Attributes

  • Buffet

Inspired by The Oyster Boxs original, architecture with four magnificent tole and ceramic chandeliers purchased from the Savoy Hotel in London, natural sunlight and towering Palms, The Palm Court is the venue for the legendary High Tea each afternoon. Its also a favourite meeting spot for casual dining.

High Tea is a lengthy, leisurely affair with live piano music providing a welcome addition to the occasion. All pastries and baked goods are prepared on the property by our wonderful pastry team. The high tea table is a visual and taste spectacle of sumptuous treats, with everything from freshly baked scones, pastries, quiches and cakes, to finger sandwiches and savouries.

    I like to celebrate special occasions at the High Tea and enjoy taking my family there over Christmas. I have found the variety of foods is not like it used to be. I especially miss the lovely health bread sandwiches they used to serve. The ambience was not great as we were stuck behind a pillar with a tiny table which had no space for a tea pot so I ended up only having coffee. The services this time was abysmal!!

    Service was severely lacking. Coffee/tea was only served well into the actual Tea! Seating is really in need of a make over. Most of the pastries and cakes were delicious. Vegan option was poor.

    We disappointed that our Pups food did not follow pet guidelines with regards to the preparation of the meal. The food had salt and sugar, in combination with that we waited a considerable time for our pup's food which was incorrect and subsequently corrected by food and beverage manager.

    The Easter High Tea was one of the best High Teas that i have ever enjoyed / experienced at the Oyster Box. All of their High Teas are outstanding of course, but this was simply amazing. As always, the service, the food, the atmosphere, the vibe is something you can never experience or duplicate at any other establishment. The Oyster Box is to put it simply THE BEST! will definitely go back time and time again :) THANK YOU FOR THE BEST TIME ALWAYS!
