Introducing the Wizard Afternoon Tea in York: A Magical Adventure for Families!
If you’re looking for a unique and enchanting way to enjoy an afternoon out with the kids, York’s Potions Academy has brewed up something truly special. Nestled on the iconic Shambles, Europe’s most photographed street, the Wizard Afternoon Tea is set to become a must-visit experience for families looking for delicious treats and magical memories. Here’s why this quirky afternoon tea is perfect for your little witches and wizards.
A magical setting in the heart of York
The Potions Academy is not your average tearoom. It’s a world where spellbooks come to life, potion bottles line the walls and you can let your imagination run wild. Located in the heart of York, overlooking the city’s own Diagon Alley, it offers an immersive experience that starts the moment you make your way up the staircase.
A bewitching menu for everyone
The Potions Academy Wizard Afternoon Tea isn’t just a feast for the eyes, it sounds tasty too. We love that all of the ingredients come from places on the wonderful Shambles, making it a unique York experience that supports local independent businesses. Here’s what to expect.
- – Lesson 1: Begin your magical journey with a selection of “sorcery sandwiches,” sausage rolls, and pork pies, served with a potion of your choice. These savoury treats are sure to satisfy even the pickiest eaters.
- – Lesson 2: Next, enjoy a freshly baked scone with jam and cream, accompanied by a steaming hot drink conjured by the resident witch.
- – Lesson 3: Finish off with a trio of desserts, including a fairy cake, a magician’s macaron, and a whimsical chocolate frog perched on a bed of “unicorn tears.”
Vegetarian options are available with advance notice, so make sure you mention your dietary requirements at least two days before booking (academy@thepotionscauldron.com).
