A Roald Dahl Afternoon Tea 

We are delighted to be the official Afternoon Tea partner for Roald Dahl 100 this summer marking the centenary of the birth of the much loved author! Our Executive Chef Dale Osborne and Head Chef Pip Sandrey have stepped into Roald Dahl's world of 'pure imagination' to create a captivating Afternoon Tea which brings his magical stories to life.

The menu is presented in a book and hidden within, you can read and then nibble on the edible menu. Each element of the tea, served in Charlie’s Great Glass Elevator, allows you to reminisce and revel in childhood nostalgia. 

Mr Twit’s very own bird pie from the famous story is encased in buttery puff pastry complete with ‘bird's legs’ poking out of the top. Sophie and The BFG’s quest to Buckingham Palace is brought to life in a ‘breakfast’ sandwich and The Giraffe and the Pelly and Me features with the Pelly’s favourite smoked salmon sandwiches which are topped with trout caviar. Amongst the sweet treats the famous ‘formula 86’ from the frightening favourite The Witches sits hidden inside chocolate mice, the Roly-Poly Bird choux bun is complete with an impressive colourful tail and of course there is a 'giant peach' meringue!

The Afternoon Tea is available Monday to Friday 1-5pm from 4th July to 30th September.

Stay tuned on Instagram and Twitter for more details and photos of the menu.
