Chef’s Choice of Assorted Finger Sandwiches Selection of Cakes, including Mini Mince Pies Scones – plain and sultana Strawberry Jam Clotted Cream

Your choice of Tea: Earl Grey, Assam, English Breakfast, Darjeeling, Green Tea, Camomile, Peppermint, Cranberry, Raspberry and Elderflower, Lemon and Ginger Coffee or Hot Chocolate
