The Food

Our head chef will whip up a lavish Afternoon Tea featuring the very finest, fresh local produce. Each sweet and savoury treat has been designed to reflect traditional British flavours. Sample a selection of delicate sandwiches, warm scones served with lashings of jam and clotted cream, exquisite savouries, and indulgent sweet treats. 

The Drinks

We will be offering guests a range of tea and coffee, as well as a complimentary glass of Prosecco to toast the monarch.
