A Halloween Afternoon Tea at
THE WITCHING HOUR
in partnership with
As dusk falls over Borough Market, something wickedly wonderful begins to stir…
This Halloween, the witches have arrived at ROAST, transforming our Butterfly Meadow into an enchanted world of flickering candlelight, mysterious potions and a little Halloween magic.
Step inside The Witching Hour, our spellbinding Halloween Afternoon Tea, where ROAST favourites meet devilishly delicious creations. Expect hauntingly beautiful sweets, seasonal savouries and freshly baked scones, all served amongst the flowers, butterflies and darker creatures that have taken over the meadow.
This year, we’ve joined forces with Don Julio to bring a little extra spirit to the occasion. Sip specially created Halloween cocktails alongside your Afternoon Tea, or add a glass of Veuve Clicquot for a suitably sparkling celebration.
Whether you’re gathering your own coven or simply looking for an Afternoon Tea with a darker side, take your seat before the spell is broken.
