If any place in Calgary is qualified to embrace the time period of Downton Abbey, I pick the Fairmont Palliser. Since 1914, the Palliser has been Calgary’s luxury hotel, offering timeless elegant surroundings. Now, in celebration of the highly-anticipated Downton Abbey movie, the Palliser is pleased to serve you afternoon tea in the Hawthorn Dining Room.
“The Hawthorn Dining Room is committed to bringing exciting and unique culinary experiences to our guests, while partnering with local producers and small businesses. We are thrilled about the opportunity to elevate our existing afternoon tea. The release of the Downton Abbey movie couldn’t be more fitting,” says Ian Burns, General Manager of the Hawthorn Dining Room and Bar.
Enjoy treats from the savoury to the sweet. But don’t forget the scones and cream!
Every Saturday and Sunday from September 21 – October 27, 2019, you can experience a delightful tea, complete with delicious sandwiches and decadent pastries, in the sumptuous Hawthorn Dining Room. Indulge in a locally sourced menu while enjoying historic, luxurious surroundings and elevate your weekend. We enjoyed a relaxed and sophisticated atmosphere while sampling delicious treats.
