WE’RE EXCITED TO CELEBRATE THIS CHRISTMAS WITH YOU….
In addition to opening Thursdays, Fridays & Saturdays in December we are open on Sundays too.
To help you celebrate the festive period we are also open everyday from Tuesday 19th until New Years Eve (with the exception of Christmas Day, we will be busy stuffing our faces with turkey!)
Whether you’re catching up with friends or family or want to take advantage of our festive bottomless afternoon tea we promise a visit filled with the perfect mix of sophistication, luxury and indulgence.
Deposits & Card Details
As we get really busy in December it is necessary to secure your reservation with a deposit or by providing your card details. In the case of a deposit, or pre-payment, this is taken off your tables bill at the end of the evening. Where we take card details to secure your reservation, a £10 per guest no show fee will only be charged should you not turn up for your reservation or cancel with less than 24 hours notice.

The Food
A three-tiered afternoon tea is a classic British tradition that is perfect for sharing. Our first tier features finger sandwiches & savoury wraps. The second tier is where you will find your scones served with clotted cream and jam, and the third tier offers our festive sweet treats.
It is the perfect choice for a special occasion or for an afternoon catch-up with friends when you’re fed up of the kitchen left overs and can’t face another pig in blanket. You won’t find any actual tea with us here at The Nuthatch but there’s plenty of drinks choice to accompany your delicious food.
The Drinks
Your afternoon tea booking lasts for 90 minutes, and during that time you will receive a festive three tier afternoon tea to share complemented with a selection of bottomless drinks, you can choose from:
- Prosecco
- Beefeater Pink Gin & Mixer
- Beefeater Gin & Mixer
- Beefeater Blood Orange & Mixer
…and of course, no visit to The Nuthatch would be complete without cocktails – our Festive Afternoon Tea Menu includes:
A sweet and tangy twist on the classic mojito. Made with fresh mint, house-made pineapple syrup, pineapple juice, a good splash of rum and topped with soda. Perfect for hot summer days.
The Classic Mojito is a refreshing rum-based cocktail with a blend of fresh lime juice, mint leaves, sugar & soda. It’s perfect for hot summer days with its cool, sweet, and tart taste. Garnished with a sprig of mint, umbrella and a slice of lime.
The Nuthatch twist on a classic Pornstar Martini. We swap a Prosecco shot for a house-made Champagne Foam.
The French Martini is a fruity, sweet, and smooth cocktail that is perfect for those who enjoy a drink with a touch of elegance. Made with vodka, pineapple juice, and Raspberry liqueur, the cocktail has a beautiful light pink color with a slightly frothy texture.
Aperol Spritz is a refreshing Italian cocktail made with Aperol, Prosecco, soda water, and a slice of orange and fresh rosemary for garnish. Pairs perfectly with some of our Petit Fours.
The Festive Spritz is a refreshing and bubbly cocktail that’s perfect for celebrating the holiday season. This spritz-style drink is light and effervescent, combining the tangy flavors of fresh cranberry juice and orange liqueur with the crispness of italian Prosecco.
The Cranberry Margarita is a vibrant and festive cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. Made with El Jimador tequila, this cocktail features a delightful blend of tangy cranberry juice, zesty lime juice, and a touch of sweet agave syrup for balance.
Try the banana and hazelnut amaretto sour for a decadent and unique cocktail. With a blend of sweet banana liqueur, rich hazelnut amaretto, tart lemon juice, and frothy egg white, it’s the perfect balance of sweet and sour with a nutty twist.
The pomegranate bramble cocktail is a refreshing cocktail, perfect for a mid-summers Saturday afternoon made with Beefeater gin, a hint of lemon juice & topped with Pomegranate syrup. Sure to delight anyone who enjoys fruity cocktails.
The Strawberry Bramble puts a fruity twist on the Classic Bramble cocktail. Made with premium gin, house-made strawberry syrup & lemon juice this sweet and tangy drink features crushed ice and fresh strawberries as a garnish.
Brandy Alexander the sweet and creamy drink made with Courvoisier VS, crème de cacao, and plenty of cream. Not one for a calorie counter.
