Tea at the St. James is fantastic.  The decor is unbelievable.  (I've had tea at the Queen Elizabeth hotel too, and it was OK, but served in the lobby, and I didn't give it high marks).\n\nMy wife and I had tea here, and although expensive - was up there on the scale of wow.  If you are in Montreal and you want to have a little romance with your significant other - grab tea at the St. James.  \n\nThey sat us at a window table with huge wingback chairs that dwarfed us.  Then they started with a glass of wine, and then began tea.  Tea here is very traditional, including sandwiches, scones, etc. and you get stuffed.  I know it sounds bit un-man-ly, but I love having tea ever since my wife gave up the secret of the food.\n\nIf you are going to do tea in Montreal and you want the total experience, this is the only place to go.  Suck it - Queen E!
