The food is always beautifully presented and delicious, the high tea is such good value with bottomless refills of tea and any food items you want more of. The staff are always kind and so professional, thank you to Tanya for her amazing service! One of mine and my husband’s favourite spots for a special treat.
Lovely quiet setting on a Monday afternoon for High Tea. Relaxing view. Great service. Very good tea selection. Food was satisfying but not overly sweet or rich. Great selection of foods. A very special celebration. Thanks to the team and chefs.
Absolutely love this place. I have been so many times for so many occasions with friends and family and every time is perfect. Thomas and the rest of the team are really excellent and the food is always top notch. The Marion is definitely the best spot for afternoon tea and special events in Canberra.
Went to the Marion for my besties 60th Birthday. We had a beautiful hightea, cocktails and bubbles. The food was beautiful and service on point. An amazing view of Lake Burley Griffin. We were over 30min late due to road works throughout Canberra city but the Marion staff were very understanding and held our booking despite being extremely busy. Thank you.
Chic and accessible. Went here for my 55th birthday. Had a divine high tea. The French waiter was a delight. Had a 1 and 3 years old with us and they were well catered for, high chair and kind praise for them trying all the yummy snacks. We ordered 3 of the High teas, which upon arrival did not look like enough food. It was wonderful and surprisingly filling. The views are spectacular. The atmosphere was formal yet approachable. Definitely a space for any occasion. Accessibility friendly for all. Very calming for those in your party with sensory challenges. Absolutely delightful.
