"Verzênay Chicago, founded and led by Chef and owner Arshiya Farheen, is a truly interesting and inviting high tea meeting place brings that French pastry expertise to every detail of the menu. One of the most delightful touches here is the personal care the host puts into preparing teas and coffee for guests. The sandwiches and sweets pair nicely with the handcrafted beverages, making it a pleasant spot for both casual meetups and more relaxed business conversations. Overall, the atmosphere and offerings make it a very good place to hold a meeting or simply enjoy a thoughtful, high-quality high tea experience."

"Our group had a private tea event in the afternoon and the food was absolutely delicious. My favorite thing was the Swan choux with a surprise strawberry jam on the inside when you took a bite. My photo was just a partial amount of the food offered. It was somewhat pricy due to the large party and gratuity, but we had 2 types of tea from a nice selection of mixes, a huge amount of sweets & savory food that filled me up, and fantastic wait staff that kept stopping by to refill the hot water and check if we wanted another tea selection. Their holiday tea is definitely worth a visit!❄️☃️ Definitely recommend making a reservation and stopping by💖"

"I went here for a holiday tea service and it was wonderful. The amount of savories vs. sweets had a nice balance and standouts were the cream puffs and chicken slider. We were a large group but service managed to be orderly and fast. The blue tea was also good. Love this place!"

"This was my first time here, this is a very cute cafe in my opinion. Its perfect for a ladies day out and a quick lunch. Their staff is amazing, they were so polite, friendly and helpful in nature. Special shout out to Nicole, she went above and beyond to wrap my to go dessert, as I had an hour drive back home in almost 100 degree weather. I also met Arshiya the owner, very down to earth and friendly person, she took the time to stop and talk to me, even though she was on her way out. I loved everything I tried here. If you're looking for authentic, European style croissants, that taste just like the kind you may have tried on your travels, I highly recommend you try it here. I really miss the ones I tried in Zurich and the croissants here were nearly identical to the ones from Zurich. We tried the chicken salad on a croissant and egg &cheese on a croissant, both were fresh and tasty. Their desserts are to die for, do not miss out, I tried the Royale, Paris brest and the mango cheesecake and all three were amazing. For drinks, I got the Parisian rain and it was very good. I recommend it if you like iced tea with a creamy taste. The only con I have are the hours, I live almost an hour away and would love it if there were evening hours too so I could come after work on a day with my friends 🧡"

"The food is delicious 😋, especially the chicken salad croissant, the breakfast sandwich on brioche, and the spinach and kale quiche. These are some of the best items on the menu. The matcha is also very good. The waiters and chefs are always smiling, the place is clean, and the atmosphere is relaxing. Although there's usually a long queue on weekends, it's definitely worth the wait."
