Start the Britsburgh Festival in Style—Afternoon Tea!
As is tradition, the Britsburgh Festival begins with elegance and history at our Afternoon Tea at Mansions on Fifth, held each year on Labor Day. Join us on Monday, September 1st, for a timeless afternoon filled with delicious fare, rich conversation and the excitement of the 11th Annual Britsburgh Festival.
You’ll enjoy an elegant spread of delectable tea sandwiches, a variety of pastries, and (back by popular demand!) home made scones served with clotted cream and jam. As always our proper tea service will transport you to Great Britain.
We'll continue our celebration of the 80th Anniversary of the end of WWII by featuring a Western PA connection ...on site will be a 1941 Jeep model called the BRC-40. This model was manufactured by the American Bantam Car Company, Butler PA, one of the earliest proto-types for what would become the iconic 'Jeep'. Bantam built 2,675 BRC-40's, some were sent to the UK and Soviet Union under the Lend-Lease program, making it the first Jeep to see combat. The Jeep on display comes from the Butler Historical Museum courtesy of John Pro.
