Calling all Swifties! Whether you’re reliving your favourite eras or embracing your Wildest Dreams, Norwood Hotel has crafted an experience that will make you feel like the main character in a Taylor Swift song.
At the heart of it? A Taylor Swift-themed High Tea at Pauline Bistro, complete with decadent treats and dreamy decor. But why stop at just tea? Turn High Tea into a full getaway with a stay at Norwood Hotel, exploring Winnipeg, indulging in delicious dining and making memories that would make Taylor proud. Here’s how to make the most of a Swift-inspired escape.
Nestled in the heart of St. Boniface, Norwood Hotel is a blend of charm and modern comfort. With cozy accommodations and thoughtful amenities, it’s an ideal spot for your Enchanted escape. After checking in, take a moment to settle into your room before heading out to the main event.
Step into the Parisian-inspired bistro that sets the stage for an unforgettable afternoon. High Swift Tea (Pauline Version) is a love letter to Taylor Swift’s iconic eras, offering a menu filled with sweet and savoury delights inspired by her lyrics and albums.
The Experience:
Be sure to capture the moment with Insta-worthy table settings and Taylor-themed decor, then toast to your shared love for all things T-Swift with a warm cup of tea, a cocktail or mocktail.
After tea, take a leisurely walk through St. Boniface, Winnipeg’s historic Francophone neighbourhood. Just steps from the Norwood Hotel, you’ll also find some of the city’s most charming and picturesque spots.
Browsing at The Forks
If your getaway isn’t complete without a little retail therapy, head to The Forks Market, a go-to spot for unique finds and local treasures. Before you go, check The Forks event calendar. Whether it’s a live music performance or a themed pop-up, there’s always something happening that will have you feeling the excitement of a new era. We stopped by the Ode’imin Collective pop-up, where Indigenous artists and makers showcased beautifully crafted pieces.
After an afternoon of High Tea elegance and shopping, it’s time to Shake It Off and indulge in a hearty meal at The Wood Tavern. Warm and inviting, this restaurant serves up wood-fired cuisine with a nostalgic yet modern twist.
Need a recommendation? Try a fire-kissed flatbread or an All Too Well-done steak - a dish that deserves its own encore. Pair it with a signature cocktail and toast to a day well spent.
Back in your hotel room, keep the Swiftie vibes going with a cozy night in. Throw on your comfiest pajamas, queue up Taylor Swift’s concert films or music videos and reminisce about your favourite moments of the day. A hotel stay always feels like a special treat and with Norwood’s plush accommodations, you’ll be resting easy.
Pro Tip: Bring along facemasks and spa essentials to elevate your getaway and channel your own Lavender Haze self-care moment.
Wake up and head back to Pauline for a delightful breakfast before check-out. Whether you’re craving a buttery croissant, a classic eggs benedict or a sweet chia bowl, it’s a great way to wrap up your experience in Style.
Don’t miss out on this Taylor Swift-inspired getaway! Whether you're a lifelong Swiftie or just love a unique themed experience, this High Tea and stay at Norwood Hotel is an adventure worth celebrating.
