back!!!!!! read more

We went here for lunch and I was so torn. The menu has so many delicious sounding things. We finally decided on the charcuterie board and it was so good. Next time I go, I am going to try one of the high teas, as they looked delicious! The service is fantastic here and the restaurant is cute. read more

i have tried and won't be back, service was slow, food 7 out of 10, and expensive. The sandwiches were dry, the scones and pastries were tasty. The set could use some fruits. read more

What a perfect lunch. From the greeting from James, our host, to the ambiance and finally the food (lunch; salmon gravlax open faced sandwich and roast beef open faced sandwich), it was a perfect lunch. Lots of tea and dessert options. Highly recommend read more

This place is the real deal. We heard about it through word of mouth, and ordered the Classic Afternoon Tea x2 (see picture). Ambience: 5/5 Beautiful interior - we loved the blue of the seats, and the artful furniture. The patio seating was also very excellent - the surrounding view reminded us of a villa in Italy (old stone walls, lots of trees, etc.) Food: 5/5 Wow. The pastries and cakes were simply on point - they were flavourful and rich, yet delicately done (everything felt complimentary, with no single taste overpowering) and simply beautifully constructed. My personal favourites were the Almond Financier, as well as the cheese scone with garlic butter. This place easily had one of the best pastries/cakes I've ever had at any high tea experience. Service: 5/5 Great service, polite and courteous. One of the owners was also serving food, and took some time to chat with us and tell us a bit about the history of the place. Overall, this is 100% a must-go if you enjoy pastries, cakes, and high tea. We will most definitely be returning to try out more of their menu. read more

Finally got a chance to stop by the Wild Tart after seeing their amazing reviews. We bought the Lemon Meringue pie, Raspberry mousse cake, and passionfruit tartelette. The owner was exceptionally kind and went out of his way to give us a complimentary croissant. :) Each piece was spectacular in taste and I couldn't help but finish everything. Thank you for the great service and delightful treats. I will definitely be back again! read more

The high tea options are a different experience for sure, but I cant say the food was great by any standards. The desert in the high tea was subpar to say the least. The servers were so slow to take the order plus she gave us the wrong wifi password 3 times and then showed us attitude. Every table asked for wifi cause you don't get great network in their patio read more

Another outstanding lunch in Elora at The Wild Tart. The food is truly delicious and the service reminds me of the very best of 5 * European hotels. Absolute perfection. The indoors is beautifully done with mid century modern seating and delightful antique tables sprinkled about. Make your reservation and slip into a luxurious afternoon. read more

Was in the area of Elora and came into this small restaurant. Got the open sandwich with smoked salmon and dill cream cheese (forgot the actual name for it) and was not disappointed. Great ambiance and atmosphere. Great cute place for brunch. They also had high tea, but the sandwiches and French toast (what the others at the table got) here was great. Service was a little slow (probably because of COVID) and limited waiters, but overall great experience. Great price for such a fancy place; I know other places would charge a lot more for the same dishes. Would come again for just sandwich. read more

I had afternoon tea here with a small group of friends, and while the food was good the service was lacking. When we originally asked for one signature afternoon tea to share amongst the four of us our waiter rather condescendingly told us it was only meant for one person and would come back when we had decided on more food to order, making it seem as though ordering only one was not an option. We were given our afternoon tea food without our tea, and were only given our two pots of tea 10 minutes before we were ready to leave. Our server did not come by to check on our table once throughout our meal, however was very attentive to the tables around us, seemingly avoiding our table altogether. The manager however, was very pleasant with any questions and concerns we had, which was reassuring. One of our tea cups was dirty and filled with soup remnants when it was flipped over. Overall, very disappointed with the service, will not be returning. read more
