Halloween Afternoon Tea at Sopwell House

Trick or Treat, Trick or Treat, give us something good to eat...

With fang-tastic delights such as the Chocolate brownie grave, Ghost meringue, Eyeball jelly, Pumpkin tart, Bleeding cupcake and Web carrot cakes, there is something ghoulishly delightful for everyone. No tricks, just treats…

Carve your freshly baked scones and smother them with Devonshire clotted cream and strawberry preserve.

Sopwell House will serve the array of spooktacular cakes and sandwiches in the Restaurant or Cocktail Lounge this autumn. The limited edition Halloween Afternoon Tea will be available daily, commencing on 29 October until 4 November 2018, from 12.30pm until 5pm.

Priced at £25.95 per person, or £35.95 per person including Champagne, this Halloween themed Afternoon Tea is the perfect way to celebrate the eerie occasion.

Sopwell House is a stunning Georgian manor house located in the city of St. Albans within the Hertfordshire countryside. Located only 20 minutes from London St. Pancras, the hotel is the idyllic getaway just outside of the hustle and bustle of the capital. The hotel is the perfect place to dine boasting two restaurants, an elegant cocktail lounge, and a conservatory bar, all of which look out on 12-acres of beautiful gardens.

Small Contribution. Big Impact.

The Staff Canteen has always been more than a website—it’s a community, built by and for hospitality. We share the wins, the challenges, the graft, and the inspiration that keeps kitchens alive.

We believe in staying open to everyone, but creating this content takes real resources. If you’ve ever found value here—whether it’s a recipe, an interview, or a laugh when you needed it most—consider giving just £3 to keep it going.

 

A little from you keeps this space free for all. Let’s keep lifting the industry, together.
