QTea High Tea X Cakeboi

Novocastrian talents collide at QTea x Cakeboi, a delicious manifesto of modern high tea.

An elegant rebellion against tradition, this two-course affair promises tiers, trolleys and an appetite for the unconventional. With savouries by our very own Executive Chef Shayne Mansfield, and sweets by local legend Reece Hignell of Cakeboi – you won’t want to miss a lick of it.

Start with overstuffed stands of Shayne’s house delicacies, brimming with charcoal bread, duck leg croquettes, and mini Merguez sausage pies. Then, make way for our roving Cakeboi Trolley. Claim your slice of layered Urban Hum Honey cake or flag down the fluffiest Victoria strawberry sponge. Overindulge with every sweet on offer, as it’s served directly from trolley to table.

And let’s not forget ‘tea’. QTea begins with a riotous welcome, with a signature Ketel Iced Tea cocktail. Rebellious in spirit, this cocktail has been infused with premium Ketel One Vodka, and sips perfectly alongside the goodies galore. Prefer to flex your littlest finger without a boozy punch of fun? We’ve got you covered. Delight in our bespoke QT Breakfast Tea blend, made by local Tea merchant, The Tea Collective.

Tradition be darned, this is delicious defiance that simply crushes the conventional. Naturally, there’s an equally sumptuous plant-based menu to enjoy.

QTea is available to book from $75 per guest from in signature restaurant, Jana.
