T-buds, Food Tea Lounge In Toronto

Have been wanting to try this cute little place for forever. Since I'd be in the vicinity today, I ordered the Afternoon Teabox a couple of days in advance (to go) which included 6 mini sandwiches, 2 scones with preserves, 2 petit four, small fruit cup, mini quiche, and the most delicious mango pineapple tea. From placing the order, to communicating the time of pick up and preference of payment everything went well. The server I interacted when i was picking up my order was extremely pleasant, and when I asked for a takeout cup of hot water for the tea she didn't hesitate and got it for me very fast. When I got to my destination, I opened up my lovely prepared box and indulged. Value was well worth it, and would love to come back another time and dine in.Vegetarian options: Assortment of vegetarian sandwiches, quiche.

What a lovely find!! Took my Mom and friend for Mom's high tea bday. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. Prices were great. The service was wonderful and they even brought mom a special birthday scone with sparkling tea for all of us. The staff were so kind and we will definitely return.

Delightful little place on Yonge Street near Lawrence Ave W. I would not recommend for those with mobility concerns as there are steep stairs to climb to get to the cozy tearoom. The soft jazz music playing in the background helped to create a relaxing atmosphere.Mom had the Spa Salad consisting of arugula, feta, and berries. The classic tea tray had an assortment of tasty sandwiches. If you don't have a sweet tooth, the preserve jam and the macaroons are sweet.Loved the selection of teas.

It's pleasant place to have a get together, staff were really sweet. The scones were delish with jam. Plenty of tea options

I would call this place adequate, nothing spectacular, but nothing overly disappointing.They have a large selection which is nice and is looseleaf. The appetizer had caramelized onions, goat cheese in a tart. They had fairly tasty and substantial sized sandwiches. The desserts were a bit unimpressive and feel as though they are from the grocery store. Was an overall nice experience, with friendly staff. Would come if I lived close by in the area.The only downside (which can count for alot) is the vibe. It is not fancy or special feeling. If you want something that feels like a special occasion or want to feel like you are somewhere in british english style or with fine china or dainty tea room... it is not for you. The environment is very lack luster and the bathroom feels like a gas station washroom. The food is great, but the vibes could be better.
