Based on the popularity and user ratings on Tagvenue (updated September 2025), the best options include:

  • Entire Venue at Frontside Food & Wine in Port Melbourne - rated 5/5
    Our user said: ‘Venue manager and catering staff was very friendly and extremely professional in attending the guests...’

  • Miss Morgan at The Victoria Hotel in Melbourne CBD - rated 4.9/5
    Our user said: ‘It was exactly what we needed for a work dinner. Emma, the Venue Manager, was great to work with too!’

  • Level 1 at The Oxford Scholar in Melbourne CBD - rated 4.8/5
    Our user said: ‘Easy to find, nice decor. Great space. Good value with having a minimum spend, instead of a hire fee.’

The main difference is the timing and type of food: high tea is a bigger meal later in the day, while afternoon tea is a lighter, mid-afternoon treat. In Australia, high tea is like a hearty dinner enjoyed in the evening, with dishes like meat, bread, and veggies. On the other hand, afternoon tea is a lighter, more social event in the late afternoon, featuring finger sandwiches, scones, and pastries with tea.
