Lavender Bistro & Boutique
The scent of lavender wafting through the air, if you close your eyes you could almost pretend you’re in the French countryside… at least, it might be as close as we’re going to get anytime soon.

The Parisian- inspired Bistro Guillaume offers a decadent afternoon tea on Saturday afternoons, while the glamorous TWR bar offers their uniquely crafted High Coffee board every day – think chocolate cigars filled with mandarin ganache, mini spheres filled with citrus champagne curd and candied clementine, or Grand Marnier infused macarons.

Fittingly, Moore & Moore’s high tea has a Freo-flavoured twist.
