This place combines jewelery shopping and Tea at the same time. Honestly, what more could a girl ask for?
Well, I have to admit most of my friends I dragged here - were a bit taken aback that I said I needed to go to Birks to buy Macrons - because I missed visiting the year before. The place isn't big and the cafe is located on the mezzanine of the jewelery store - so in order to get to the cafe you would have to pass the counters to walk up the short flight of stairs to get there - which if you think about it give you a chance to browse for anything you "might" want to put on a wish list for some future date.
Price wise the Macrons were pretty good - worth a visit and they held up well - all things considering since i didn't even get around to eating the second box until a week later.
Favorite flavors - definitely the pear and the cassis
Side note for the guys : it's not exactly a bad place for a romantic afternoon tea date either since it combines a girl's love of pretty and sweet things all in one pretty package.
