Everywhere you go, it's pop-up pop-up pop-up. POP.

To me, it was a cool idea, but we're a shop that depends on our regulars--who come in, day in and day out, and we are required to be there, as dependable as anything (excepting electrical disasters and painting...ahem), so a pop-up didn't seem to fit us.

But then we thought--why not use it for crazy ideas that we'd love to do but could never manage inside our shop? So, first up is our Summer pop-up afternoon tea over at Cardinal Place in Victoria. (Yes we're venturing south!)

Come and celebrate summer with us in the outdoors--we have a lovely grassy area and a fun way to eat afternoon tea outdoors! Can't do that in our shop.

Enjoy a full afternoon tea with savoury baguettes, scones, clotted cream, jam, victoria sponge, fruit tarts, brownies, cupcakes, marshmallows, meringues, and financiers! All to enjoy with a glass of Champagne and a glass of Pimms Cup (the perfect summer cocktail) for only 25 GBP per person.

The dates: Saturday and Sunday, MAY 22/23, MAY 29/30
Bookings from noon - 6 pm
25 GBP, includes glass of champagne and Pimms cup (YUM!)
