Lunch on the lawn at the Fairmont Empress: A summer experience you don’t want to miss

This quintessential summer pastime in Victoria, done only as the Empress can, is back by popular demand for summer 2021. It’s the ultimate al fresco dining experience on the hotel’s iconic front lawns, with stunning views of the Inner Harbour.

Reserve your very own harbour facing picnic spot complete with blankets, pillows, and a basket brimming with delicious upscale food. Even little ones have their own specially prepared menu to join the party with finger-licking treats. Elevate your experience with a bottle of Veuve Clicquot champagne, or cocktails from our full Q Bar menu.

Guests can enjoy an afternoon picnic in the hotel’s front lawn, indulging in champagne and finger foods; but this is not your typical picnic, it is beautiful with little tables on picnic blankets, comfy pillows and great service! We had a wonderful experience with beautiful Harbour views.
