To celebrate the release of Roald Dahl's The BFG this summer, Ellenborough Parks' Executive Head Chef David Kelman has bought to life the celebrated children's classic with a special afternoon tea.

Available until the end of August and starting at £22 per person, the wonderful world of The BFG comes to life with this delicious menu. David Kelman's take on the famous tale takes you on a nostalgic journey through gastronomy.

Served on a wooden platter, tuck into the BFG's favourite, the Snozzcumber – a black and white cucumber flavoured sponge cake. The Dream Catcher Horn is a crunchy brandy snap filled with mascarpone cream and Dreams in a Jar is a delicious lemon and raspberry posset with a spiced smoke. The famous breakfast created by Mr Tibbs incorporates eggs, sausages, bacon and fried potatoes in a hearty quiche. Finally, wash everything down with the famous Frobscottle – a green bubbly drink flavoured with vanilla and raspberry.

Enjoy the BFG afternoon tea with a range of delicious cucumber sandwiches, a selection of loose blends from Ellenborough Park's tea chest and a chilled flute of Champagne Billecart-Salmon Champagne. The perfect way to round off an afternoon of childhood memories.

The BFG Afternoon Tea at Ellenborough Park is available between 18th July – 31st August, priced at £22 per person (Monday – Thursday) and £25 per person (Friday – Sunday).
Add a glass of Champagne Billecart-Salmon for £12
