Historical/Hysterical Afternoon Tea at Sigginstown Castle

Prudence Stoddard lives in the 18th century and will be your hostess for this Historical & Hysterical Tea Party in the newly renovated Coach House Cafe.

This experience brings people together for an afternoon tea experience like no other! You will drink the teas that would have been available in the 18th century, and eat food that evolved into the classic afternoon tea of the 21st century. All food has history and these delicious choices, savory and sweet ,will delight your palate while enlightening your brain with history, fun and participation. Prudence will tell you about the three new beverages: tea, coffee and chocolate, while explaining each round of food: savory, scone and sweet. You will have plenty of time to relax, enjoy your food and beverage, and meet new people. Lots of Laughter Expected!
