About this Event

Sunday, July 26 | 3:00 PM
Hamilton Prop House

All aboard!

Join us as our train winds its way through the picturesque villages and charming towns of England, where every stop tells a delicious story. Sip a proper pot of tea—or perhaps a cheeky cocktail—as you embark on a culinary journey celebrating the flavours, traditions, and debates that have made British afternoon tea famous around the world.

Is it a barm, bap, cob, roll, biscuit, or bun? We'll explore the regional names and traditions that make England's food culture so wonderfully unique.

Travel through Devon and Cornwall as we settle the age-old question: Jam first or cream first? Discover the sweet delights of Kentish tarts, learn the story behind London's famous puddings, and celebrate the culinary genius of the Earl of Sandwich and the Duchess of Bedford, whose inventions forever changed the way the world dines.

Fans of Bridgerton, Downton Abbey, Coronation Street, and Keeping Up Appearances will delight in familiar references as our very own Mrs. Bucket (that's Bouquet, of course!) welcomes you for an unforgettable afternoon aboard the train. And yes... someone will indeed receive the Royal Doulton cup with the hand-painted periwinkles.

Your traditional afternoon tea includes:

🫖 A selection of classic English tea sandwiches
🥧 A variety of traditional British savouries
🍓 Freshly baked scones served with house-made preserves and cream
🍰 An assortment of beloved British sweets and pastries
🍮 Traditional English trifle

Relax, laugh, indulge, and let your taste buds carry you across England without ever leaving Hamilton. From quaint villages to grand traditions, this is more than afternoon tea—it's an immersive experience celebrating the comfort, history, and charm of Britain's most cherished culinary customs.

Seats are limited aboard the train, so reserve yours today.
