There's a Hidden High Tea Cafe at Lanson Place MOA

Cafes are all the rage these days. One scroll through your Instagram or TikTok feed and you'll most likely chance upon someone showcasing their coffee, tea, or some fancy beverage in an ~aesthetic~ place. We can't help it—cafes are great places to rest, relax, unwind, bond with loved ones, and even work. If you're on the hunt for another cafe to bookmark for your next day out with your best girls—we're here to let you in on our latest find: Madeleine High Tea at Lanson Place in SM Mall of Asia!

Madeleine High Tea, as the name suggests, is a cafe that specializes in artisanal teas and high tea sets. They also have a selection of delectable cakes, pastries, and breads to satisfy and hit that comfort food spot we all look for sometimes. They pride themselves in serving a selection of premium teas from Agusan del Norte—Nature's Apothecary.


Recently, we got treated to an afternoon at Madeleine to sample their high tea sets and get to know tea a little better. The cafe is a beautiful albeit hidden space (you turn right upon entering the main lobby), with a ceiling adorned with a stunning Leeroy New installation you simply can't miss.



After checking out the space, we gathered to listen to a tea sommelier teach us the basics of tea, learning the different kinds, as well as food pairings to try. It was shaping up to be an educational afternoon! After the short lecture, we got to sample six different teas steeped from loose leaves, and savored each sip. We don't get to do tea degustations every day, do we? It truly was a moment to remember.

The tea tasting session prepared us well for the next segment which was the sampling of the high tea sets. We got to try sweet and savory sets, which include the traditional scones and clotted cream, madeleines, macarons, and the like. There were tiny sandwiches and delicious snacks that were perfectly matched with our choices of tea. The best part about their high tea sets? They won't cost you an arm and a leg to get to experience a plush setting, delicious treats, and A+ service.

Madeleine's high tea sets go for the following rates:

  • Traditional High Tea set - P1750 for two
  • Contemporary High Tea set - P1950 for two
  • Signature High Tea set - P2150 for two

Not bad for a luxurious experience, I must say!


If you're ready to set that date or girls' afternoon out, log on to the Lanson Place website to place a reservation. Madeleine High Tea is open from Fridays to Sundays, 2 to 5 pm.
