What travellers are saying
- sunset533Stoney Creek, Canada17 contributionsDespite the extreme cold, rainy weather, and the long uncovered walkway to the tea room, the high tea was an experience not to be forgotten. Young lady provided excellent service, despite only being 2 people serving a full tea house. Prices are expensive, not only for the high tea but for the entire menu. Finger sandwiches were good (4), fresh fruit, tarts, along with 3 great spreads for 2 tea biscuits...2 people are given the same tower with food on it, and 1 guest is given her own. If you'd prefer coffee, it's freshly brewed very accommodating.
Washrooms are immediately outside the tea room, but very warm inside.
If you have walking issues, bring your walker, or cane, since it is a ways from the main building. You do not need to be a member of the RBG to go for lunch in the tea room. All in all, a fun experience with girlfriends getting together!Written December 10, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- TimCampbellSMSPuslinch, Canada47 contributionsVery cool! It's great for families as there's a park, lots of green spaces and a tiny (and I mean TINY) beach. You definitely have to pack in your own stuff to do.

- Leann G7 contributionsA wonderful place to experience art in many different forms.
Whenever I am downtown Burlington, I like to pop into the AGB and see what is new. If I need a special, unique gift, I will find it in the Gift Shop.
Admission is free and it is very child friendly. If you have mobility issues, don't worry it is cane, walker and wheelchair friendly.
Members of the various guilds are happy to talk about their craft/art.
Classes (when permitted) are a great value. I have taken hand pottery and wheel pottery classes there and loved them. I am very proud of my little creations. The educators are knowledgeable, friendly and make learning fun!Written December 19, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
