Q at the Fairmont Empress is a refined tea house and restaurant inside the Fairmont Empress Hotel, offering a well-regarded vegan menu alongside gluten-free and traditional options. Known for its elegant afternoon tea experience with live pianist accompaniment, its vegan offerings include chia pudding, smoothie bowls, tofu scramble, and a vegan high tea platter. While the venue is upscale and pricier, the courteous service and allergy-friendly accommodations stand out, though some guests note the vegan food can be less flavorful and portions smaller than expected.
