VE Day Afternoon Tea

Celebrate Victory in Europe with a traditional afternoon tea at the majestic 16th century Hoghton Tower in our stunning Banqueting Hall (2pm – 4pm).

Our friendly team will serve a delicious selection of sweet and savoury delights including savouries and sandwiches, a fresh scone served with clotted cream and jam and other sweet treats.  All this paired with freshly brewed tea or coffee.

All the while be entertained by Poppy Holliday who will be singing live classic 1940’s tunes.

For an extra special treat, why not upgrade to a glass of prosecco or bottle of beer?

We are happy to cater for dietary requirements proving that they are included at the time of booking. However, please be aware that, our kitchen does handle products containing allergens and that, although we take care during food preparation, we cannot guarantee that there will be no cross contamination.
