Christmas Dinner Afternoon Tea

Sun 7th Dec 2025 - 1pm

Introducing… the Christmas Dinner Afternoon Tea!

You’ve heard of turkey with all the trimmings, but have you ever had it stacked on a three-tier stand? For four dates only, we’re serving up the very best bits of Christmas dinner… reinvented as afternoon tea in our Music Room. Just to be clear, this is NOT our annual festive afternoon tea which we serve for months, this is four special afternoons of something VERY different!

We are serving up this absolute BEAUTY on December 6, 7, 20 and 26. You will arrive after 1pm on each of the four days for a welcome drink and to be seated for Christmas Dinner Afternoon Tea at 1.30pm. Think the best of Christmas Dinner imagined as an afternoon tea. It's so good, we've applied for a trademark. No, really. This is the first Christmas Dinner Afternoon Tea EVER!
