The Bayside patisserie is the ultimate destination for High Teas in Melbourne
Dzert in Sandringham is quickly becoming known as a destination for one of the best high teas in Melbourne and, due to demand, the patisserie has now added additional sessions through the week and is introducing a monthly themed high tea. High Teas are back on trend (if they ever left!).
New high tea sessions include a Breakfast High Tea Wednesday – Sunday 10am-11.30am and the Signature High Tea Wednesday – Friday 1pm-2.30pm & Saturdays 12.30pm-2pm and 3.30pm-5pm, adding to the existing two Sunday sessions.
Up to 50 guests are seated in luxurious emerald green velvet chairs at tables dressed in white linen with crystalware, porcelain teacups and silver cutlery, before being served a custom tiered High Tea stand filled with delicious bites, with every item, including the jam, made in-house.
The Bayside location means Dzert is an ideal alternative to CBD options and it’s the perfect excuse for a beachside visit, or a pit-stop between the city and the Mornington Peninsula.
The delectable menu offers four savouries and three sweets for Breakfast High Tea, and five savouries and four sweets in the Signature High Tea. Of course, both also serve up scones with jam and cream. Both options offer three packages:
- Classic, with free flowing barista-made coffee and specialty teas, $60pp / $75pp
- Sparkling, with the addition of a glass of sparkling wine on arrival, $70pp / $85pp
- Bottomless, with bottomless Mimosas for Breakfast and house sparkling and wine for Signature $85pp / $115pp
The new monthly themed high teas launch this month, on Sunday 17th November with a Greek High Tea 12.30pm-2.30pm. Inspired by much-loved Greek dishes, it really is a taste of Greece, high tea style.
