I recently had afternoon tea at Colonel Saab with my friend, and it was a lovely experience. The savory bites were packed with flavor, and the chai, brewed with aromatic spices, was the perfect addition!
The staff were super friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The atmosphere felt really warm and authentic.
This was a really thoughtful gift :)

The whole experience from booking to contacting Colonel Saab and experiencing the food and ambiance of the place all went really well. The lavish afternoon tea was lovely set in an amazing place. The food was just right with the option to order more if needed. The staff were helpful and ever so kind making sure our experience was enjoyable. The stairway to the washroom was magnificent with pictures taking you back. The decor and the artifacts were endless. Just wow ! A really beautiful place definitely worth experiencing.
