Birmingham​のベストカフェダイニング

Booked a tea experience at Lily's & Elise to make up for a missed tea event on a Cruise in December. What we got was beyond our expectations in every way! The staff was wonderful (esp. Crystal), the food was spectacular in presentation, taste, and portion size, and the property was in tip top shape, including the rest rooms! My wife and I went for afternoon tea which some might think would be a few things to "nibble". It was essentially a lunch for two (with a raft of exotic teas) and a dessert tray to rivaled most of those I've seen in this vicinity. We'll be going back soon ... especially now that we've found out they have a robust menu including breakfast, brunch, tea, and "patisserie" ( read French pastries). Based on our conversation with Anna, the manager, the concept for the operation came from an establishment in NIce, France. We'll be in Nice this spring and we are sure it will bring back memories for us of Lily's & Elise on Livernois!

It was my first time going and the process of ordering food/drinks was not explained. We sat at the table for about 10 minutes before I had to flag someone down to inquire about the wait. I was eventually updated and things went smoothly afterwards. They should make a point to inquire about informing guests of ordering procedures prior to sitting down.

Luxurious look, good food and drink. Buzzy lobby.
